In a way it is true, but the main problem is that he tries to use a C++ compiler to build C source. Consider a classic hello.c. This gives a working binary: g++ -x c hello.c This gives similar errors to NeedHelps: g++ -x c -c hello.c g++ -x c hello.o The problem is that in the link step you tell the compiler to treat hello.o as a C file. That fails. I have already given NeedHelp a solution/workaround in the thread "Configure "-x c" options with "--with-cflags" does not work for me." /MF ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
