Hello World C++ doesnt work but C works?

Altera_Forum · ‎02-15-2006

Trying to create a simple C++ hello world, but is getting this error when linking. Of course, changing the file name to .c as opposed to .cpp would solve the problem, but how come C++ dont get no love? =p

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
    printf("Short size: %d", (unsigned long) sizeof(short));
     
    return 0; 
}

make -k all 
  no emulation specific options.
