The dynamic_cast<> keyword (or whatever it is referred to =) gives me
an error and tells me to compile with the flag "-frtti".  So I compile
with that and it gives me an error that I need to include
<typeinfo.h>.  So I include typeinfo.h and it can't find it.  Where is
that file?  And also its C++, so is the file that has typeinfo.h a
freeware file ... I was mentioned to that some DJGPP C++
Files/Libraries are not freeware.

Thanks for your time!

If you're curious here's the exact errors:

Try #1:
main.cpp: In function `int main()':
main.cpp:67: cannot take typeid of object when -frtti is not specified
main.cpp:67: confused by earlier errors, bailing out

Try #2:
In file included from d:/genesis/djgpp/lang/cxx/iostream.h:31,
                 from main.cpp:2:
d:/genesis/djgpp/lang/cxx/streambu.h:250: failed to build type
descriptor node of 'ios', maybe typeinfo.h not included
main.cpp: In function `int main()':
main.cpp:67: confused by earlier errors, bailing out

Try #3:
main.cpp:1: typeinfo.h: No such file or directory (ENOENT)

Thanx in advance =)
