This is the C header file for strings, which knows nothing about the C++
string type. The correct C++ header file is
  #include <string>

Furthermore, if you are using gcc 3.0, you should note that the string type
is part of the std namespace; hence instead of 'string' you type
'std::string' or put a 'using namespace std;' in your cpp file.
