Problem with headers/search directories

User forums > Using Code::Blocks

<< < (3/3)

CBuser:
On another computer which has PSDK, Cygwin, and Dev-C++ installed in the same directory paths as this computer (though Dev-C++ doesn't use my Cygwin installation, and I've un-installed Dev-C++ from this computer), my compiler includes are as follows:

C:
- D:\Dev-Cpp\include
C++:
- D:\Dev-Cpp\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.2\include
- D:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2\backward
- D:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2\mingw32
- D:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2
- D:\Dev-Cpp\include

Note that my project is setup as a C (not C++) Win32 DLL.

The Dev-C++ project has the following directory entries:
Library:
- D:\Program Files\Microsoft SDK\Lib
- D:\psdk\wua_api_headers_i386
Include:
- D:\Program Files\Microsoft SDK\include
- D:\psdk\wua_api_headers_i386

You don't need Microsoft's psdk.

For whatever reason, this is something I over-looked, perhaps because I didn't understand it well. I'm not sure what the differences are between MinGW and Cygwin, or how to specify MinGW as the compiler. Currently in CB I have 'Cygwin GCC' selected as the compiler; I don't see any mention of 'MinGW'. I installed MinGW and tried selecting 'GNU GCC Compiler' as the compiler (not knowing what else to try). CB was unable to detect my installation of MinGW, so I pointed it there manually ("D:\MinGW"), but buiding results in the error blow.

Compiling: generic.c
mingw32-gcc.exe: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory

As for Dev-C++, the compiler is set as 'Default compiler', with no other options, therefore I've never tampered with this (it just worked).

Unfortunately, I'm no less confused at this point. Any ideas?

That error is common for Windows Vista. What version of windows are you using?

If Vista see link below.

CBuser:
I am indeed running Windows Vista on this computer. Actually, before you posted, I found the cc1.exe file and added it's path as an 'additional path' to the toolchain executables--this resulted in a successful compile. However, when I added compiler search directory "D:\Program Files\Microsoft SDK\include" to my project, again, I'm flooded with errors. I then read your post, continued to follow the suggestions provided (manually adding several compiler and linker search directories to the global compiler settings), but the errors I receive when trying to build do not change.

Example of the first couple or so errors:

Compiling: generic.c

You have to define

_M_IX86

To avoid that error.

Note, I don't have the time to reply any more to this thread.
