Hi guys, im having trouble using my c++ program and i was wondering if anyone could help
you see, i just installed code block to my laptop and my pc. the problem is that after i typed in a program, i tried to build and run but nothing happens. no black window, no message on the build log, nothing.
Im not sure if i have installed it incorrectly, if something is wrong with the compiler, or if my computer systems is inadequate, my c++ class at colege showed us the program and it worked fine, i dont get why it wont build programs on my computer
any help will be appreciated. thanks.
Without very many details (OS, compiler, etc.), it is difficult to say what the problem is; however, one of the following wiki-pages may have the section of setup you missed (it is most likely a setup problem, not a hardware issue).
* Installing Code::Blocks (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Code::Blocks)
* Installing a supported compiler (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_a_supported_compiler)
* Creating a new project (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Creating_a_new_project)
im using a windows 7 system.
Did you use installer with MinGW bundled (codeblocks-10.05mingw-setup.exe (http://prdownload.berlios.de/codeblocks/codeblocks-10.05mingw-setup.exe))?
If not, did you install MinGW (http://www.mingw.org/) (or TDM-GCC (http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/start)) to the default path of C:\MinGW?
* If you did not install it, Code::Blocks will not be able to do anything because it needs a compiler.
* If it was not installed to C:\MinGW, Code::Blocks will need to be told where to find it.
-Open Settings->Compiler and debugger...->Toolchain executables (tab) and select the location of the MinGW folder for the Compiler's installation directory box.
