Question

I’m trying to build a makefile for an application that use the lib string iostream and fstream.that’s what I did up to now

       CPP      = gcc
       LIB_DIR      = ./incl
       PROGRAMS = test
       PROGS_O      = action_rec.o
       CPPFLAGS = -I$(LIB_DIR) -pg -g
       VPATH        = ./src/
       OBJFILES = $(VPATH)$(patsubst %.cpp,%.o,$(wildcard *.cpp))
       LIBS     = -02 -liostream -lfstream -lstdlib -lstring

when I try to use my makefile I get as result that everything that need the lib string fstream and iostream was not declared, while everything that need the lib stdlib works properly.
can someone tell me why?
thank you

Try taking all the -lstring -stdlib -liostream -lfstream out and see if it fixes it.

And compile with g++ so it finds other things it needs to link C++ code.
