For example, I use the command:

Code:

vi test.c

You could, of course, use emacs or any other text editor . . even a GUI text editor like kwrite or gnotepad would work.

And I write this file:

Code:

#include<stdio.h>



int

main (void) {

        printf("Hello, World!\n");

}

And then I can do this:

Code:

adam@hydra5:~$ gcc test.c -o test

adam@hydra5:~$ ./test

Hello, World!

adam@hydra5:~$

Of course, there are LOTS of options that you can pass to gcc, the GNU C Compiler . . . just do a 'man gcc' to see some of them, if not all.

If invoked as 'g++' instead of 'gcc' it will act as a C++ compiler. (You can also invoke it as just 'cc' or 'c++'.)

You don't have to operate purely in the command line like this. There are many development environments for X which are fully featured and have a lot of helpful tools. It is up to you to choose the one that you want. I don't know which is most popular these days, as I don't do a lot of coding.

Good luck!

Hi,
you might want to try codeblocks . It's Cross platform IDE for Linux, MacOS and Windows. Since I don't use Fedora, I'm not sure if they got it in there repository...
If not you can download it from there site.

greetings, guyapi

I can't tell if this is related to your original question. If this is a new question, then please start a new thread.

WTF?
how about a code that looks, compiles and works normal?

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(){

  printf("Hello, World!\n");

return 0;

}

i compiled your code in turbo C++ and heres the messages

Code:

 Compiling CH.C:

•Error CH.C 3: Declaration syntax error

•Error CH.C 3: ; Expected after "int"

there's nothing wrong with the above code. It's compiled with gcc as it is. But I've never heard that Turbo-C++ runs on Linux.

Smeezekitty, It's written in C. Perfectly valid C, and a C++ compiler should compile it.

Here's a C++ version for you

Code:

//===============================================

// Name        : HelloWorldCPlusPlus.cpp

// Author      : 

// Version    :

// Copyright  : Your copyright notice

// Description : Hello World in C++, Ansi-style

//===============================================



#include <iostream>

using namespace std;



int main() {

        cout << "Hello World!!!" << endl;

        return 0;

}

 Error CPPCODE.CPP 10: Declaration syntax error

if i change iostream to iostream.h and comment out using namespace std;
it compiles

we live in the year of 2009!!! This change in C++ was in 1999 as I remember.

Just what version of Turbo C++ are you using? Active development of the product was stopped 15 years ago.

i know that it is version 3.0 for dos dated 1992
i use Turbo C++ and GCC
and i make all my codes so it compiles for both

Umm, I really wouldn't. Why don't you use Eclipse CDT + MinGW or Cygwin for your windows development? Then at least you'd have an up to date C++ compiler that complies with the C++98 ISO standard

i use that too but some programs need to run on my dos 486 with 12 MB ram

@original poster sorry for the thread hijack, but return type should be on the same line and needed to make that point
