You've got to tell the compiler that you are compiling a C++ program by naming it with a .cc or .cpp suffix. Also make sure that your DJGPP environment is set up according to the instructions in 'readme.1st'. There are some other possible causes for the error, but your question isn't specific enough for a specific diagnosis. Please download the latest version of the DJGPP Frequently Asked Questions List (v2/faq202b.zip) from SimTel and peruse the chapter on compile-time errors - it tells you exactly what to do when you have similar problems to the above. Please also note the instructions in section 6.12, which tell you the format you need to follow when posting a configuration question to the newsgroup. Thank you. John -- John M.
