Strange problem with compiler

Hello,
I am running Code::Blocks version 13.13 on windows 8.
(8.0). The compiler I use is GNU GCC compiler.

When I open a .cbp, Code::Blocks show this error :




but the fact is that i'm not using Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003, as you can see on the following pictures, i'm running GNU GCC Compiler, set as default :







Build log:

Probably the toolchain path within the compiler options is not setup correctly?! (Do you have a compiler installed?)
Goto "Settings->Compiler...->Global compiler settings->Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003->Toolchain executables" and fix the compiler's setup.
Skipping...
Nothing to be done (all items are up-to-date).


Thank you for your attention.

Are yo sure, that neither the project nor any target inside uses MSVC ?

When I set GNU GCC or any of the others compilers as default in Settings > Compiler, and click on OK, Code::Blocks sends me the error about MSVC.
So I tried as you said, to look if nothing's using MSVC. In Project > Build Options > Debug/Release, I set GNU GCC and get a new error :

My build messages are :
||=== Build: Debug in Project title (compiler: GNU GCC Compiler) ===|
\W3||No such file or directory|
\Zi||No such file or directory|
\D_DEBUG||No such file or directory|
\MDd||No such file or directory|
||=== Build failed: 4 error(s), 0 warning(s) (0 minute(s), 0 second(s)) ===|


And my build log is :
mingw32-gcc.exe: error: /W3: No such file or directory
mingw32-gcc.exe: error: /Zi: No such file or directory
mingw32-gcc.exe: error: /D_DEBUG: No such file or directory

So, the project was using MSVC.

You need to fix the project or install MSVC (and configure CB toolchain).

Make a decision.

Yes but the upper logs are the logs I get when I set GNU GCC in the project's build options. Is that what you meant ? What  do these logs mean ?

Have you made the decision? If yes, what did you decide to do?

Edit: To fix the project; remove the MSVC options that are in the Compiler/Linker other options section in the project.

Okay now I'm getting

||=== Build: Debug in Problem 22 (compiler: GNU GCC Compiler) ===|
ld.exe||cannot find -lmsvcrtd.lib|
ld.exe||cannot find -lmsvcprtd.lib|
||=== Build failed: 2 error(s), 0 warning(s) (0 minute(s), 0 second(s)) ===|


I removed the options here :



and in Debug/Release, is that what you meant ?

Yes, for the Compiler "other options"

Also, you need to check the "Linker Settings" other options and remove the libs not supplied by your MinGW GCC.

I did remove Linker Options too, and I get the errors from the previous post.

As I said remove the libs in the error you posted from the Linker Settings!

Edit2: You posted a picture of the "Compiler Settings" look to the right and you should see the Linker Settings in the Project Build Options.

Edit: "-lmsvcrtd.lib" A lib that needs removed; likely called "msvcrtd.lib" in the linker settings screen.
