NOT TRUE!! As of the latest release (g++ version 1.37.2 alpha 2) g++ still (specifically gcc.c in the release) automagically includes -lg++ for you. So don't believe everything you read in the HINTS file! ;^} I sent Michael Tiemann patches for g++-1.36.0 to create a gcc-gnulibplus (gcc-gnulib + gnulib3 + xyzzy) and have g++ load with that instead of gcc-gnulib. He acknowledged receiving them, but declined to do anything about it. As it is, you need to get libg++ to even compile and load a C++ program. An accident waiting to happen... If anyone is interested in these patches, I'll see if I can dig them up and post them yet again! -- Ronald Cole | uucp: unify!rjc voice: +1 916 920 1830 x734 Software Engineer II | internet: csusac!unify!rjc@ucdavis.edu Unify Corporation +---------------------------------------------------- "I've taken my mind apart and lost some of the pieces!" - Devo -- Ronald Cole | uucp: unify!rjc voice: +1 916 920 1830 x734 Software Engineer II | internet: csusac!unify!rjc@ucdavis.edu Unify Corporation +---------------------------------------------------- "I've taken my mind apart and lost some of the pieces!" - Devo
