Hi Neo,

Will make sure to use the correct language hence forth.

Actually like what you had mentioned earlier it shows that the latest version of GCC is by default present in the version of redhat linux that Iam using.

so I think I can directly start compiling c and c++ code instead of trying to install the older version of GCC compiler as it might lead to a conflict....

Hope what Iam saying is correct.

Regards,
vijaya

Correct. You don't need to install GCC unless the version of the OPTV SDK fails to compile due to compiler errors. This normally happens when the library versions are not compatible. If your OPTV SDK compiles, and it seems that it does, you should be fine.

You can contact OPTV, give them your GCC version number and ask them if they have any further recommendations. Often, the instructions will say "GCC version x.y.z, or higher".

Do not go back to an earlier version of GCC.

.... From my mobile...

viji19812001,

Just to let you know that downgrading your GCC to a older version will break your linux system. Please don't do that in the future or else you might want to re-install your system. Linux kernel is so dependent in glibc and gcc.

Just a piece of advise.

Cheers,

did you install gcc and make individually or did you "apt-get install buildessential"
