Wont Build C code

<< < (3/5) > >>

BlueHazzard:
Does the \\fs02\users\richardpel\C Code\hello.exe exist?
Have you made a project, or only opened a c file?

Rich_P:
HI, The exe does not exist as i assumed this is generated when i click on build?

It is a base .c file i am opening and then pressing build,

I have tried creating from a project, and choosing "c" as the language,

writing the code into the window, saving the file and then building it, buti get the same error each time,

thanks

Rich

Try to put the file or better the project into another folder, yours looks like a network folder.
Windows >= 7 is very (very !) restrictive when you try to create executables in folders it thinks you should not do that (without telling you anything about that).

Rich_P:
I Will try that Jen,

Just so as i am not being silly, i will describe my process from the start

1, Open C::B
2, Select "Create New Project"
3, Select "files" from left
4, select"C/C++"
5, Select next
6, Select "C"
7, Select the filename and where i want to save it to
8, Click ok
9, Write my "Hello World" code
10, hit save,
11, hit build

Get nothing except the error?

Hmm confused,

I tried building as a project, and importing the Hello.c file and then hitting build, and i got this message

-------------- Build: Debug in Hello (compiler: GNU GCC Compiler)---------------

mingw32-gcc.exe -Wall  -g     -c C:\simple\Hello\Hello.c -o obj\Debug\Hello.o
mingw32-g++.exe  -o bin\Debug\Hello.exe obj\Debug\Hello.o   
Execution of 'mingw32-g++.exe  -o bin\Debug\Hello.exe obj\Debug\Hello.o' in 'C:\simple\Hello' failed.
Nothing to be done (all items are up-to-date).

Am i making progress? lol

BlueHazzard:
"C:\simple\Hello\Hello.c -o obj\Debug\Hello.o"
"C:" is a bad place to save/build data.

Windows >= 7 is a b***h with the user rights. If you don't have a second partition, to test the build process, try to run codeblocks as admin, or to put your project in your home folder.
