problem with g++
 

hi all,

i need help with installation of g++.

how can i instal g++ in my mandrake?

i found and installed gcc but i didn't find g++ in the software package installation,
so i be happy for some help

tnx,
ohad.

g++ is part of the gcc collection.

If you have urpmi set up, all you have to do is(as root).
For setting up urpmi, visit
http://easyurpmi.zarb.org
For more info on urpmi visit

when you say that g++ is part of the gcc collection you mean that i can compile with gcc c++ files or that i should install something?

You need to install the package gcc-c++, yes gcc-c++(g++) is part of the gcc project, but the package gcc-c++ is not necessarily included with gcc.

I found two packages call "gcc-cpp-2.96-0.83mdk" & "gcc-cpp-3.4.1-3mdk". i hope this will help.

tnx to you all for the help.

The correct way to install gcc-c++ is what abattoir posted above.
This will install g++ and all its dependencies automatically.

can you explain more about

#urpmi gcc-c++

what should i do exactly?

tnx.

Urpmi is the Mandrake/Mandriva package manager and it can install packages from your CD's, hard drive or from the web. To find out more about it go to zebulon.org.uk and to seup more sources for your release, follow the instructions at easyurpmi.

The command I posted above is done as root (# means root).

can you give me a link so i can download the gcc-c++ package?

I have already shown you how to install it correctly in my previous posts.
