ProgrammingThis forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

I am looking for a book covering programming in C++ for Linux. There are a lot of C++ books out there but there must be a difference if you are programming for Win or Linux.
The books covering programming in Linux mostly covers Python, Perl, shell and such. I have not found any C++ for Linux.
Actually there aren't any differences really. The only differences depend on the libraries you use. So if you are using SDL you should have a program working on both platforms, but if you will be using linux specific system calls, well, you may have a problem. Check out http://www.advancedlinuxprogramming.com. ( you can download the book for free there )
