That's probably because CW8 did the (non-standard/pre-standard) trick
of putting everything in the global namespace. vector is in the std
namespace and as such you'll need to do one of the following:

1) Add "using namespace std;" to your file in order to bring in the
whole std namespace
2) Add "using std::vector" in order to just bring in vector
3) Use the fully qualified "std::vector" wherever you currently use "vector"

Personally, #2 is the option that I usually go for (i.e. just pull in
the symbols that I use).
