/usr/include/c++/8/cstdlib:75:15: fatal error: stdlib.h: No such file or directory

I'm a beginner in linux and when I was running my first program "HELLOWORLD" on my raspberry pi this warning appeared:

pi@raspberrypi:~/raspitest $ g++ test.cpp -o test
In file included from /usr/include/c++/8/ext/string_conversions.h:41,
                 from /usr/include/c++/8/bits/basic_string.h:6400,
                 from /usr/include/c++/8/string:52,
                 from /usr/include/c++/8/bits/locale_classes.h:40,
                 from /usr/include/c++/8/bits/ios_base.h:41,

                 from /usr/include/c++/8/ostream:38,
                 from /usr/include/c++/8/iostream:39,
                 from test.cpp:1:

 #include_next <stdlib.h>
               ^~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

I was not using any make tools, just wrote the code via vim and ran the following command: pi@raspberrypi:~/raspitest $ g++ test.cpp -o test

The stdlib.h should have been in the right path:

pi@raspberrypi:~/raspitest $ locate stdlib.h
/opt/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.1/SystemFiles/Links/ArduinoLink/Resources/CSource/avr-libc/1.8.1/avr/include/stdlib.h
/usr/include/stdlib.h
/usr/include/arm-linux-gnueabihf/bits/stdlib.h
/usr/include/c++/8/stdlib.h
/usr/include/c++/8/tr1/stdlib.h
/usr/include/freetype2/freetype/config/ftstdlib.h

here are my original code:

#include<iostream>
#include<stdlib.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    cout <<"hello,world" << endl;
    return 0;
}

and here is the output of g++ -v test.cpp:

On my case I was missing build-essential package. Try running this:

apt-get update
apt-get install build-essential

You may need to run them using sudo.

I met the same question, and the reason is that I set export C_INCLUDE_PATH="/usr/include/" in my ~/.zshrc file.

When I use g++ -v a.cpp as above, /usr/include is in the top of lines, so comment this env variable, error is disappeared..

Thanks for the hints from the comments. Here is my soloution: add

export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/c++/8:$CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH

to ~/.bashrcfile. If still not working, try to reboot or copy all the headfiles to a new folder and change the cplus_path again.
