compiling a *.C file with gcc -> error

[cvmostert]

Hi there,

I am trying to compile a simple C++ program with gcc and i get the error:

Look at output.txt file below... could not paste output... too many faces what so ever...


I compiled it on another machine with gcc and it works well...

i have the build-essential package installed aswell...?

it probably is a simple mistake... here is the program... i am starting to learn to program in C++

// increaser.. using Void!

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void increase (void* data, int size)
{
	switch (size)
	{
		case sizeof(char) : (*((char*)data))++; break;
		case sizeof(int) : (*((int*)data))++; break;
	}
}

int main ()
{
	char a = 'x';
	int b = 1602;
	increase (&a,sizeof(a));
	increase (&b,sizeof(b));
	cout << a << ", " << b << endl;
	return 0;
