Compilation Problem With G++ -- In Opensuse 10.2

Hello guys,


Here is the problem i am facing with g++ ,in OpenSuse10.2...
While compiling a small "Helloworld" program i am getting i wanted error messages something like this.......

=> Here is my C++ program

// file name = helloworld.cpp
****//This is the test program, helloworld****

****#include <iostream>
****using namespace std;

****int main()
****{
********cout << "Hello World!" << endl;
********return 0;
****}

=> After saving the file - helloworld.cpp - ,i have compiled it using the following command in shell prompt ( in Opensuse 10.2 )

g++ -o**helloworld**helloworld.cpp

=> Now i am getting a huge list of errors , as follows....

In file included from helloworld.cpp:3:

=> In my machine g++ is installed properly. when i am typing the command - which g++ - , i am able to see the result as follows...

/usr/bin/g++

=> In bin folder i am able to see the following after greping ( ll | grep "g++" ).

lrwxrwxrwx**1 root root**********7 2008-03-11 17:19 c++ -> g++-4.1

Please help me to solve this problem. i am so stucked up with this issue ..!!!!
Thanks in advance

Just the compiler is not enough. You are missing the package containing the include files. Search for a libstdc++41-devel package in YaST and install that.

thank you so much for your reply

but i am not able go ahead as i am not a Linux expert
what i did was....
=> i greped the rpm like as follows ...

 rpm -qa | grep std

=> then i got the following result

libstdc++41-devel-4.1.2_20061115-5
libstdc++-devel-4.1.3-29
compat-libstdc++-5.0.7-41
libstdc++41-32bit-4.1.2_20061115-5
ghostscript-fonts-std-8.15.3-26
libstdc++41-4.1.2_20061115-5
libstdc++2.10-2.96-0.83mdk

Unfortunatly i don't know how to "Search for a libstdc++41-devel package in YaST and install that ..."
Can you please guide me ,i am struggling like anything .

But the strange thing is that you do seem to have the packages. Your program compiles file on my system which is 10.3. It should work on 10.2, but that error is puzzling, as those include files should be there, unless the installation was damaged and some files were lost.

Your code runs fine on my system as well.

Try running ldconfig as root. It doesn't need any options. This should have already been done by rpm but it certainly doesn't hurt to repeat the process. Otherwise try

rpm -V libstdc++41-devel

This should produce no output. If it does then let us know what.

Also take a look in /usr/include/c++/4.1.2/i586-suse-linux/bits/ ("i586" might be i386 or athlon or whatever system you have) and see if the missing files are there. You should have something like this:

pleaseeeeeeeeee help me ...!!!!!

Try telling the compiler specifically where the headers are:

g++ -o helloworld helloworld.cpp -I/usr/include/c++/4.1.2/x86_64-suse-linux/bits

I don't think this will solve the problem but it might reduce the number of error messages - and give a clue as to the problem.

Thanks for the mentality to help me..!!
I have tired the command

g++ -o helloworld helloworld.cpp -I/usr/include/c++/4.1.2/x86_64-suse-linux/bits

But still getting the same error.

Can you tell me other solution , like UNINSTALL g++ and INSTALL g++ successfully. Can tell me the step by step procedure for UNINSTALL + INSTALL g++ ...?

If am doing the reinstallation of g++ , will it solve my isuuess ...?

Yep, I think you're right - re-installing is the only other thing I can think of doing.

The approved method for Suse is to use Yast. Once you have Yast open (you will need root password) go to Software and then Software Management. Change the Filter combo box to 'Package Groups' - this makes it nice and easy to go through what packages you have installed. Development->Languages would be a good place to start. Everything with a blue tick on the right hand side is installed - to uninstall just click so that the tick disappears. When you have taken out all you want to uninstall click Accept.

If you really want to uninstall packages with RPM you want the -e switch. Yast uses RPM under the hood so the two methods are effectively the same.

On the other hand RPM very rarely messes up so there could well be a deeper problem which uninstalling and re-installing won't fix. It's bound to be something really obscure! Faced with your situation I would rather not try to fix this installation (and all the time-consuming messing about this entails) but download the disks for Suse 10.3, wipe the partition and re-install from scratch instead. This has the added bonus of bringing all the rest of your software up to more recent (and hopefully more bug free) versions.
