I am trying to use slacko puppy to compile C++ programs. I have the devx package installed. The test program compiled correctly. Its sole purpose was to add 3 and 4 to get 7. The output was 7. I then attempted to write something using the GNU MP libraries, the output of that was 7. My math is shaky at times but I am reasonably certain that (9*10^200)-5 is not equal to 7. I deleted everything, moved to a different directory and specified a different output file. Still 7. According to my c++ program the following lines all output 7:

cout << "I am not seven." << endl;
cout << "90000000000000000000000000" << endl;
cout << a - b << endl;
(where a =100 and b=50).

Why are g++/c++ working off an old program that no longer exists on my computer? Why do they use this nonexistent program regardless of what input file I point it at? How do I make it stop?

HURRAY


I am pretty sure it's not slacko's fault.
I bet a lot that the ThreadStarter has forgotten to change the current working directory OR did not started clean

Yep, wrong CWD, thanks for the help and sorry for having to ask in the first place.
