Newbie question

Post by ma_t14 »

Hi,

I am just starting out with Code Lite trying to learn C++. I tried code blocks previously and whenever i built and executed a program the command prompt window stayed open until I pressed a key. In code light it simply closes instantly. Is there an option somewhere to make it stay open like in code blocks?

Thank you in advance

Hello

In the Workspace view, in left dockable frame, right click on your project => Settings...
On the Common settings / general page, you can check "Pause when execution ends"

I assume that it was checked by default since the setting was enabled when I checked. Still the cmd window closes after execution. Is this is a bug?

I am using Windows 8 if that makes any difference

EDIT

Nevermind, I was running the debugger instead of running the program :oops:
