I have recently downloaded the following version of g++
gcc-g++-3.4.2-20040916-1.tar.gz
I extracted all the files, and tried to compile the following simple
script;
#include "iostream.h"
int main()
{
cout << "Hello...\n";
}
I used the following command
g++ hello.C -o hello
this action caused numerous error messages. I suspect it had to do
with the include statement, ie the compiler could no locate the
include file. I tried adding the windows folder to the envirnoment
variable path, but this did not solve the problem
my past experiences with gcc (very dated) was that you added a number
of folders to the path statement via the autoexec.bat file. I
searched the newsgroups for a list of the folders to add but could not
locate this information. I also noted that while Windows NT used an
autoexec.nt file as a replacement for autoexec.bat, XP does not appear
to have a similar file. SO I am assuming I would have to add this
string to the environment variable under My Compuer-Properties-
Advanced-Environment Variables
appreciate any advice and tips.
TIA
