Here is the full gcc output when building as C++11:

test.cpp: In function 'int main()':
test.cpp:5:4: error: '_fileno' was not declared in this scope
    _fileno( f );
    ^~~~~~~
test.cpp:5:4: note: suggested alternative: '_filbuf'
    _fileno( f );
    ^~~~~~~
    _filbuf

According to:
  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/fileno
_fileno() shall be declared in stdio.h .
