Codelite and C language compiling?

[Andrevoce]

I am new to Codelite and programming in general. I just installed Codelite on my computer. I am trying to create a new workspace compliing in the C language, but when I click create new workspace, all I get is C++, node.js and PHP. What happened to the C language? Did I miss a step somewhere when I downloaded the program? Thanks for all your help. Andrew

Hi,

Did I miss a step somewhere when I downloaded the program?

No, all is well. Just create a C++ workspace. Then, when you add a project to it (Workspace > New Project) select a gcc one instead of g++.

Regards,

To add to what David wrote, you can also use g++ but make sure that the files that you create have the extension ".c" and not ".cpp" this will make sure that even though you chose g++, gcc is invoked instead
