Setting problems

[submarine]

Hi, I just download a codelite, try to start a helloworld, but when I run the helloworld.c file, i can't see the window to show the helloworld , should I install a gcc compiler first? How to set it?

Yes, codelite does not come bundled with gcc compiler. I am guessing that you are on Winodws, so I would suggest to download MinGW (g++/gcc/gdb) from here:

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wxpack ... e?download
Make sure you install it in directory without spaces (e.g. C:\MinGW is a good location)

Once installed, start codelite again, go to 'Settings -> Environment Variables...'

in the dialog that opens, click on the 'New...' button, a new small dialog will open
in the 'Variable Name' field, type:

Code: Select all

PATH

in the 'Variable Value' field, type:

Code: Select all

$(PATH);C:\MinGW\bin

Click OK and close the environment variable dialog. Try to compile hello world sample again.
