There has been a few people with problems compiling C++ files with RHIDE 
(namely .cpp): well you don't have to rename you're files to .cc anymore, 
because I have the solution!!!

Following is an extract from the RHIDE homepage which fixes everything...

-----cut here-----

Known bugs

- RHIDE searches in the wrong places for the file rhide.env.
  As in the doc said, that it searches the file for instance
  in $(DJDIR)/share/rhide, it searches in $(DJDIR)/share/rhide/rhide.

  That means, if you want to create your own customized rhide.env,
  you have to place it (when using RHIDE 1.3) in the directory with
  twice /rhide in it and when later switching to newer version of
  RHIDE move the file simply one directory lower.

- Some builtin rules for compiling are wrong. But this can be solved
  by overwriting them with the correct values without recompiling RHIDE.
  To do it so create a file rhide.env (or add to an already existing) and
  put there the following lines

# These variables are needed for RHIDE 1.3 because the builtin ones
# are wrong. Any later version of RHIDE will have that corrected so 
# you can remove them when using a newer version.
RHIDE_COMPILE.cpp.o=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.cc.o)
RHIDE_COMPILE.cxx.o=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.cc.o)
RHIDE_COMPILE.C.o=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.cc.o)
RHIDE_COMPILE.pas.o=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.p.o)
RHIDE_COMPILE.for.o=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.f.o)
RHIDE_COMPILE.F.o=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.f.o)
RHIDE_COMPILE.fpp.o=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.f.o)
RHIDE_COMPILE.asm.o=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.nsm.o)
RHIDE_COMPILE.cpp.s=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.cc.s)
RHIDE_COMPILE.cxx.s=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.cc.s)
RHIDE_COMPILE.C.s=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.cc.s)
RHIDE_COMPILE.cpp.ii=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.cc.ii)
RHIDE_COMPILE.cxx.ii=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.cc.ii)
RHIDE_COMPILE.C.ii=$(RHIDE_COMPILE.cc.ii)

  And now copy the file rhide.env to the directory

  c:/djgpp/share/rhide/rhide

  [ if your DJGPP is an other, then replace c:/djgpp with the correct one ]
  And of course if this directory does not exeist, create it first.

  For Linux users: The directory should be

  /usr/local/share/rhide/rhide


  Or an other solution is to add these lines to your djgpp.env file
  in a section for RHIDE. Example:

[rhide]
...  <--- put here the lines from above


-----cut-----

OK! So now you can all compile C++ programs with that great IDE with no 
hassles! See ya!
