Trouble building programs in C++

(1/1)

WickedWizard13:
Whenever I try to build a program nothing happens. I've tried changing the type of file but nothing changes. Also, every time I start up Code::Blocks I get the message "Can't find compiler executable in your configured search path for GNU GCC compiler". Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)

well something will pop up, or give you some hint what is going on....

Oh! Well.. there is clearly written what is going on: Codeblocks CAN'T FIND the compiler...

some reading for you:

[EDIT:]
This is probably what you need: http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/Installing_a_supported_compiler

To help you future we need to know what compiler you want to use, and what codeblocks installer file you have used (the exact name)...

greetings

Thanks for the help, I was able to figure it out with the last link. Sorry about the vagueness of the original post I'm new to programming and have almost no clue what I'm doing. Thanks!
