undefined reference error

I am trying to compile a c++ program and here is the error i am getting

junaid@Dev-jsahibzada:~/www/c2php$ gcc -o c2php *.cpp -I${SSC_HOME}/include ${SSC_HOME}/lib/libwasp.so ${SSC_HOME}/lib/libwasp_stl.so
/usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.0.3/../../../../lib/crt1.o: In function `_start':../sysdeps/i386/elf/start.S:115: undefined reference to `main'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

even if i use g++ i get the same thing

please tell me whats wrong.

This may seem stupid, but does one of your .cpp files contain a main function?

ooooooops it doesnt.

i am using this tool provided by systinet.com to convert a wsdl file into corresponding C++ stub skeleton.

when i use this tool on wsdl file it gives me the following files.

c2php.cpp
c2php.h
c2phpImpl.cpp
c2phpImpl.h
c2phpStructs.cpp
c2phpStructs.h

now according to the documentation was simply supposed to compile them and use them.

i didnt know that i had to write my own main() to make things work.

What kind of things are the files? If they were black-box modules, you would still have to write a C++ driver for it all. "use" and "run" are two different things, programming-wise.

Agreed. Never seen that tool before, looks kindof interesting.

u can get the tool from here

it converts a wsdl file into c++ code.
