I'm using a precompiled binary on my DSL 9.0 box to talk to and Analog/Digital converter attched to my PS's serial port. This works fine. I'd like to make some changes to the code, and I have the source, but it's written in C++

I tried installing g++ using Synaptic, but there's a conflict between one of its dependencies & the current DSL base, so it won't install.
I tried gcc 2.9.5- the cc1plus executable is missing, so no go there either.

Has anyone had any luck installing any C++ compiler on DSL?

Alternatively, if anyone's be able to use a C++ static library through a C main compiled w/ tcc, That would work, too.

Thanks for any help,

Mark

Grab the gcc1.dsl from the testing area.

It's gcc, g++, and make for DSL.

Saidinunleashed-

You are my hero!

I got gcc1.dsl from the MyDSL/Syetem area, and my C++ source from the hardware vendor compiled & worked without a hitch.

Thanks,

Mark
