You still need to set the environment variable. Provided you do that correctly (and make sure it always happens, i.e. put it in autoexec.bat) the IDE should work fine. Note, however, that if you write a C++ program you should give it a C++ filename -- that is, .cc, .cpp or .cxx. That way the IDE and compiler know that your program is C++, and add the C++ include directories to the include search. If you just call it .c, the IDE and compiler will treat it as a C file and not find C++ include files. If this doesn't solve your problem, please use the bug report feature of RHIDE to generate a description of your system setup so that we can see exactly what is going wrong. The bug report generator is on the system menu (left-hand one on the menu bar). -- george DOT foot AT merton DOT oxford DOT ac DOT uk Remember what happened to the dinosaur.
