Hi,

I searched on web for some tutorials but i didn't found anything :P Can someone give me a link to rpm package or to repository, or something else that could help? I migrated from Ubuntu about week ago and i need to learn some things

Thanks alot for every helpful reply.

[EDIT]
Btw i searched yum repositories and i didn't find anything.

Code:

su -
yum search gcc

it is there

but you have to install a lot more than ONLY one program

Code:

su -
yum groupinstall " Development Tools"

mind you only fedora 18 and 19 are supported
and fedora 18 is VERY near it's end of life

and have a look on Fedoraforum.org

Hi, and thank you for replying.

I am running Fedora 19, and i searched the repository as you said, I found gcc.x86_64 package and installed it, works perfectly thank you

if you installed ONLY this"gcc.x86_64"
then you are still missing a LOT OF needed code

please fallow the posted instructions or do not bother asking for help if you are not going to use it !

Code:

su -
yum groupinstall " Development Tools"

and then look to see if g++ is installed

Thank you for your response, but i need ONLY C++ compiler nothing else. I just need to compile some easy code for school and nothing else. Its working good.

Code:

sudo yum install gcc-c++

ps.
"yum install gcc-c++"
that will ALSO install all the REQUIRED software that c++ needs
autotools need to also be installed
the gcc compiler all by it's self, is less than useless

it is like installing the Microsoft free VS 8 compiler but NOT installing everything else it NEEDS
