When I try this on Mandrake 8.1, gcc 2.96, I get errors from the linker, ld, about undefined references to cout and ostream::operator<<. However, if I type g++ hello.cpp it compiles and runs fine. It likes like gcc (2.96 at least) doesn't assume from the filename extension that you are compiling C++ rather than C (or at least doesn't automatically link with the proper libraries). I'm rather surprised at that, but anyway try using g++ and see if that works. > > Is there a program I can use like visual c++ 6.0 under linux.
