g++ compiler options for code spanning multiple lines

g++ compiler options for code spanning multiple lines

[Purnendu Ghosh]

hi ,
 I am compiling C++ code for VxWorks. Many parts of my code span mulitple 
lines.
Do i need to specifically add an "\" for continuing the next line.Currently 
i am not using it, but the code compiles except for one instance , where if 
i put "\" there is a successfull compilation.

The same code without "\" compiles successfully under Rational Rose 
Realtime(build for solaris) which uses g++.

Thanks In Advance
Purnendu Ghosh.

FYI:
I got an answer.
Compilers used by me :
in Rose RT:
    bash-3.00$ /vobs/gnu/gcc/SunOS-5.8/bin/g++ --version
    2.95.3

VxWorks:
    bash-3.00$ /vobs/ubtssw_tornado/host/gnu/3.3/sun4-solaris2/bin/c++ppc
--version
    c++ppc (GCC) 3.3-e500 20030421 (Wind River)

Older gcc version  , gives no  error on compilation , if there is no
"\" or a quote ("). The newer one , explicitly requires these for a
successful compilation. For solaris build i was using the older gcc:(
