Include problem with new install
« on: November 02, 2009, 10:46:33 pm »
Hi,

I've been using C::B for months now, and it went quite well. My program uses SFML 1.5 and OpenAl 1.1 and it used to compile without any error or warning. Last week I reinstalled Vista to correct various unrelated bugs, so I had to reinstall C::B too. It is the third time I reinstall it but this time I encounter a very annoying problem.

The compiler doen't have a clue where any file is! Isn't it supposed to know where to find such files as "iostream" or "stdlib.h" ?

I use C::B 8.02 with MingW included, on Vista. I don't know much about compiler settings, but I never had to change anything except for SFML and OpenAl specific libraries.

If I indicate to search in "include" it doesn't seem to care about subfolders, since it throws errors about files included in files...

I really have no clue, since it never happened before. Could somebody help?

Install a newer version of MinGW; the version shipped with Code::Blocks 8.02 is NOT Vista compatible.
