New programmer: Build issue

[akii]

Hello
I am new to programming as well as codelite. I installed version6.0, complier MinGW (Codelite-4.8.1) and GNU gdb debugger .

I tried building the simplest possible program as shown below but it shows one error

Code: Select all

#include <iostream>
int main()
{
	cout<<"hello";
	return 0
}

The build output is as follows:

Code: Select all

C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe /c "mingw32-make -e -f  Makefile"
----------Building project:[ test - Debug ]----------
mingw32-make[1]: Entering directory 'C:/Users/iswerya/Documents/codelite/test'
/usr/bin/sh: Hewlett-Packardbing++.exe: command not found
mingw32-make[1]: *** [Debug/main.cpp.o.d] Error 127
test.mk:96: recipe for target 'Debug/main.cpp.o.d' failed
mingw32-make[1]: Leaving directory 'C:/Users/iswerya/Documents/codelite/test'
mingw32-make: *** [All] Error 2
Makefile:4: recipe for target 'All' failed
1 errors, 0 warnings

Kindly guide me.

You are having the classic problem where there is another g++ on your system (with sh.exe) to fix this, you need to "tell" make to ignore the sh.exe, to do this:

Settings -> Build Settings -> Compilers -> <Your Compiler Name> -> Tools -> MAKE

Your current value is set to:

Code: Select all

mingw32-make -e

Change it to:

Code: Select all

mingw32-make -e SHELL=cmd.exe

Thank you. I did as you said. but it still shows erroe

C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe /c "mingw32-make -e SHELL=cmd.exe -e -f Makefile"
"----------Building project:[ test - Debug ]----------"
mingw32-make[1]: Entering directory 'C:/Users/iswerya/Documents/codelite/test'
The system cannot find the path specified.
mingw32-make[1]: *** [Debug/main.cpp.o.d] Error 1
mingw32-make: *** [All] Error 2
test.mk:96: recipe for target 'Debug/main.cpp.o.d' failed
mingw32-make[1]: Leaving directory 'C:/Users/iswerya/Documents/codelite/test'
Makefile:4: recipe for target 'All' failed
1 errors, 0 warnings

I have attached the screenshot of the change that you asked me to make. Please comment.

Try changing the paths to Windows style paths? (i.e. with volume etc )

So this:

Code: Select all

\Hewlett-Packard\bin\g++.exe

Will become something like:

Code: Select all

C:\Hewlett-Packard\bin\g++.exe

When i try to change it to
C:\Hewlett-Packard\bin\g++.exe

It goes back to
\Hewlett-Packard\bin\g++.exe
as soon as i change it.

This is fixed in git head. Can you build a new windows version from git?

Umm I am very new to programming.I do not even understand the terms that you used. Is there any link or manual that I can follow?

I will upload a new installer and will link it here.

Stay tuned

Try using this codelite:

http://codelite.org/downloads/tmp/codel ... w4.8.1.exe

Once downloaded and installed, let codelite rescan your compilers:

Settings->Build Settings->Compilers->Add Compilers->Scan computer for installed compilers
Accept the suggestions
