Why can't I compile HelloWorld in C++?

Question

I\'m trying to compile a simple Hello World program in C++ but I keep getting the following error...why?

gcc -o HelloWorldCompiled HelloWorld.cc
/tmp/ccvLW1e         


        

Answer 1

Or you could still use gcc but explicitly link with the c++ library thusly:

gcc -o HelloWorldCompiled HelloWorld.cc -lstdc++
