Hm, is there a special CC variable for CPP files? I think I wondered  
about that.

I qualify, unfortunately ;-) I also tried using gstep-make (on MacOSX)  
to compile a C++ project, but failed for reasons I don't remember  
anymore :-)

I think activating C++ linking on non-empty CC_FILES should be OK.  
However, then CC_FILES should support compilation of .c files using g+ 
+. Eg:
  CC_FILES = \
    a.cpp \
    b.c

If all that would work as-is on Windows to produce DLLs and such, it  
would be awesome! :-)
Further it would be very nice if one could use the VS C++ compiler  
instead of g++. But that probably works already (CC=vcc++ or whatever)

Hm, sweet. I think I give it another try today and see what was wrong  
with using gsmake for me.

Thanks,
