@cindex C++ runtime library
@cindex @code{libstdc++}
If you're going to use C++, you need to install the C++ runtime library.
This includes all I/O functionality, special class libraries, etc.
The standard C++ runtime library for GNU CC is called @samp{libstdc++}.
An obsolescent library @samp{libg++} may also be available, but it's
necessary only for older software that hasn't been converted yet; if
you don't know whether you need @samp{libg++} then you probably don't
need it.
Here's one way to build and install @samp{libstdc++} for GNU CC:
@itemize @bullet
@item
Build and install GNU CC, so that invoking @samp{gcc} obtains the GNU CC
that was just built.
@item
Obtain a copy of a compatible @samp{libstdc++} distribution. For
example, the @samp{libstdc++-2.8.0.tar.gz} distribution should be
compatible with GCC 2.8.0. GCC distributors normally distribute
@samp{libstdc++} as well.
@item
Set the @samp{CXX} environment variable to @samp{gcc} while running the
@samp{libstdc++} distribution's @file{configure} command. Use the same
@file{configure} options that you used when you invoked GCC's
@file{configure} command.
@item
Invoke @samp{make} to build the C++ runtime.
@item
Invoke @samp{make install} to install the C++ runtime.
@end itemize
To summarize, after building and installing GNU CC, invoke the following
shell commands in the topmost directory of the C++ library distribution.
For @var{configure-options}, use the same options that
you used to configure GNU CC.
@example
$ CXX=gcc ./configure @var{configure-options}
$ make
$ make install
@end example
@item
GNU CC includes a runtime library for Objective-C because it is an
integral part of the language. You can find the files associated with
