compiling with g++

compiling with g++

[William Lennox]

Pardon me if this question is to basic.

what would be the terminal line that would allow me to compile a file that 
is on my windows desktop?  I would use the g++ compiler.

You mean "g++ foo.cc"?

I think he want:

(for win9x installed on drive c:)
cd /cygdrive/c/windows/desktop
g++ foo.cc

(for winNT installed on drive c:)
cd /cygdrive/c/WINNT/Profiles/username/Desktop
g++ foo.cc

(for win2K installed on drive c:)
cd /cygdrive/c/Documents\ And\ Settings/username/Desktop
g++ foo.cc

Ah, OK.  I guess I only answered half the issue but that's not enough 
to pass a 2 question test!;-)

If you don't have user profiles set up, your desktop is
c:\windows\desktop,
so you should be able to compile a file with
g++ c:\windows\desktop\file.cpp

But I wouldn't recommend it.

Oops, happens all the time, as I go back and forth 'tween Unix and Win98.
Thanks for catching it and pointing it out!

 I'm guessing William's problem is that he doesn't know
how to find, using the command line, a file located on
the desktop.

1) Don't keep source files on the desktop.
2) If you must ignore 1, right click on your source file.
   Click on "Properties"
   Click on the "General" tab.  The "Location:" field should
     give you the file spec.
   On my machine, "g++ C:\WINNT\Profiles\drobinow.000\Desktop\foo.cc"
