4. g++ myfile.cpp compiles C++ code

C++ and C are very different languages, compilers that expect C (gcc) will not compile C++ code.
ok, this is sort of a misconception. gcc compiles both. I just finished an ADMIN control area in C++ with the .cpp extension and compiled it with gcc without problem. but in response to the actual problem here, id just use this line.
we'll call the source EXAMPLE.cpp, and the output will be EXOUT."file".

gcc -lg++ -Wall -pedantic -ansi -g -o EXOUT EXAMPLE.cpp


this is a good choice for debugging and compiling, it calls upon the normal system area for #include header files, uses the Wall function for the debugging side of things, ansi for ..... ansi compatibility i think and the -o gets rid of the a.out leaving you with the desired file, with the blank extension for linux/Unix.... hope that helped..Pe@cE

atscc(1)						      General Commands Manual							  atscc(1)

NAME

       atscc - ATS compiler frontend

SYNOPSIS

       atscc [options] files...

DESCRIPTION

       atscc is a frontend to the atsopt Anairiats compiler for the ATS language.

OPTIONS

       atscc  has a command-line option syntax in the style of gcc and accepts all the same options, many of them being passed directly to the gcc
       backend.  Here are summarized the non-gcc options.

       -cc, --compile
	      Only compile the given ATS source files into C files.

       -D_ATS_GCATS
	      Enable the garbage collector in the generated executable.

       -IATS <path>
	      Add a path to search for ATS files when doing static and dynamic loads.

       -tc, --typecheck
	      Typecheck the given ATS source files, but go no further.

       --version
	      Show ATS/Anairiats version and gcc version.

EXAMPLES

       atscc -o test -O3 test.dats

       Compile test.dats to an executable named test.  Tell gcc to use the third level of optimization.

       atscc -tc test.dats

       Typecheck test.dats only.

       atscc -o test.o -c test.dats

       Compile test.dats to an object file named test.o.

SEE ALSO

       atsopt(1), atslex(1),
       These programs are documented fully by The ATS/Anairiats user's manual available via the web at http://www.ats-lang.org/
