    Here's to hoping that you get mod-bombed to disprove your little theory :-p

    Does anyone know of a good book on C++ programming in Linux?

    I'm taking a C++ class at the local college that's being taught by the Unix guru. The class is using Visual Studio .NET as the IDE (which the instructor is not familar with and is threatening to go to Linux instead). At home, I'm using Visual C++ 6.0 Learning Edition that was provided by the Deitel and Deitel book. Tried using Visual C++ Express edition but it seems more trouble to use (e.g., there's no automatic prompt to prevent the DOS box from disappearing).

    Anyway, I tried compling the sample programs under gcc and g++ on my Linux file server, and I get a lot of errors. I thought C++ (or at least, C) was supposed to portable. ;) I would like to learn how to program basic C++ fluently on both platforms.

    Riiiggghhhttt....So anyone posting an honest question about something they don't know about gets replies from people like you. At least the guy above you didn't wimp out and post AC. Afraid of a girl are we?
