Question

I’m completely new to C++, but I have created a minor program, looking to port the program to other computers, but when I “install” the program I get this error…-static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ missing, is there a file I should be including in the program itself, or is this a library I have to install on each computer? The computers that I expect to run the program will be windows xp. Source code of the file is as follows:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <direct.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
    _chdir("C:\\Program Files\\NCHSoftware\\Talk\\");
    string number = "start talk.exe -dial " + std::string(argv[1]+4);
    system(number.c_str());
    exit;
    return 0;
}

Answer 1

They are shared lib’s that would need to be on the host computer.

To learn how to compile a static version;
See here: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Link-Options.html
Read the “-static-libgcc” & “-static-libstdc++” sections.
