Hello all,

I have a recently built openBSD 3.8 machine and I wanted to be able to 
do some simple c++ programming on it.  I wrote the following 
helloworld program:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    cout << "Hello World!\n";
}

I installed the following packages:
g++-4.0-20050804
gcc-4.0-20050804


Just tried it myself. No problems whatsoever.

# vi helloworld.cpp
# c++ -o hello helloworld.cpp
# ./hello
Hello World!
#

You should not need to install any additional packages for this as long 
as you installed the compiler (compXX.tgz) while installing. If you did 
not do that then, do it now. "man tar" and "tar -xzvpf" are your friends.

Thanks for all the help.  I did not install comp38.tgz, once installed 
everything worked fine.
