[tbox-l] Re: Package updates: gcc, gcc-c++, binutils, gdb

[Venkat G. <VG...@tr...>]

Hi,

I had installed the gcc and gcc-c++ on AIX 5.2. The gcc compiler works fine, but I am some trouble using g++ compiler.
I did a simple test using the following program.

*--------------
//  test1.cpp

#include <cstdio>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
  printf ("Hello World!");
  return 0;
}
*---------------
I get the following errors, when I compile.

g++ test1.cpp

ld: 0711-201 SEVERE ERROR: External symbol typeinfo name for std::codecvt<wchar_t, char, char*>, defined in member codecvt.o

... and more....

Look's like I am missing some flags or files here, any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Venkat
