g++ 'nullptr' was not declared in this scope

Question

I'm using gcc-4.7.1 on windows 8 Release Preview with git-bash.

$ g++ -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=c:\Users\nikhil bhardwaj\mingw64\bin\g++.exe

Thread model: win32
gcc version 4.7.1 20120524 (prerelease) (GCC)

When I try to compile a small code snippet,

using namespace std;
struct node
{
    int data;
    node *left, *right;
};
node *newNode(int data)
{
    node *node = new (struct node);
    node->data = data;
    node->left = nullptr;
    node->right = NULL;
    return node;
}

I get this error,

$ g++ -I../includes bst.cpp
bst.cpp: In function 'node* newNode(int)':
bst.cpp:13:18: error: 'nullptr' was not declared in this sc
bst.cpp:14:19: error: 'NULL' was not declared in this scope

I'm not able to use either NULL or nullptr, do I need to include some header files?

Solution

Try in c++11 mode:

g++ -std=c++11 -I../includes bst.cpp
