Just curious: are you using C++ libraries?

lib\libstdcx(x).a is the filename. These contain all the C++ library functions
you might use in your program. Since compiling C works (don't know why you need
to run it through the C++ compiler), why not just use C?

Anyway, if you want to correct the problem, see section 8.7 of the FAQ. Or for a
more interesting and univeral way of correcting the problem, do the follow
(wastes hard drive space, but it really works). Go to your DJGPP\LIB directory
and you should see a file called LIBSTDCXX.A. You want to have 2 files,
completely identical, called LIBSTDCX.A and LIBSTDCXX.A (the difference is 1
'X'). This ensures each way will work. smirk.
