Title: Compiling C++ libraries
Post by: patryk77 on January 19, 2009, 12:18:20 am

I am trying to compile the SDL_Config library, but it uses C++ code.

If I use a Static library project, it refuses to compile as it seems to use a C compiler and does not find <map>, <vector>, etc.

How would I set the project to compile with the C++ compiler?

Thanks

Using GCC under Ubuntu 8.04 netbook remix

Files with the extension "c" are compiled using GCC (the C compiler). Files with the extension "cpp" (and others like cc) are compiled using the G++ compiler. Rename your files accordingly.
BTW: Searching the forums helps. You'll find more information on that topic in a query ~ 2-3 days before. Please search before asking.
