    C++ Compiler

    I use Linux 7.1 , and i can compile C and Java , but now i tried to compile C++ and i got error massages.
    the program was
    #include<iostream.h> // or <iostream>
    void main(void)
    {cout << "hello\n";}
    i compiled with
    cc -o runningname file.cpp

    I think the error comes with the <iostream>,in the /usr/include directory i see all C header files but no iostream , but in YaST the GNU C++ Compiler is installed.

    You ran the C compiler
    Try
    g++ -o runningname file.cpp

    It's been some time, and it might vary from *nix to *nix, but when I last used one, the C compiler was cc while the C++ compiler was CC.

    When in doubt, read the FAQ.
    Then ask a smart question.

    I think it depends on the distro...I think there was a gpp, g++, and gcc...I only saw gpp on 1 distro of Linux though.

    I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak, there is no disguising the truth!
