2. Change the directory to the working (c++ files containing) directory
3. If the file's name is something like
( C ) a. "dukenumem.c" , then type "gcc dukenukem.c -o dukenukem"
(C++) b. "dukenukem.cpp" then type "g++ dukenukem.cpp -o dukenukem"
4. END
Here dukenukem is output file name and can be given any name and "-o" is the ouput parameter. If u wont give the output paramtere and output filename then default output file created is "a.out"!
compiling java is same as in windows!
tech_your_future said:for c++ *people.cs.uchicago.edu/~jacobm/linux_programming.html it's section 2,4 & 5 that you need to look at. Section 2 lists some CLI editors, but you can use GUI ones if you find CLI editors difficult to start with.
for java. use some package manager like yum or smart(i am using smart on suse 10 and it's good) and install sun-java-jdk or java-xxx-sun-devel, by whatever name it is listed. Then you can open up the terminal and you will have access to all the tools in sun's jdk.
