g++: command not found!

[JS]

When I write g++ in a shell I get the errormessage:

g++: command not found

But when I open Synaptic and search for g++ I have both**g++-2.95/3.2/3.4
listed as being installed.

Hope someone can help!!

Make sure the exe files are registered in the system dir (windows) or
/bin (Linux).

Use the command "whereis" to find g++.

What is the output of "whereis g++" ?

On my (Ubuntu linux box) a version number is added to the name
martin@ubuntu:~ $ ls /usr/bin/g++*
/usr/bin/g++-3.4
martin@ubuntu:~ $

If you installed 3.4.x with an rpm, it could be called g++_34

does it recognize gcc, c++ ?

Try "dpkg -L g++". On Debian Sarge, I get:
{tmp}> dpkg -L g++
/.
/usr
/usr/bin
/usr/share
/usr/share/man
/usr/share/man/man1
/usr/share/doc
/usr/bin/i386-linux-g++
/usr/bin/g++
/usr/share/man/man1/i386-linux-g++.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/g++.1.gz
/usr/share/doc/g++
and I see that I have g++ in /usr/bin. You could also try "dpkg -L g++ |
grep bin", or "dpkg -L gcc | grep bin".
