Title: Using the gnu compiler outside of code::blocks
Post by: F1n on March 25, 2014, 07:33:03 am

Hello all, firstly I apologize if this question is obvious or misplaced.

It's my understanding that the gnu compiler was downloaded along with Code::Blocks, since this is the compiler I choose when I write and run C++ programs. My problem is that I'm hoping to use gnu tools such as objdump and the debugger to view the assembly language translation of my compiled programs. Is there a way to either use this tool through Code::Blocks or use the gnu compiler on a text editor file (such as one from notepad++) via a command prompt, and if so what is the command sequence? I'm running Windows 7 by the way and I greatly appreciate the help.

Apology not accepted, we have rules please follow them!

We can't comment or give support for other editors you have to ask on their support channels.
For running the commands - yes you can do it... just try it.

BTW: C::B's debugger plugin supports viewing the disassembly - Debug -> Debug windows -> Disassembly

Duly noted, thank you, that's the main thing I needed.
