How to store a complete sentence with white spaces in a string in cpp?

Question

I want to store "What is wrong with you?" in a string str in cpp but when I run this code it only stores "What" in ·str·.

How can I store the complete sentence in the string.

#include<iostream>
#include<string.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    string str;
    cin>>str;
    cout<<str;
}

Input:

What is wrong with you?

Output:

What

What if you type `What\ is\ wrong\ with\ you?` ? Just to check — Thomas Ayoub, Jun 10 '15 at 13:48
C != C++ and you should generally only tag the language you are writing/compiling. — crashmstr, Jun 10 '15 at 13:48
