    Compile Error

    When I try to compile with GCC, I am NOW getting this error:


    Code:
    C:\>gcc C:\C++\carp.cpp
    gcc.exe: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1plus': No such file Or directory
    (ENOENT)
    
    C:\>
    and I am using THIS code:

    Code:
    #include <isotream.h>			
    
    int main()				//Most important part of the program!
    
    {
    
      int age;				//Need a variable...
    
      cout<<"Please Input your age: ";	//Asks For age
    
      cin>>age;				//The Input is put In age
    
      if(age<100)				//If the age is less than 100
    
      {
    
         cout<<"You are pretty young!";     //Just To show it works
    
      }
    
      Else if(age==100)		//I use Else just To show an example 
    
      {
    
         cout<<"You are old";		//Just To show you it works...
    
      }
    
      Else
    
      {
    
        cout<<"You are really old";	//Executed If no other statement is executed
    
      }
    
      return 0;
    
    }

    Thanks alot.
    Thanks

    >>gcc.exe: installation problem
    Looks like you didn't set GCC up right to me.

    > #include <isotream.h>
    Should be <iostream>

    > Else
    Should be else

    Are you sure the gcc compiler can compile C++ code?
    Maybe you need to use g++ or egcc in stead?

    it does.

    yes gcc does compile c++ code. infact gcc compiles both c++ and c codes but nowadays g++ has become standard compiler for c++ codes if i am not wrong.

    Yes, it is possible, but not always configured/installed correct to do this.

    If you use the GCC compiler package, than gcc is the C compiler and gpp is the C++ compiler. According to the error message, you probably have installed the C compiler only and not the C++ compiler of the GCC package.
