string parsing to double fails in C++

Here's a fun one I've been trying to figure out. I have the following program:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sstream>

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    string s("5");
    istringstream stream(s);

    double theVal开发者_JS百科ue;
    stream >> theValue;

    cout << theValue << endl;
    cout << stream.fail();
}

The output is:

0
1

I don't understand why this is failing. Could somebody please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,

helixed

EDIT:

Okay, sorry to turn this into a double post, but this looks like a problem specific to Xcode. If I compile this in g++, the code works without a problem. Does anybody have an idea why this is happening in Xcode, and how I could possibly fix it?

Are you sure that's exactly what you're building? I get 5 and 0 as expected

Perhaps this is the problem you're having: stringstream question

See the accepted answer and the link therein. An example in the Apple discussion link sounds very much like what you're experiencing.
