Good C++ compiler


I am looking for a good C++ compiler for RedHat 9. Any ideas? I haven't checked the discs' yet to see if there is one included yet. I don't think I have one installed.

the officialy GNU compiler is gcc. for C++, you can use this, which is wrapped for C++ by "g++", but gcc will also compile code as C++ is it has a cpp extension, rather than just c

just run "g++" or "gcc". if it doesn't give a response, it's not installed.

Some distros package g++ seperately from gcc, you may have to look for a package called gcc-g++ or something similar.
