problem compiling with Eclipse for linux
Please support our C++ advertiser: Intel Parallel Studio Home
 |
hi,
I'm beginning to learn how to program in C++ and though it is teached in my university, it seems noone cares about Linux users, so no one there can help me here (though I think the problem has nothing to do with my OS, but with the version of the program I use: eclipe)
the problem is the following:

when I try to run this, this new window pops up and I've filled the necessary camps as far as I could, but I don't know what to put where it says "C/C++ Application:"

when I click "Search Project" that right side window pops up empty... what am I doing wrong?
thanks in advance,
onemanclapping
PS: sorry for the bad english, I'm portuguese

I have not used eclipse, so I don't know exactly what steps are needed. But I don't think there is any problem with your eclipse version. Looks like you are adding the source file to the
Try right clicking on the project name and see if there is an option like
.settings folder. Also the file does not have the extension of a C++ source file. Try right clicking on the project name and see if there is an option like
add source file . If there isn't, try reading the manual of eclipse. Doesn't matter which OS you use, the basic steps should be the same. So even the Windows Manual for eclipse would do. •

I changed the extension to "cpp", it that right? if it is, that's not the problem either
do you know another application to program, compile and run C++ programs under linux?

code::blocks is a good IDE
If you just want to compile a program
use the g++ compiler
on the command line:
g++ myprog.cpp -o myprog
this will compile myprog.cpp source into myprog executable.
To run it ;
./myprog
If you just want to compile a program
use the g++ compiler
on the command line:
g++ myprog.cpp -o myprog
this will compile myprog.cpp source into myprog executable.
To run it ;
./myprog

Create a source folder. File->New->Source folder. Call it src and save your file there.
Then when that windows comes up when you try to run your program, browse to your debug folder and select the program.

I'd really prefer a program that would compile itself as it would be very boring to keep repeating that code line (g++ myprog.cpp -o myprog)...
atum.cpp is a source file, not an executable file. You should locate the program you have compiled i.e. the executable file.
