Hi,
when I try to generate a DLX file out of a C++ object file,
DLXGEN reports that the .o file consists of "more than one
section" and refuses to generate the DLX.
Everything is properly installed (linker description,
libraries, headers, ...), and it works fine with C code.
After comparing map files of a C and a C++ object file, I
found out that in the C++ object file there are two frames
called ".eh_frame" and " .eh_frame" (with a space before
the "."), and only the second one seems to contain the
relevant object data.
I think that there are more people having this problem, and
I also discovered that there was already a similar
discussion (long long time ago), but I could not find any
real help in the DJGPP mail archives - so I'm quite
pessimistic if anybody knows how to solve that problem.

PS: I have also contacted Luke Bishop (the programmer of
DLX) - he told me that he could generate C++ DLXs without
any troubles. That's interesting, AFAIK the problems with
C++ and DLX start already when you install the latest C++
compiler ZIP (gpp2952b.zip) ;-(
