getting "_throw_bad_array_new_lengthv" when trying to use std::vector::push_back inside a class

Question

I'm creating a custom language parser in C++, I'm struggling with a runtime error, where I have a std::vector<std::string> member of a class with a constructor. The full error is:

The procedure entry point
_ZSt28__throw_bad_array_new_lengthv could no be located
in the dynamic link library
"path_to_executable"

This error is throw whenever I try to use std::vector::push_back in my code, but shouldn't std::vector be a dynamically sized data container? Why is this error occurring?

Some of my codes:

I'm compiling my program with g++ on Windows: g++ test.cpp lib/cursor.cpp lib/lexer.cpp -o test.exe

I got the same error when compiling in command line using g++. But it works well in code blocks. To solve this problem try compiling with -static-libstdc++. It should solve the problem.
