So I am new to CDT (even though I have worked with C and Eclipse Java before), and seem to be getting the error as shown in the picture below:
Now, when I check the Run Configurations, the application field of the debug applicaiton seems to be empty, as shown below:
Finally, when I check the actual physical location of where the debug executable should be, the folder seems to be empty, even though I am going through the build process.
Does anyone know why this problem is being caused, and why exactly eclipse isn't building/compiling my executable?
NOTE : I am currently using Eclipse Luna.
It seems that your program doesn't compile correctly, maybe because you have a build error at the compiler level...
Try to press CTRL+B and see if in the problems section you get some errors of the compiler .
If you are familiar with developing Java in Eclipse, then you might have hit a problem that the default setting for Java is to continuously build. However for CDT you need to tell Eclipse to build the project. This can be done by pressing CTRL+B to build all projects in the workspace, or right-clicking on the desired project and selecting Build Project.
Once you have the first build of your project, future builds can be completed automatically by using the Build (if required) before launching option in Window | Preferences | Run/Debug | Launching as shown in this screenshot:
Once you do the first build and set up your launch configuration. Then the edit/debug cycle becomes very efficient, simply code and hit Run or Debug button when ready.

I have been learning C for a month now and I've been using VScode on mac to do it. I followed the following video(i.e by installing homebrew and mingw and installing extentions in VScode) and it ran exactly as shown in the video.
video---->https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhGnYWplLVo i.e it automatically opened a .json file after debugging.
I went to my class in the morning and it ran fine, but when I reached home and tried to run a program, it did not compile.
I used to f5(shortcut to debug) and a drop down menu popped which had GDB/LLDB and Microsoft. I used to click the GDB and it opened a .json file. I then ran the program and it would normally run in the terminal. But this time, there was a second popup after clicking GDB:-
-C/C++:gcc build and debug active file prelaunchTask C/C++:gcc build active file Detected task
-after clicking this option the following would appear and had to be closed several times one after another. This had never happened before::-
Developer tools access
And after doing this the following would be shown in vscode, and the .json file would not open:--
Debuggee TargetArchitecture not detected
The only thing I did after my class was download epic games launcher and a game from there.
Can anyone help me so that it can work again like it used to(as shown in video mentioned above).
Thanks a lot, this has been stressing me out a lot.
I have not seen any thread talk about this specific error so here is the problem:
I have set up a C project in Clion and I configured in Setting -> Build,Execution,Deployment -> Toolchains a file usr/bin/make as the Make.
I could run my code yesterday but today, i get the warning in a red window popping-up: Error running 'makefile': Cannot build 'makefile' when I try to run my code.
What could possibly cause this?
It seems like you’re trying to run the makefile instead of the program that is built by it.
Have you tried doing a build first? Or maybe you should try to clean the project too.
Have a look a the blog post of JetBrains https://blog.jetbrains.com/clion/2020/06/makefile-projects-in-clion/. There’s a gif that shows how to clean the project. Hope this helps, if not maybe post your makefile so we can check if it has any errors.
I just installed gcc and Eclipse C/C++ IDE but I'm having trouble using it.
I keep getting these errors. Anyone got ideas on how to fix this?
Your project seems to be one for making a windows application.
The code in your project does not match that, it is the simple code for a console application.
Create a new project, choose "Console Application" and use the same code.
Then you should be able to successfully build your program before you execute it (credits to Some programmer dude, for spotting the "build failed is not run time error").
I just installed Eclipse and I get this error whenever I hit the button run: Launched Failed.Binary not found.
What should I do? Please if you can explain step by step.
Thank you.
Start eclipse the same as you would any other program,
generate a 'project'.
add files to the project,
then clicking run will trigger a compile of all the files, which creates the object files. then a link of all the object files (and needed libraries) to produce an executable, then it tries to run that executable.
I.E. run does nothing useful until the project is fully created and will have plenty of failures until the compiles have no errors and the link has no errors
My code runs a previous version of itself, so even though i completely remove all the code, it still runs the old one. I've read a few other posts regarding this problem, and tried it out. My temporary solution is to build the project before running it, but that is kinda stupid. the .exe file is in the Release folder, and my Debug folder dissapeared after the Clean.
How do I stop needing to build the project before everytime I need to run it?
I found out there's a button called auto build in the Launch Configuration properties window. So it build everytime I run it.
