or if its in your .bashrc file:

export GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=%CYGROOT%\\lib\\gcc-lib\\
                                               ^^ note the trailing backslashes !

Your GCC_EXEC_PREFIX is not correctly set,
please reread the FAQ, and README, to get the correct values.

IMHO you didn't set GCC_EXEC_PREFIX (correctly) - it should be

set GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=%CYGROOT%\lib\gcc-lib\
                                         ^ note the trailing backslash !

Bye.
Michael.

gnu compiler

[Mark Ryan]

Cygnus:
I have a dx4100 w/16mb ram win95 op sys:

I have installed gcc compiler with environment variable and path set as
noted, 
I am getting error messages like "...cannot exec cpp no such file ...." I
put the directory that contains the cpp.exe in the path statement and
rerun--I get error messages like iostream.h not found (or something
similar).

please help--all I want to do is learn c++, not get stuck installing a
compiler.

my level of expertise in computers is high, so you don't need to start from
the beginning.

thanks in advance for your help.
