configuring IT++ in Linux

[Shreeram]

I have problem configuring (i guess) IT++. I used to use it very nicely in my college server (red hat Linux) but when tried to install it in my home computer, its really interesting as follows:

Followed the instructions on http://itpp.sourceforge.net/latest/linking.html

and used

export PATH=<Path to your IT++ directory>/bin:$PATH

and then

g++ it-config --flags -o my_prog my_prog.cpp it-config --libs

but it says

bash: it-config: command not found
bash: it-config: command not found
ML_SU_VSER3.cpp:3:20: itcomm.h: No such file or directory
ML_SU_VSER3.cpp:6: error: std::endl' has not been declared ML_SU_VSER3.cpp:7: error:std::cout' has not been declared

this amazes me because i did the same in other computer and i could use several SSH windows and compile several programs at once but here i am puzzled to compile 2 programs in 2 shells.

Any suggestions ?? I use Madrake 10.1 official Linux .

Any help would be appreciated very much.

thanks

For the first use i can use compile using "it-config" file and g++ but when i open the second shell i can not compile the any program. I tried by exporting the path again and again and compile again but it always says it-config not found or not a valid command.

shreeram,

Does

./it-config --flags

work?

Your might want to try

echo $PATH

to see what is visible to the bash shell

Sorry, I have no answer for your question, but actually; I use MandrakeLinux 1.01 and I do not have this behavior. But, I get ( when compiling my first programme) ' \user\bin\ld: do not find -lg2c'

My Distro has just been installed, I think I have the same compilers than you g++..., and I made exactly the process explained ( download it++, and external.a, put external.a into it++/lib, ./configure, make....

and for the programme:

g++ it-config --flags -o first first.cpp it-config --libs

if you get an idea of what lg2c is, please explain it to me.

[Shreeram]

this kind of error can arise when you don't have the g2c library installed. so urpmi g2c or urpmi lg2c might work in MDK!
