Must use C++ for STDCOMP.H ..... Help

[emilyjohnson]

Hi,

I have never use Borland, and I am encountering a compilation error while trying run make (I created a Makefile using tmake). Below is a short discription of the error message generate during the compilation. It seems that the borland library, in this case, stdcomp.h has a problem. Has anyone encounter this problem before? Thanks.

Change the name of Shape.cc to Shape.cpp. The compiler looks at the .cc extenstion and thinks it is a C program instead of a C++ program.
