Hi,
I just deleted and re-installed DJGPP only to find out it's somehow screwed
up. I've installed all the necessary packages mentioned on Brennan's DJGPP
page (apart from the pklite-type thing and I installed a newer version of
the GNU BinUtils), but something isn't right... I can't even compile a
simple "Hello World!"-program without adding -liostream (I'm using
C++-syntax, meaning I've included iostream.h and I'm using cout instead of
printf) as a compilation parameter. Now, this DOES work this way, but
before I deleted DJGPP, I didn't need to add this parameter (in other words
link the source code with the iostream library)... It's kinda frustrating
to get a 250k hello.exe. I've set the DJGPP environment variable, djgpp\bin
is in my PATH and all the files in the packages are in the default dirs
(the ones defined within the zips). I even tried installing DJGPP twice,
and I triple-checked I had all the necessary packages to compile both C and
C++ programs, but to no avail. Someone plz help me!
