Vista problem -- nothing happens
« on: December 05, 2008, 04:17:21 pm »
Hi,

I tried to help a student today getting started with Codeblocks for C-programming course.
We downloaded the file codeblocks-8.02mingw-setup.exe from the download-page dated    28 Feb 2008.

When I install it on my own XP-laptop, wrote a simple "helloworld" pgm, and clicked Run-button, it worked just fine.

But he had Vista-laptop.
Installation seemed to work fine, but when I click Build or Run to execute the pgm,
just *nothing* happens.

I saw another thread people got some error-msgs under Vista - but here it wasnt even that -- just nothing.

Anyone recognizes this problem or know a solution for it?

TIA, jps

Enable full command-line logging, please. (Settings -> Compiler and debugger -> Global compiler settings -> Other settings -> Compiler logging = Full command line)
