How do you compile your code?  I used your code and it worked perfectly.

Here's how I compiled it:
        g++ -o code1 code.cpp
Here's another way that also works (only with GCC 3.0 or newer):
        gcc -o code2 -lstdc++ code.cpp

(I really don't know the technical deference between the two ways.)
Hope this helps.
Ziyad.
