I have tried your problem and couldn't reproduce it. Because '.cxx' is
a valid C++ suffix, you don't need to change any in the local options.
And for me RHIDE (and of course also gcc) compiles '.cxx'-files correct
as C++ files. And if there is an error when compiling, I get an error
message in the Message window with the correct filename. So I don't
what happened for you, except, that you posted here something with
wrong words.

The above can happen, when you link (NOT compiling) the program and
you get some errors from the linker. In this case you should know
about the bug of gcc, that it emits (independent of the name of
your C++ source file) the filename with suffix '.cc' to the object file
and the linker sees only the object files and takes the names from
there, not the real name.

Solution: Change your source file to have the suffix '.cc'.
