compiling c++ code at runtime

[ArunPrakash]

Hi all,
I have a requirement in which I have to compile a given a c++ code(
say Code A ) from inside some other c++ code( say code B ) and get the
errors if any, and call a function inside the compiled c++ code( code
A ) from code B. This is for automating a programming competition
sort of thing. Is there a way to do this or can i use standard
compilers ( like tcc or bcc ) to achieve this effect. Plz help me.

Thanks in Advance and Regards,
Arun Prakash. B

Just some additional comments to the OP:

This is highly platform specific behavior. The way Gianni described works
well under Unix/Linux but there is no dlopen() call under Windows. There you
have a more or less similar API via the LoadDynamicLibrary call. You might
