hey guys i bought a very recent book on ASCII C++, because its multi-platformed, my first few source files were compiling nicely in the command line, but whenever i try to compile them again or any other source file no result comes up

I restarted my computer, yet still no change, know whats wrong?

Could you copy the output? Try to compile anything and post the result.

#root: g++ Day0101.cpp
#root:

there is no output i have no idea what happend, i am using mandrake 9.1

Is there a file called a.out in the directory now?

zetsui · 06-10-2003, 02:14 PM

yes

even when i delete it and try to compile again nothing happens, but continue

a.out will be the compiled program

You've got to give the compiler a different name to output to or it will always be a.out:

g++ myprogram.cpp -o name_for_my_compiled_program
