whenever i try to run my program the debugger panel  under   logs&other says

i have tried whatever i found under  "Debugger finished with status 0 Starting the debuggee failed: No executable specified, use `target exec'.

[debug]> quit " topics like omitting  spaces or unchecking -s flag ,but nothing works any help would be grateful

please use codetags for output

Code

[debug]E:/codeblockPrograms/fff/bin/Release/fff.exe: No such file or directory.

does the file exists?

if not your build process was not successfully.

Rebuild, and post the full build log in code tags

greetings

Why are you trying to debug a Release build in the first place? It has little to no debug info...

[Aristotle]

 
" please use code tags for output"

1) What is this code tags ?
2)"[debug]E:/codeblockPrograms/fff/bin/Release/fff.exe: No such file or directory." the file does exist ,fff is the name of my project?

"-------------- Clean: Debug in fff (compiler: GNU GCC Compiler)---------------

Cleaned "fff - Debug"

-------------- Build: Debug in fff (compiler: GNU GCC Compiler)---------------

mingw32-g++.exe -g     -c E:\codeblockPrograms\fff\main.cpp -o obj\Debug\main.o
mingw32-g++.exe  -o bin\Debug\fff.exe obj\Debug\main.o   
Process terminated with status 0 (0 minutes, 1 seconds)
0 errors, 0 warnings (0 minutes, 1 seconds)
"
 the above is the result under "build log" after rebuilt

When posting code to the forum it is extremely helpful for those who are trying to help you if you enclose your code in the [ code ][ /code ] tags.

There are two ways to do this

    Write out the [ code ]Your code here[ /code ] tags manually (without the spaces)
    Use the code # button and paste your text into the message text field.

fff.exe is the program you compiled.... fff is your project name
the program has to exist in the PATH_TO_YOUR_PROJECT\bin\debug folder... Does the file exists?

from your build log i can't see any problem. try to rebuild and than to debug...

Sorry for the trouble cause ,it was my AVG antivirus doing preventing from accessing the .exe file generated by code block ,i'll have to change  my antivirus, Thanks a lot for the cooperation.

[Commaster]

The problem is actually in that he is rebuilding the Debug build while trying to debug a Release build. (Look at the paths in build and debug logs)

generally this is no problem... if there are no debug symbols in the executable (release) gdb will say it, or he doesn't see any variables...
in this case gdb could not find/execute the application

Starting the debuggee failed: No executable specified, use `target exec'.

the problem is the Antivirus software... this shitty heuristic detection of viruses make a lot trouble in the last time, (also for me...)

greetings

[Commaster]

Maybe, just maybe, ... there was never ever a release build built...

[BlueHazzard]

Maybe that's true
