Jack,

I realize it has been quite a while since you posted your note to the
DJGPP mail-archive about problems you were having linking "hex.cc".
However, I have run into the same exact problem you seem to have
had, and was wondering if you ever found out how to get around this
problem... more details follow.

I downloaded and installed the DJGPP v2.0 distribution as per instructions
(fresh install).  I also read the FAQ and any other info I could find
the last 2 days on this problem, but still don't know what causes it.
Basically, I am using some of the STL components (vectors, maps, etc),
as well as the "string" class ( basic_string<char, char_traits> or whatever ),
and when I compile the modules, each compiles without any warnings or
errors, but when I try to link them together, I get a slew of "undefined
reference" errors.  Even when I try to compile each one seperately, with
a simple stub main() function, I still get the same "undefined reference"
errors - even with functions and variables completely defined and available
inside that same module!!

I have tried using both gcc and gxx, as per the FAQ, and also tried
compiling with the -c option to get the *.o files, then linking as a
seperate step.  I have also tried to explicitly including the g++ and
stdcxx libraries via the -lgpp and -lstdcxx switches.

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!!!
