Michael,

The problem isn't converting your IDL routines to C++. The problem is
linking it to the libraries RSI used to build IDL. In your routines you call
'internal' IDL routines (like make_array, where etc.). In order to call
these routines from your (converted) program you have to rewrite them or use
a IDL library (but RSI isn't goinig to give it to you. Afterall this *IS*
the true value of IDL!)

Your question for 'stand-alone' IDL programs is a topic among users for as
long as I use IDL (9 years or so). A couple of years ago RSI offered to
compile IDL programs to standalone executables. Buth this was VERY expensive
(and they did it for you, so changing your code meant going back to RSI)

Hope this helps.

Cees
