It was the smoothest install of any Fedora Core that I have attempted. However, I am having a problem using the gnu compiler in particular with g++. I have written a simple hello world program: #include <iostream> int main(void) { std::cout <<"Hello, World!" << std::endl; return 0; } and attempted to compile it using the command: [aha@boombata devel]$ g++ -o hello hello.cc hello.cc:1:20: error: iostream: No such file or directory hello.cc: In function 'int main()': hello.cc:5: error: 'cout' is not a member of 'std' hello.cc:5: error: 'endl' is not a member of 'std' As you can see for some reason iostream.h is not being found, even though I have confirmed it's existence: [aha@boombata backward]$ ls /usr/include/c++/4.1.2/backward/iostream.h /usr/include/c++/4.1.2/backward/iostream.h Now I may be in the wrong place for such a question, but does anyone have any about how to fix this problem. I am embarrassed to call myself a developer :( Regards -- Aquil H. Abdullah aquil.abdullah@xxxxxxxxx -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Aquil, You are missing something. I tried your simple hello program using both c++ and g++ and it worked for me. [olivares@localhost Documents]$ c++ -o hello hello.cpp [olivares@localhost Documents]$ ./hello Hello, World! [olivares@localhost Documents]$ g++ -o hello2 hello2.c [olivares@localhost Documents]$ ./hello2 Hello, World! [olivares@localhost Documents]$ cat hello.cpp #include <iostream> int main(void) { std::cout <<"Hello, World!" << std::endl; return 0; } [olivares@localhost Documents]$ cat hello2.c #include <iostream> int main(void) { std::cout <<"Hello, World!" << std::endl; return 0; } [olivares@localhost Documents]$ Save the file as hello.c only or *.cpp and try it again.
