I think he sets it because the Slackware official Qt3 build scripts we (I and Darrell) based ours on installs a profile script in /etc/profile.d that sets CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH. I don't know why Slackware sets this variable but it has done it since at least 2003 and still does today (in the Qt4 package). > > If you have a specific reason for setting CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH then > that is different. > > Tim > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > trinity-devel-unsubscribe@...
