Re: [newbie] Is there a C++ compiler somewhere?
Kathleen -- Come now. C++ may be a pain in the butt in some respects, but it has some real advantages. and the iostream is one of them ! pete On Sun, 10 Sep 2000 21:38:16 -0500, Kathleen Dickason wrote: Of course, the *best* thing to do is to learn C instead of C++, thus obviating the need for iostream.h... *running away fast* Kathleen, who is learning C and liking it Digital Wokan wrote: Everyone seems to make it sound like you need to reinstall Mandrake and install it with the Developer option.

Hi Mark, Just grab all the latests devel packages (I think they are in the RPMS2 dir on any of the mirror sites) do an rpm -qa | grep gcc just to see if you have any of the packages installed ... if not they're all on the site =) Lonny I tried the gcc, I actually used the command g++ at the command prompt and every time it gives me an error saying "iostream.h is not found."

Thanks Mark Mark. (Large bulge in cheek) Every Linux machine is a complete C++ compiler and editor all rolled into one and boxed up with a whole bunch of other goodies as well. Call up your favourit editor and start writing your code. run man gcc from your commandline and you're off. Good luck cheers -- ICQ# 89345394 Mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes...there is a set of CNU compiler apps and they're first rate. As for editors, pick your poison. Emacs (and I presume Xemacs) has C syntax filters that help some folks. Cheers --- Larry

You're going to have to read a wee bit to get things set up as it's beyond the ability of a conference like this to walk you from asking the question you've just asked to successfully programming in C++. The simple answer to your question is that iostream.h is the most basic of basic class groups in the C++ language. If you've got GNU C++ installed, this file exists on your machine. Cheers --- Larry
Re: [newbie] Is there a C++ compiler somewhere?
Not necessarily. This library file (iostream.h) is missing from the Standard install of drake 7.1, though it does install with the Developer version.

Kathleen Dickason wrote: Not necessarily. This library file (iostream.h) is missing from the Standard install of drake 7.1, though it does install with the Developer version. I guess I wouldn't have thought anyone would believe they were "installed" for program development without doing a developer installation. Of course you're correct. Cheers --- Larry
Re: [newbie] Is there a C++ compiler somewhere?
Everyone seems to make it sound like you need to reinstall Mandrake and install it with the Developer option. This is NOT the case. I would use KFM and KPackage to find the library RPM's you need to install to put those development library files on your hard drive. KPackage has a tab for listing the files in the RPM before you select to install it. Try different lib*.rpm files until you've got the development packages installed that you need.

Of course, the *best* thing to do is to learn C instead of C++, thus obviating the need for iostream.h... *running away fast* Kathleen, who is learning C and liking it Digital Wokan wrote: Everyone seems to make it sound like you need to reinstall Mandrake and install it with the Developer option.
