Title: My first project
Post by: BobM on May 12, 2015, 12:46:23 am

Hi

I have opened an existing project namely- cgp-Library.cbp
This project is provided by http://www.cgplibrary.co.uk/

I have selected one of the provided examples and done a 'build'
When I try to 'run' it I get the following message..........

You must select a host application to 'run' a library

What exactly should I be doing to run each of the examples, one at a time, to see the output ?

I suggest asking the developers of the library and not the developers of the IDE, they should know it.

thanks............

It is up to the user as to which IDE he/she uses with this library

I just presumed that the error message pertained to Code:Blocks and not the library

If you build a library, you can (of course) not test it directly but you need an (example) application using it.
You can configure this application in "Project -> Set program's arguments" .
