This is picture of my screen: This error shows up when I enter #include <stdio.h>to begin my program. I'm not sure how to fix this. Every file in Visual Studio Code is now having this issue.
I use gcc. gcc -o outputname filename.c and using C/C++ IntelliSense, debugging, and code browsing extension by Microsoft.
As you didn't explain the question well.
I think that there is a macro in the build options that is not defined so it gets inserted into the build command as a blank string. Does your project use some macros in the build options maybe something for 55x CSL directory?
If so make sure to define these macros on the macro tab of the build options dialog.
Various things may contribute to this error:
unclosed quotes in preprocessor definitions, macros or even c_cpp_properties.json
file encoding
the VS Code cpp extension
It has come and gone in my c/c++ development, and I don't know if anything specific I've done fixes it or if just restarting VS Code is the solution.
Most recently, I
changed the encoding of all files from UTF-8 to ANSI (in case there were any hidden unicode characters in the file, which happens with copy & paste sometimes)
restarted VS Code
it then complained that the c/c++ extension wasn't installed (it was?) and so I installed it again, and the error is gone.
I had the same issue. I just uninstalled and reinstalled the c/c++ extension and it was back to normal
I ran into the same problem this morning. IntelliSense was at fault.
Only solution I quickly had found for me was to hard-delete C++ IntelliSense extension. Plain uninstall did not help.
You can remove IntelliSense Extension this way:
close all instances of Visual Studio Code,
navigate to folder %USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions
delete a folder/folders (incl. subfolders) ms-vscode.cpptools*
start Visual Studio Code again and install fresh IntelliSense extension.
NOTE: you may lose your IntelliSense custom settings!

I've installed Clion and MinGW, however in setting for Clion I get a message saying that C Compiler is not found. As shown here:
Although I believe I've installed all variations of the gcc package as shown:
It also appears I'm missing gcc.exe:
Anyone know what I'm missing and how to correct this error?
I found the solution. It appears that it wasn't actually downloading and extracting the exe properly.
To fix it I clicked on the general tab for the package I wanted in the package manager, then had to type the Package URL into my browser (can't copy it for some reason). That downloaded the folders, so I just extracted them and put them into their respective directories and Clion now detects the compiler!
The link for my version was https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW/Base/gcc/Version4/gcc-4.9.3-1/gcc-core-4.9.3-1-mingw32-bin.tar.xz/download?use_mirror=iweb
In particular, #include "sqlite3.h" gives an error [Clang Intellisense] Error: 'sqlite3.h' file not found in Visual Studio.
Everything works fine when compiling/running, but the intellisense errors are annoying.
I've installed sqlite3-dev and ran updates/upgrades.
I see sqlite3.h in the usr/include directory which is included in the list of intellisense directories under project properties.
sqlite3 is included in the Library names (Makefile settings -> Config settings)
Is my path going to the wrong library or am I just missing something simple? I don't see the sqlite.c file in there and looking the the .h file, I don't see the functions I am using (from an example) like SQLITE_OK or sqlite3_free.
Again, everything works, it's just the intellisense that doesn't work. At least from what I can tell so far.
Oh, and the code is running on raspbian if that matters.
Yes, I experience the same the first time I open the solution. But I managed to get rid of it by opening one of the included header files and a clean Rebuild.
my VS version is 2015
I just installed Dev C++ and I am learning C programming.
the code i used was
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("Hello world");
getch();
}
I saved it as a .c file. When I compile it works fine, but when I compile and run it says source file not compiled. So I googled buncha things and came across this video on youtube which shows you how to fix it. I also saw other forums on google which suggest the same thing... However, after doing whats asked, Now I can't even compile my code. I get this error
Compiler: Default compiler
Executing C:\Dev-Cpp\bin\gcc.exe...
C:\Dev-Cpp\bin\gcc.exe "C:\Users\ubaid\Documents\C\Untitled1.c" -o "C:\Users\ubaid\Documents\C\Untitled1.exe" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include" -L"C:\Dev-Cpp\lib"
gcc.exe: Internal error: Aborted (program collect2)
Please submit a full bug report.

I have also used what is asked on this link, and still no luck..

I am using windows 8
I was having this issue and fixed it by going to:
C:\Dev-Cpp\libexec\gcc\mingw32\3.4.2
, then deleting collect2.exe
Install new version of Dev c++. It works fine in Windows 8. It also supports 64 bit version.
Download link is http://sourceforge.net/projects/orwelldevcpp/ .
I guess you're using windows 7 with the Orwell Dev CPP
This version of Dev CPP is good for windows 8 only. However on Windows 7 you need the older version of it which is devcpp-4.9.9.2_setup.exe
Download it from the link and use it.
(Don't forget to uninstall any other version already installed on your pc)
Also note that the older version does not work with windows 8.
This maybe because the c compiler is designed to work in linux.I had this problem too and to fix it go to tools and select compiler options.In the box click on programs
Now you will see a tab with gcc and make and the respective path to it.Edit the gcc and make path to use mingw32-c++.exe and mingw32-make.exe respectively.Now it will work.
The reason was that you were using compilers built for linux.
You can always try doing it manually from the command prompt. Navigate to the path of the file and type:
gcc filename.c -o filename
I found a solution. Please follow the following steps:
Right Click the My comp. Icon
Click Advanced Setting.
CLick Environment Variable. On the top part of Environment Variable Click New
Set Variable name as: PATH then
Set Variable Value as: (" the location of g++ .exe" )
For ex. C:\Program Files (x86)\Dev-Cpp\MinGW64\bin
Click OK
This error occurred because your settings are not correct.
For example I receive
cannot open output file Project1.exe: Permission denied
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
mingw32-make.exe: *** [Project1.exe] Error 1
Because I have no permission to write on my exe file.
After some investigation, and with Dr.Topaz's help, I have learned that you will want to confirm that the program set for g++ in the Compiler Options really does compile the source code. In my case, the C:\Dev-Cpp\bin\g++.exe program did not create an exe, but the C:\Dev-Cpp\bin\c++.exe program did. Either program appears to be intended to take the same arguments and options as GNU g++. I would love to find an actual doc on the Dev-C++ compiler programs, but I have not so far.
You can test the compiler program with a simple example like this:
C:\Dev-Cpp\bin\c++.exe hello.cpp -o hello.exe
Currently in 2021, the Dev-C++ site invites you to download either original Dev-C++ or a newer fork by a group named Embarcadero.
I decided to try the Embarcadero version and the experience was slightly better. The UI is still a tad dated, but the g++.exe program it came with was able to compile programs without issue. Again, take note of where the program is being installed, but in my case, the Embarcadero compiler programs were in C:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\Dev-Cpp\TDM-GCC-64\bin.
Both original Dev-C++ and Embarcadero come with mingw-32 versions of the compiler programs that from what I see do work in a Git Bash console, with slight differences such as not recognizing a default locale when using the command std::cout.imbue(std::locale("")).
I faced this similar error, and none of the solutions worked.
so I tried to download the latest version from here, https://www.bloodshed.net/
I rerun the program.
and everything is now working correctly.
I was facing the same issue as described above.
It can be resolved by creating a new project and creating a new file in that project.
Save the file and then try to build and run.
Hope that helps. :)
Gnuplot experts or anyone who is willing to help me - I have explained what I have done in very simple words and in a detailed manner. Thanks for your time and patience in advance.
My aim is to develop a new feature in Gnuplot by adding a new terminal to it. I did the following steps in the order mentioned
I formatted my system and reinstalled Windows 7. (no antivirus installed)
Installed Visual Studio 2008
Downloaded the source code of Gnuplot
Now, am supposed to set up the compiling environment for Gnuplot in Windows. So, I did the following steps as per the instructions in "README" and "INSTALL" files in the source code package.
Opened up Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt
changed directory to the "src" folder in the source code
Then I ran the nmake tool (the make tool meant for Visual Studio) using the file makefile.nt (which is for Windows)
nmake -f C:\Users.........\config\makefile.nt
It compiled successfully and gave the wgnuplot.exe and gnuplot.exe files as output. Also the manifest files were created. (Note: I have not changed any piece of code from the original source code package)
When I tried to open the exe file generated from the compilation, it threw me this error
The program can't start because MSVCR90.DLL is missing from your computer. Try re-installing the program to fix this problem.
This MSVCR90.dll should be installed already when Visual Studio was installed. I checked the C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft.vc90... folder and the MSVCR90.DLL was alread there. Then, I tried 2 things to solve this -
Anything to do with PATH variable? I made the PATH variable point to that directory. It threw me a new error that says
Microsoft Visual C++ Library. Run time error. R6034. Here is the detailed picture of the error
So, I reset my path variable back to the old value and followed the steps in THIS FORUM POST to fix the missing dll problem by copying the dll files to the C:\Windows\system32 folder. Again it threw me the same run time error
AM STUCK AT THIS POINT. Please advise me on how to rectify this
problem. THANKS A MILLION :) Advance thanks to you :)
Is there any reason you need to use VS2008?
If not I'd recommend to use the current VC release.
Your problem looks like some sort of version mismatch/incompablilty issue to me ...
I know a question like this was already asked, but the situation is a little different, and all the answers on that problem didn't work for me.
I'm trying to compile some C code in VS2008 and it doesn't create an exe. Also, when I try to run it with f5, I get:
This application has failed to start
because MSVCR90.DLL was not found.
I did some googling and it said that this was because my c++ redistributable package wasnt installed. So I installed that, restarted everything and tried again. But alas, I still get the same error. Does anyone have any clue how to fix this?
It sounds like either a problem with your VS2008 installation, or something wrong with your DLL search path. MSVCR90.DLL is installed when you install VS2008, you shouldn't have to install any additional redistributable packages.
First I would check your PATH environment variable and make sure there is no gobbledydook in it that will break some of the entries, and if you don't find a problem there, then I would uninstall and reinstall Visual Studio.
You could also try searching for MSVCR90.DLL (and other DLLs like it), and move them to your Windows/System32 folder.
If you just want to get going now, another thing you could do is change your project to statically link to the runtime libraries, and then it wont even try to load that DLL. Go to your Project settings, Configuration Properties->C/C++->Code Generation and change Runtime Library from Multi-Threaded DLL to just Multi-Threaded (or any of the options that doesn't end with DLL).
Here are some things to check for your configuration of the project- under the general tab:
.1 Configuration type - exe in your case.
.2 Use of MFC: if this is an MFC application it might be more portable if you do: Use MFC in a static library.
.3 Use of ATL - if not using atl (or not sure) say Not using ATL.
.4 Under C/C++ -> Runtime Library: Say Multi-threaded Debug (for debug version) or Multi-Threaded (for release version).
If you are getting specific linker errors that say something is already defined:
This means that you have some parts of your app (separate libs being linked to your exe) that are built with different runtime linking:
You can:
Make sure that these libraries were compiled with the same version of visual studio as your application.
Change those projects to use static runtime: C/C++ -> Code Generation -> Runtime LIbrary: /MT or MTd (same as #4 above)
If you still have some specific errors try telling the linker to ignore certain libraries: Go to Linker->Ignore Specific Library and put in the library that you want to ignore. This is most common for 'libcmt.lib' or 'libcmtd.lib'. It is important also to know that lib ending with 'd' is usually the debug version. If you are creating a release build and you are getting 'already defined in libcmtd.lib' that means that somewhere you are linking a release lib to a debug lib.
if you delete the manifest file associated with you .exe, you will get the same error.
MSVCR90.dll is not installed in system32, but in the side-by-side folder, hence the manifest is required.
I have just been bitten by this and this page got me working again.
The key is to ignore MSVCRT and MSVCR90 libraries for the debug configuration. Set your linker -> Input -> Ignore Specific Library setting to include the following:
MSVCRT
MSVCR90
it is supposedly in the http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=a5c84275-3b97-4ab7-a40d-3802b2af5fc2&displaylang=en visual studio 2008 runtime library. Yes! After installing that, openoffice update works.
If you give the finished exe to someone else they will need to install the latest visual c runtime to run it. This will only work for release build AFAIK. Visual studio should install the required runtime both release and debug into your path. The project probably has an additional dependency accidently set for an incorrect version of the runtime.
See if this page helps.
Go to your Project settings, Configuration Properties->C/C++->Code Generation and change Runtime Library from Multi-Threaded DLL to Multi-Threaded and then try to compile but it won't. Then change it to Multi-Threaded Debug and try to compile ,but it won't again and then you change it back to Multi-Threaded DLL and then it should compile and run.
