Can I Compile and debug (run) single c++ file.

[asrat]

Hello,
I'm learning C++ out of a book and using CodeLite.
In order to follow the book's exercises, I need to make multiple .cpp files with the main() function inside them.(Inside individual Cpp file).
Is there any way I can compile/debug my programs without making a new project every single time?

Or

if I could just have everything inside a single project where I could compile whichever individual file I wanted and see it run.

You can define external tool that compiles the currently active editor.
Search the forum for this.


A good place to start is from the menu: plugins -> extrenal tools
