Can anyone out there give me some help on GNU C++? I'm a C++ novice trying
to compile and GPP won't find a header file, which I know is in one of the
subdirectories.
I followed the instructions at
ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2/readme.1st
to the letter and tinkered to no avail.
One concern I have is downloading all the files via AOL produces a
many-nodes directory structure, in part, as follows:
2-BNU27B 3-BIN 3-INFO 3-MANIFEST
2-DJDEV201 3-BIN 3-INCLUDE 3-LIB 3-DJGPP.ENV
2-GCC2721B 3-BIN 3-INFO 3-MANIFEST
2-GPP2721B 3-BIN 3-MANIFEST
2-LGP271B 3-BIN 3-INFO 3-LIB 3-MANIFEST
where the numbers indicate the level under the main directory DJGPP (level
1).
The header file that the compiler can't find is in:
2-LGP2714B 3-LANG 4-CXX
Delorie's README file says to leave the directory structure intact. It
also says to put the following two lines into the autoexec.bat file (which
I did and re-booted):
set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%
Note that DJGPP.ENV per the above structure is not in DJGPP per se, but
one of its sub-directories. There is also no BIN in DJGPP, but there is
more than one BIN in its sub-directories.
My concern is compounded when I look inside DJDEV.ENV. It doesn't
acknowledge the existence of these level 2 directories. I'm tempted to
collapse level 2, but am not that desperate yet.
Should the 1st of the above autoexec.bat statements contain instead
C:\DJGPP\DVDEV201\DJGPP.ENV? Which BIN is the 2nd of the above
autoexec.bat statements looking for?
