I then created a program as follows #include intmain() { cout << "hello world!\n" return 0; } I the compile it without any errors however when i go to link it using gxx -o myprog.exe hello.o. It comes up with: rename of myprog.000 to myprog.exe failed the error was: invalid argument (EINVAL). Can anyone tell me where i have gone wrong is it due to a missed step in setting up the compiler.
