hello im new to code blocks add i just ported over a simple console app from windows vc++ to Ubuntu codeblocksc++ and everything works fine. but when i try to run the app as a stand alone app i double click it and nothing happens. if i open it from terminal it works fine. but i really just want to be able to open it by itself.

That is normal behavior in *nix. It has nothing to do with Code::Blocks itself.

thanks for the reply. i don`t mean to offend but it doesn't really help much. could you at least point me in the right direction. i mean it should be pretty simple but if codeblocks has nothing to do with it then what do i need to do to Linux to make it open up my app?

If it's a console app it needs either a real console/terminal or a terminal-emulator to have visible output under X.

so theres no way to get terminal to open it automatically when i double click it. if thats true then oh well i guess thanks for the help anyways.
i have one extra question to ask. how do i get the compiler/ide to make a release build. thanks everyone for the help.

Choose the Release build target if you're using a project template coming with C::B
