C++ Compiler
Ubuntu
I originally built the examples in this book on Ubuntu 12.10 using g++ 4.7.2.
Install g++ using the following command:
| | sudo apt-get install build-essential |
OS X
I successfully built the examples in this book on Mac OS X 10.8.3 (Mountain Lion) using a gcc port. The version of gcc shipped with Xcode at the time of this writing, 4.2, will not successfully compile the C++ examples in this book.
To install the gcc port, you may need to install MacPorts, an infrastructure that allows you to install free software onto your Mac. Refer to http://www.macports.org/install.php for further information.
You will want to first update MacPorts.
| | sudo port selfupdate |
Install the gcc port using the following command:
| | sudo port install gcc47 ... |
