gcc, g++, -lstdc++ what to use ?

[owning]

hello all,
I have a make file which looks like :

CC=/usr/bin/g++
CPPFLAGS=-c -g -I/usr/local/Coral/include -I.
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/Coral/lib -lcoral -lpcap -lhashtab -lz
OBJECTS=coral_test.o \
recycle.o \
lookupa.o \
hashtab.o
TARGET=coral

$(TARGET): $(OBJECTS)
$(CC) -g -o $(TARGET) $(OBJECTS) $(LDFLAGS)

coral_test.o: coral_test.c Makefile
$(CC) $(CPPFLAGS) coral_test.c

clean:
rm -rf $(OBJECTS) $(TARGET)

It includes complilation for hash functions and a custom software files.

But when i try to make it give me error as :
/usr/bin/g++ -c -g -I/usr/local/Coral/include -I. coral_test.c

make: *** [coral_test.o] Error 1


I have tried changing the compiler to g++ and using the -lstdc++ flag but everytime it gives me an error can someone help me with this.
What should i used here.


Thanks a lot

Your problem is the code, it is too old gnu c++. It still have option -traditional,
but it does nothing. So, fix each error by hand. The messages tell the problem:
the code uses integers, where is should use pointers etc.

But how come when i compile my code separately ie. the coral_test.c
and the hash implementation they just work fine. But when i try to merge both the codes together i get these errors. Is there some problem in my make file.
Can you please let me know. Because i just wrote it using information from net.

my structure looks like for hash:

-rw-r--r-- 1 hetawal hetawal 8753 Mar 29 15:24 hashtab.c
-rw-r--r-- 1 hetawal hetawal 6355 Mar 29 15:23 hashtab.h

-rw-r--r-- 1 hetawal hetawal 4429 Apr 8 21:19 unique.c


when i just compile unique.c it works fine alone.


And when i try to use the code in my coral_test.c as describe in my above email. It gives me error. Same is case with my coral_test.c when compiled separtalety.


Can you please help me to merge them together


Thanks
