Using .o files

[Tony Xu]

Hi,
I'm having some problems using the Date.o file that's provided. I used
putty to remote on to cpu05.student.math.uwaterloo.ca

I keep getting an error

Date.o: could not read symbols: File in wrong format
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

when I run the command g++ DateTestHarness.o Date.o


My steps were



1. g++ -c DateTestHarness.cpp Date.h
2. g++ DateTestHarness.o Date.o

Does anyone know what's wrong? Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

OO never mind, I figured it out, I was remoting to the solaris servers
instead of the linux servers.
