making a working .exe than i can send to other people
seventhmoon:
I'm new to C++. I've just made my first Hello World application, and I've run it and it runs fine. I was wondering how I can 'Publish' a working .exe that I can send to other people (just an example). There is a exe in my project folder but when i click on it it pops up very fast and the closes.

Add this before return 0;
--- Code: (cpp) ---std::cout << std::endl << "Press Enter to exit.";
std::cin.get();
--- End code ---

To publish a program, you can upload it to a web server or ftp server.
To prevent your program from closing (which is perfectly normal, by the way), you can for example wait for keyboard input. Look at the C/C++ new project template to learn how that is done (or look at a "learning C" tutorial.
Please do note that there are forums and collections of frequently asked questions dedicated to general C++ questions such as these (googling for C++ faq may help). We are a Code::Blocks forum.

Maybe that should be a "learning C++" tutorial. :lol:
Yeah I just told him how to wait for input. std::cin.get() :) Although it only waits for a carrige return IIRC.

And a nice C\C++ reference (The STL reference helps me alot).
