easy question...
« on: December 01, 2011, 07:26:06 pm »
Hey,
Really basic question I know - but I'm worried i've messed some settings up or something.
When I select build and run I don't get the program window (the white on black writing?)
any one know what i've done as it was working this morning?
cheers

and when tryin to build a new one i get;

"CO52test - 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.

Did you install a Compiler?
If not, then install one.

Don't include the "bin" in the "Compiler's installation directory" field.



Note the names of the compiler and debugger. (These posted are for windows).
