If you downloaded the C++ files, you should also have gpp2721b.zip and
lgp271b.zip. One of these (lgp I think) contains the include files; they
are in a directory $(DJDIR)/lang/cxx/include/ IIRC. The compiler should
know where to look for them, if you name your programs .cc, .cpp or .C.

If the compiler isn't finding the files, try compiling a simple program
#including a standard C header, say stdio.h, and if it fails you have an
environment problem.

In any case, posting the result of:

redir -o output.txt -eo gcc -v <filename>

(where <filename> is the name of your program) would help people
troubleshoot the problem better.
