gcc and g++

[sudi]

Hi,
As the "man page" mentions, g++ is nothing but gcc with all the C++ options.
Is there a way I can check what the actual "gcc" command executed when
I type "g++ mycode.cpp" ?

Thanks,
Sudi

Particular build tools/compilers are off-topic in comp.lang.c++. As the
"lang" in the name suggests, this newsgroup is only about the language
itself. A better place for asking g++ questions is gnu.g++.help.

Yes. Add -v to the command line. "g++ --help" could have told you that,
too.

Also try "which g++", if your operating system supports the "which"
command.
