Hi everyone,
I installed Fedora on my computer a few days ago. I figured I would try out the c++ compiler, so I made a simple program and ran gcc on it. However, I get errors about things in the standard library files (<iostream>). Anyone have any suggestions? This is a fresh install.
Thanks for any help!
Some details would be really good. ie, example program you tried, g++ compile command you used ??.
Here is a simple one:
#include <iostream>
/*using namespace std;*/ int main (int argc, char **argv) { cout << "Hello world\n"; }
Notice the /*using namespace std;*/ bit. You either uncomment it, or use full qualification to cout ( std::cout)
You need these rpm packages installed:
gcc-c++-3.3.2-1 libstdc++-devel-3.3.2-1
and possibly compat-libstdc++-devel-7.3-2.96.118 depending on what you are doing..
Note that these are probably not the versions that come with ISO of Fedora, I keep my system up to date with yum.
Finally how to compile it - 'g++ -o Hello Hello.cpp' will compile source file Hello.cpp and save the binary in 'Hello' .
Cheers, Michael
