Have you RTFM, STFW, RTFFAQ about C and C compiling? ,--- * http://cygwin.com/lists.html | Finally, make sure when you send a message to a Cygwin list that it | actually has something to do with Cygwin. What do we mean by that? | Well, if you can't install the Cygwin C compiler, then that has | something to do with Cygwin. If you don't know C very well and need | some pointers on writing a program, that really has nothing to do with | Cygwin. If you are trying to run the Cygwin version of bash (the | standard UNIX shell) and it hangs, then that's probably a Cygwin | problem. If you can't figure out how to set up a command alias in | bash, that's not a Cygwin question. These Cygwin questions are | considered "on topic". The non-Cygwin questions are considered "off | topic". | | Why do we make this distinction? For two reasons: 1) as mentioned, the | email traffic is very high so, by keeping things "on topic" we can cut | down on some list traffic and 2) there are usually much better places | on the Internet where you can get definitive answers for your | off-topic-for-cygwin question. It doesn't make sense to ask | non-experts to teach you about C or bash. `--- > Which one is better of those two? Which one is better - C or C++? I think you desperately need some knowledge on C and C compiling. Can someone point Rudolf to an appropriate newsgroup or mailing list? I neither know the answer nor the right place to ask.
