Re: [Solved] C++ Compilation

Of course, you can always use gcc if you remeber to link against
libstdc++ (I think).
gcc is the universal front-end. It will compile and link anything supported 
by the compiler collection.


However that said g++ is better for both compiling and linking c++ code, 
because it uses slightly different depencency tracking etc.

Thanks, feel a bit stupid now. I think I was confused cause man g++ 
brings up the man page for gcc, so I thought they were the same.

Yeah, I know, I'm slowly learning things bit by bit. 

Thanks for your help,
