Compiler and debugger settings for code::blocks on a Mandriva One 2010.2 machine

Hello all! This is my first post here.

I have a problem with compiling programs i write in cb. It has to do with the settings i believe. When i try to compile the sample program, i get the message:

--- Quote ---"etc - Debug" uses an invalid compiler [YOUR ANSWER IS ALREADY THERE. SEARCH THE FORUMS!]. Probably the toolchain path within the compiler options is not setup correctly?! Skipping...
Nothing to be done.
--- End quote ---

So I went to the toolchain executables panel in the compiler and debugger settings. I am using the GNU GCC Compiler. Can anyone tell me what the settings should be? As in what the C compiler, C++ compiler, linkers, debuggers, resource compiler, and make program should be? Names of the programs? I think I am using gcc 4.2 version, but I dont really know how to check that.  :?

Thanks!

Type "gcc --version" and "g++ --version" in a terminal.
The defaults should be OK on all linuxes, so you do not need to do any changes.
Just check if the compiler/debugger is installed.

And check whether it's in /usr/bin or in (e.g.) /usr/local/bin.
In the second case, you have to fix the "Compiler's installation directory" accordingly.

I have these settings now:
C Compiler: gcc4.2
C++ Compiler: g++4.2
Linker for dynamic libs: ld
Linker for static libs: ld
Debugger: gdb
Resource compiler: gdb
Make program: make

I have gcc4.2 installed, and the executable file for that is in ¨/usr/bin¨ as are all the others: ld, gdb, g++4.2, and make. Does invalid compiler [YOUR ANSWER IS ALREADY THERE. SEARCH THE FORUMS!] in the error message mean that I am using a compiler that cannot be used in my version of linux?

Thanks!

Jenna:
Are you sure the executable is called gcc4.2 and not gcc-4.2 ?
You can use the little button at the right of the textbox to chose the executable to be sure.
