Hello,
I am trying to do some C++ programing on Linux, unfortunately I am
having trouble compiling my "hello world" scripts. AFAIK, I just have
to type g++ fill.cc and it will compile...but I don't seem to have g++
installed. I thought it is part of the gcc package but I already have
that installed. I am running Mandrake 10.1 and I like to just use urpmi
to install any programs. If I type urpmi -a g++ I get the message "no
package named g++" and if I try urpmi -a gcc, I get the message
"everything is installed". I just got the book Essential C++ and I want
to learn it over the weekend...but it will be difficult if I can't get
my code to run :). What am I missing?
Also, does anyone know some good Linux Programming books for C++ and/or
C? Also, what about a good editor. I am thinking along the lines of
Visual C++ for Windows. I plan do to most of it just in vi, but just in
case I get into more complicated projects it might be nice to have a
program to help with that.
Thanks for the help.
Later
