G++ instead of GCC for C files on Lubuntu.
« on: August 03, 2016, 03:56:40 pm »
Hi,
I'm new with CodeBlocks on Linux (Lubuntu).
My problem is that codeblock try to compile my c files with G++ instead of GCC.
First, it used well gcc , but final compilation is with G++
Do you have had this problem ?
Is this allright ?
In project ->buil options, I've Gnu CC ...
I don't know if all is right...
Thank for help

If you are ONLY compiling C files; I would change the toolchain setting to use gcc as the linker instead of g++.

If you do both; I would suggest making a copy of the compiler and setting the copy to "gcc" instead of "g++".

Link that directs to the location of toolchain setting.

Hi,
thanks for answer.
I, for the moment, do only C. But, when I've installed CB, and tried to compile the "hello world" project, in C with main.c,  CB tells me that G++ wasn't on my system...
That why I ask my question.

And, I told you how to fix that issue.

Do you still need any more help?

Hi,
I'll test it tomorrow, thank you.
It's late here, and I've seen your post, but it was for all which may have the same problem.
Thank's for help :)
