I've just downloaded DJGPP and RHIDE to help me with a C / C++ course I am
about to undertake. However I can't even compile the 'hello world' program.
I am running Windows 95 (OSR2) on a Cyrix P166MMX with 32Mb RAM. I unzipped
the files I'd downloaded in the following order :
bnu281.zip
djdev202.zip
faq211b.zip
gcc281b.zip
gpp281b.zip
lgp2811b.zip
mak377b.zip
rhide14b.zip
While unzipping gpp281b.zip I was asked if I wanted to overwrite existing
files of the same name. These files were :
overwrite /bin/cxxfilt.exe dated : 31.12.97 size : 55,808 bytes
with /bin/cxxfilt.exe dated : 06.06.98 size : 65,024bytes
overwrite /bin/gxx.exe dated : 13.12.98 size : 70,144bytes
with /bin/gxx.exe dated : 22.10.98 size : 132,096bytes
I've tried answering 'yes' to both and 'no' to both, and 'yes' to the
newest file and 'no to the oldest file. No effect.
The program listing is :
#include <stdio.h>
int main ( void )
{
printf("Hello World!");
return(0);
}
The error message returned by the compiler is :
installation problem, cannot exec 'cpp': No such file or directory (ENOENT)
This message also appears if I invoke 'gcc' from the command line.
Have I done something stupid?
Thanks
Mark
