(DJGPP) GXX

A C++ Compiler is required for this course, however I'm not very fussy about the compiler you use, provided that it is ANSI compliant. We will be using only core C++ functionality, involving the use of classes and objects and the standard output. Here are some likely suggested compilers.

Note for DJGPP: The subdirectories are organized as follows: 



For DJGPP Version 2.01:

 v2		DJGPP Version 2.XX

 v2gnu		GNU programs built with/for djgpp V2

 v2tk		Toolkits for DJGPP V2 (libraries & etc)

 v2apps		Programs built for DJGPP V2

 v2misc		Other DJGPP V2 stuff

Once you have downloaded the Files in Red, run lbinstdj.exe (appears when you run the install.exe program). This will install the application in the chosen directory (default is c:\DJGPP).

Add these two lines to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:


      set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%

      set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
if they are required (in Win NT/2000) add these entries to the system->environment variables as in the case of Java described above. Remember to check the FAQ in C:\DJGPP\FAQ\djgppfaq.html.

How do I compile and link programs? Here are several simple commands:
Compile a single C source cprog.c into cprog.exe:
     

		gcc -o cprog.exe cprog.c
Compile a C++ source cxxprog.cc into cxxprog.exe:
      

		gxx -o cxxprog.exe cxxprog.cc
Compile several C/C++ source files into object files:

		gcc -c cfile1.c cxxfile2.cc
Link several *.o object files into myprog.exe:
      

		gxx -o myprog.exe cfile1.o cxxfile2.o

To compile with optimizations, add the -O2 switch to the command line. In addition, use of the -Wall switch is highly recommended: it turns on many useful diagnostic messages.
