 Posted: Mon Jul 07, 2008 1:42 am Post subject: C++ compiler for gentoo (and/or tips :D) |
 |
|
ok... so i wrote c++ a VERY long time ago. That is, I programmed in 2000, and... the software i used was a very old compiler that was used in school at that time.
Question is, I never really did get to use any of the new compilers. So, i would like to know if there are any compilers in gentoo. I know there is a java compiler called Netbeans, and i also know that it has c++ option. But are there any others?
I have been trying to compile some dumb code, and i added typical | Code: | | #include <iostream.h> |
to the beginning of the code to add the iostream library. But for some reason it is not there, and hence my code does not compile.
Anyway, any help will be appreciated |

I am not a programmer, but I am pretty sure the default C++ compiler in Gentoo is provided by sys-devel/gcc

There's no such thing like <iostream.h>, there's <iostream> ;)

And i saw that i had another problem in the code.
It is for windows so i have read. so how do I call the linux library that is the analogous? |

| There is ncurses if you are looking for console "graphics." I do not know much about it. |

False. <iostream.h> most definitely is a real thing but it is deprecated in favor of <iostream> since it is the standards-compliant version |

this is by far going to be your biggest problem. What function were you using requiring conio? was this a borland c++ program?
what is this program supposed to do? how big is it (post it somewhere)?

netbeans is an ide developed with help from sun for java, the compiler is javac (sun) or others (like jikes from ibm, gcj from the gnu project etc.)
g++ is basicly the standard linux c++ compiler, which is basicly gcc (gnu compiler collection).

that is a cool link, but I'ld still like to know what the purpose / used functions were.
If you were drawing windows on the screen, then ncurses/conio->ncurses would need to be looked at. But conio was used for other things that wouldn't require it at all, like getting characters from the keyboard.

Thanks guys.
Hmmm, it seems that the course I am taking atm is using borland C++ and well, they are using it on windows, so windows libraries are in effect to my dismay.
Either way, thanks for the work arounds. -I will try them out. |
