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

For best explaination pls look at img.
Being new i installed VS Code (added path), installed MinGW minimalist, applied changed by marking everything in installation ,copied the path in environment variable, interestingly i can't open gcc by clicking on it. if i go to Windows powershell and try to run (in admin mode) it gives fatal error but i type ar then it opens.if i type C:\MinGW\bin then it doesn't recognizes it. Upon removing the path of gcc, it doesn't shows fatal error when i type it's path and not recongnizable when i type gcc.Is there a way to fix it? i watch tutorials but they didn't help even tho i followed them step by step.Some of my environment variable were different from the varibale excluding C:MinGW\bin.BTW pls tell ans in ez way because i just installed C as my 1st programming language.
Here are the correct steps:
add C:\MinGW\bin to the PATH environment variable
open a new Powershell or Command Prompt (not an existing one, and don't Run As Administrator) and type gcc --version)
open VSCode and make sure the compiler is configured properly, see also: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/cpp/config-mingw
MinGW is old, I recommend using newer MinGW-w64 which is much more up to date and support both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows. You can get a standalone version from https://winlibs.com/
I just downloaded and installed Mingw. I also setup the system environment variables for C:\MinGW\bin and C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin. I wanted to test to see if I had installed it correctly (it seemed to be since running gcc --version worked), so I wrote hellow world in c and tried to compile with gcc main.c -o hello_world.exe. However I got the error:
"The code execution cannot proceed because libewinpthread-1.dll" was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem."
I have tired reinstalling it and restarting my computer. I have also tried to see if this problem has occurred to others, and while there are a few places it is mentioned, I can't seem to find a solution mentioned. I have thought about trying to download the dll separately, but if I remember correctly, downloading dlls is a big no no.
Awhile ago I installed mingw though chocolatey and it seemed to be working. I have deleted that download from my computer and removed the paths, since I wanted to try to install it the normal way. Could this be part of the error?
Any ideas what the issue could be? Thanks!
You have built an .exe file that depends on libwinpthread-1.dll.
Solutions to make sure the .exe can run:
Add the MinGW bin path to your PATH so libwinpthread-1.dll - this would only fix it for your own system so I wouldn't recommend this if you want to use the .exe file on other systems.
Copy libwinpthread-1.dll from MinGW in the same folder as your .exe file. This is generally needed for any shared dependancy library your .exe is linked against.
Build a static .exe (--static linker flag) to avoid the shared (.dll) dependancy.
Yes! probably is an error, cause MinGW is a bit stinky when it comes to DLLs
Here are some things you have to check:
Make sure the variable helding the location of MinGW is named "path"
and its pointing at: C:\MinGW64\bin
I attempted the solution found here which said to add MingW to the system path, but this did not work. I installed MingW alongside Codeblocks, and compiling works just fine. However, I have had issues with the the make command, which has led me to trying to see if there is issues with my compiler. Running gcc.exe in CMD gave the error that libwinpthread-1.dll was missing, but it clearly isn't. How can I get my computer to recognize it?
I solved the same problem on my codeblocks going to settings → compiler, choosing "Searching directories" and then choosing "linker" tab below and adding the following path:
C:\Program Files\CodeBlocks\MinGW\x86_64-w64-mingw32\lib
…(or your MingW installation). All libraries are linked statically.
CodeBlocks version 20.03
I am using Mac OS X 10.8 with Xcode. I have installed the jansson library, with the following commands:
./configure
make
make check
sudo make install
Everything went fine and the library installed correctly. I have created a smple .c file with a text editor and tried to include the <jansson.h> file. I builded everything and it gave no errors, meaning that the library is installed on my system.
Now, Xcode doesn't find the library at all, saying that <jansson.h> is not found. I have tried to restart my Mac, but nothing happens. If anyone knows a possible solution, I will be grateful. Thanks!
I resolved the issue, by going under Build phases, and searching for HEADER_SEARCH_PATH. Then I changed the search path label with /usr/local/include, where the library was installed.
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.
See <URL:http://www.mingw.org/bugs.shtml> for instructions.
Execution terminated
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. :)
