Title: C::B Can't find the installation folder for Intel C/C++ Compiler
Post by: phazall on July 11, 2015, 08:30:23 pm
EDIT: The problem has been fixed. I went to Project > Build Options and then set the compiler to the desired compiler.

I can't compile my program because I'm missing the Intel C/C++ compiler executable.

I don't even have that compiler installed on my windows 8.1 64-bit system! And, I have the MinGW compiler installed. I have in the compiler settings menu the GNU GCC compiler set as the default compiler, among a list of a plethora of other compilers to choose from, most of which I have never installed.

I have tried resetting my compiler settings to default, but C::B still gets hung up on the fact that it can't find the Intel C/C++ compiler.

Here's what it looks like with the default MinGW settings:

And this is the little bubble that pops up after I hit "OK":

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!

Can you post the exact steps to reproduce the problem?
Reading your description I'm not really sure what you're complaining about.

Certainly. I'm trying to compile a simple "Hello World" program, but am unable to do so because I am missing the Intel C/C++ compiler. However, I want to use the MinGW compiler. I don't even have the Intel C/C++ compiler installed on my system. I've included some pictures of my system in the above post.

Are you sure mingw is the designated compiler for your project/target in 'project -> build options' menu item?

If by designated compiler you mean that I have set it as the default compiler, then yes, I am sure.

In fact, when I arbitrarily select another compiler in the drop-down menu, and set that as the default compiler, then click "OK", I still get the same popup shown in the second picture in my first post.

EDIT:

Sorry, I misread your comment. No, I did not. I switched it to that and then reset my settings to default. Everything works great! Thanks!
