Although it might be wise to confirm that your source will still be
compilable on the system at university. For example, I've been developing
some C++ for a software systems engineering project, and our engineering
Unix systems (Suns) have only Sun's compilers (which don't appear to have
the STL) and g++ 2.7.2.x, which won't compile anything written using the
STL etc for 2.8.x in my experience.

Fortunately our CS machines have egcs 2.8.x g++ installed and they
are also Suns, and binary-compatible.

I discovered this before a CS project was due (-;  G++ is now a separate
entity.  Hamm/Slink is now using the egcs c++.  I was concerned at
first.  However this is a better compiler.  The STL is also MUCH more
fully fleshed out.  map exists.  Install the g++ package and
the libs and get back to coding (-:

Why no g++?

1998-04-17 Thread Luiz Otavio L. Zorzella

Why isn't there the g++ link to gcc in the debian distribution? There
are several "configure"s that test if "g++" compiles...

If I'm not clear:

$ type g++
bash: type: g++: not found
