Hi prad..,

Use Eclipe IDE and create a projet. Insert your file in the project and you will be able to it all using Eclipse.
If you don't have that package installed used System.Admin.Add/remove programs and look for Eclipe IDE.

I have done it few week ago and I work not to bad.

Good luck,

RL

All you need is the package "gcc-c++" (yum install gcc-c++).
And then compile using: g++ [sourcefile.cpp] -o [progname]

EmbeddedTwix , Eclipse is a good IDE, but it is not needed to compile C++ code.

Good luck!

Hi pradeep.rawat,

Check that you actually doing a compile and link.
The linked program generated is a executable file with same name as your main file or some basic name like 'out'.

example:
toto.cpp -> either generates: 'out' or 'toto'
In very simple cases, if it compiles and link without errors, you should see an executable file appearing in the same directory.
Ex.: If the file name is toto open a console window and type ./toto.
If your program is an 'hello world' like (using console outputs), you will get output at your console.

If this doesn't help say more about the command you are using and the current outputs you get.

Regards,

You can also edit ~/.bash_profile by typing in "vi ~/.bash_profile" and change "PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin" to "PATH=.:$PATH". This how I have mine setup so I can simply type the name of the compiled program and it runs, with out the "./" before it. So, if i compiled my app without the "-o" output it give me a file called "a.out" All I would have to do is cd into it's directory and type "a.out". I prefer it simply because it is faster when I'm testing my code for logic errors.

Hope this helps,
Alex
