Though in this case, there is a compiler warning to help you at
least...
forget its name tho.
What would the compiler be warning about? x.c is a C file. x.C is a
C++ file.
On a case-insensitive file system? I don't know that the compiler can
tell on the name alone.
A filesystem such as HFS+ is case-preserving, so if you called it x.C
it's called x.C so gcc will assume it's a C++ file. You could also open
it as x.c or X.C or X.c but that isn't what it's called, AFAIK. e.g.:
mabinogi:~ leeg$ mkdir Foo
mabinogi:~ leeg$ cd foo
mabinogi:~/foo leeg$ pwd
/Users/leeg/foo
mabinogi:~/foo leeg$ cd ..
mabinogi:~ leeg$ ls -ld FoO
drwxr-xr-x 2 leeg leeg 68 Dec 14 23:54 FoO
[of course, the -x argument will solve almost everything, except a CVS
checkout clobbering its own output...]
