linux mint - fatal error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
« on: January 28, 2017, 01:03:17 pm »
I have just installed codeblocks on my linux mint.  I wrote my first C programm and then I try to compile it / build, but with no success.

I get following error:
fatal error: stdio.h: No such file or directory|

I guess the problem is that the file stdio.h is missing and not found. How can I solve this?

That link didnt help me.
The solution for my problem was installing package "build-essential" using the synaptic package manager
