Hi Andrew I apologize for that. Assumed that I would have not built the gcc with the correct set of configure parameters. Please find below a very simple test source : /* ** Includes */ /*START INCLUDE*/ #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> using namespace std; /* STOP INCLUDE*/ main() { char s[10]; std::strcpy(s,"NO TAG"); printf("%s\n",s); } Hope this is ok.

You really should now this by now, you've been posting here long enough. Andrew.
