If there is a reason to believe not, please inform me. Huh? Did you look? What does thinking and believing have to do with anything? ls /usr/ports/lang | grep gcc gcc-objc gcc-ooo gcc28 gcc295 gcc30 gcc32 gcc33 gcc34 gcc40 gcc41 gcc41-withgcjawt gcc42 linux-libgcc It looks like every version of gcc from 2.8 to 4.2. BTW: I was wrong, the gcc ports are in /usr/ports/lang, not /usr/ports/devel. -- Bill Moran Collaborative Fusion Inc. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Have a look through /usr/ports/devel If you have a recent version of FreeBSD, it will have a recent version of GCC, and will compile compliant code without trouble. Since you provided no version information, nor errors, nor examples of failing code, I can't speculate further. -- Bill Moran Collaborative Fusion Inc. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
