无法编译任何 C++ 代码

Question

Whenever I try to compile a C++ file with IOStream , I get this error.. I've tried reinstalling GCC G++ (both 4.6 and 4.9) AND cpp.. It hasnt helped (or maybe I didnt do it the right way). How do I fix this error

Answer 1

I saw the same error using openmpi and a newer version of g++. You probably are using an mpi installation compiled with another C++ compiler. Compare output of mpicxx -v and g++ -v. I guess mpicxx -v will display an older g++ version, than you have and reinstall your mpi with the newer g++ version you are using.

I get this error when I build GCC on RHEL5 and then run it on RHEL7.

The underlying cause is the fixincludes mechanism in the GCC build. This copies (and modifies) various headers from /usr/include on the build system to <prefix>/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/<version>/include-fixed/ . Some of these headers from RHEL5 cause compilation errors on RHEL7, even after they are "fixed" by fixincludes .

My solution is simply to remove these headers from the include-fixed directory:

features.h
pthread.h
wchar.h
sys/stat.h
bits/string2.h

With these removed, my compilation errors disappear.
