I also am new to C and I tried this, put it in a file named test.c in my
home directory and then
entered this at the prompt (as root) 'cc test.c' and got this result:
'/usr/lib/crt1.o:In function '_start':'
'/usr/lib/crt1.o(.text.0x18):undefined reference in 'main''
'collect2: ld returned 1 exit status'
Does this mean that I dont have all the correct RPM's installed as well?
Sorry for the basic questions but I have been a VB guy for the last 6 years,
and know I have been given the challange of developing stuff for Linux
(Xwindows). Just starting long way to go!
Thanks for anything..
