hi all, i just installed knoppix 3.3
i'm very new at this so please forgive me for asking stupid questions...

one of my projects need to use the gcc 2.95 version, now when i look in the kpackage, it said that version 2.95 is already installed, but when i check it with gcc -v, it said it's version 3.3.3

so is 2.95 really already installed?
if so, how can i use it?

i'm new at this so please show me some examples

thank you

In the shell where you will compile type in and then enter export CC=/usr/bin/gcc-2.95 if the application complains it still cannot find the compiler then as root ln -sf /usr/bin/gcc-2.95 /usr/bin/gcc to have the symbolic link point to the 2.95 compiler.

wow....thanx for the quick reply

i set it as a link...call gc
and when i type:
./gc -v
it said that it's version 2.95.4
so it works......but when i use the make command, it still uses the 3.3.3 version
is there anyways that i can just disable the version 3.3.3???

also, when i just try to compile the maintest.c file with the 2.95 version, it said none of the include files exits......

my program work in our school's account.....but just not in my own linux machine.....

maintest.c:1: iostream.h: No such file or directory
maintest.c:2: string: No such file or directory
maintest.c:3: iomanip: No such file or directory
maintest.c:4: cstring: No such file or directory
maintest.c:5: cstdioh: No such file or directory
In file included from maintest.c:9:
GeneralList.h:4: stdexcept: No such file or directory
GeneralList.h:5: string: No such file or directory


any idea???
