Nothing will compile
« on: October 21, 2008, 01:31:16 am »
Hey there,

I've been using CodeBlocks for around a year now, and the problem only started recently when I reformatted. Nothing I write will compile, and there are no build messages, it just remains blank. I'm 95% sure that the problem is that my local hard drive is now H:\ instead of C:\... but it there anyway I can fix it? Only being able to compile at school would be a major inconvenience :(.

Any help would be appreciated, even if it's a "Sorry, there's nothing you can do about it".

Thanks :D

Did you install a compiler framework (e.g. MinGW)?
Did you setup the compiler correctly?
Compiler logging: Settings->Compiler & Debugger->tab "Other"->Compiler logging="Full command line"

I did download the MinGW version, and I've reinstalled CodeBlocks. It has to be a problem with C::B, because I just tried it on a computer at school and the same problem occurred. There goes my theory :(.

Well, I just tried it on a computer at work and the problem didn't occur. So there goes the theory that it's a problem with Code::Blocks...

Please don't just blame it on a bug in Code::Blocks and give up. Code::Blocks works for hundreds of users on a daily basis, so this is probably solvable with a minimal effort from you to figure out what's going wrong.

I'm pretty sure it's just a bug with what I'm working with, not all of C::B, so maybe this was the wrong place to ask
