I just installed gcc under Cygwin. I tried to compile the requisite "Hello, world!" program, but gcc didn't give any messages, nor generate any output. Here are the specifics: Code: #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main (void) { cout << "Hello, world!"; return 0; } Compiler command: gcc -o hello hello.cpp gcc version: 3.4.4 Thanks for your help. Bill P.S.: I've also tried g++ and c++ instead of gcc, to no avail. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/gcc-does-nothing-tf3341149.html#a9292367 Sent from the gcc - Help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
