I installed djgpp and rhide yesterday.  Since then i've been trying to
figure out how to get it to compile c++ programs.  When i create the
hello world example like indicated in the rhide docs, it works.  C
programs compile and work well.  But c++ just don't want to work, i
read docs for 2-3 hours now and i don't know how to fix this error:

 Error: f:/djgpp/bin/ld.exe: cannot open -lstdcx: No such file or
directory (ENOENT)

i set up the environment variables in autoexec.bat like said in the
docs.

when i press F9 to get it to link (as it apparently compiles well)
i see that rhide gives this command line:

executing:
gcc     -o hello.exe   hello.o  -lstdcx

Thanks a lot, i'm sure i miss some basic info to get it to work...

I'm running rhide and djgpp in a dos box under windows 95

In case that helps, here is what i installed (just re downloaded them
an hour ago to be sure it wasn't the problem)
