command line: g++ filename.cpp -o filename.pd_linux -no-pie
works.

@seb-harmonik.ar Thx I use ctrl-shift-b for vs code. this launches the build, which for me is with gcc.

@whale-av I tried to open Pd this way but got the same error, plus cannot open library, but thanks!

#include "m_pd.h"

#include <iostream>

class helloworld {
public:
helloworld() {}
void bang() {
std::cout << "Hello world !!" << std::endl;
}
};

int main() {
helloworld obj;
obj.bang();
return 0;
}

It's a single .cpp file. I'm learning that the position-independent executable flag is created at compile time. I think I need to know how to compile to a non PIE. Nothing in the source code goes to memory allocation...there's no new or static or anything. I tried using the makefile in pd docs but it apparently ignores my file. Hold on I'll give you the source

C++ code successfully compiled found and recognized by Pd--can anyone tell me how to get it to load? Thx
