First of all I don't know if I understand your terminology. g++ could eather be the C++ compiler. Or the libg++ library. libg++ is an old library and is not used anymore. When you compile C++ programs with g++/gcc today you use libstdc++. And neather g++/gcc or the libstd++ is up to date. v3 of both is in development. Don't know the state at the moment. I guess maybe one of the g++/gcc maintainers could comment on it. libstdc++ is not realy a part of g++/gcc. It is developed in another team. /Jens >Hi, > >I have recently downloaded the latest Cygwin archive >to start a project in C++.
