Just installed eclipse on my mac cannot run my projects when i build and run i get the following message: launch failed, binary not found.
I've set on project setting \macosx gcc\ and linker\miscellaneus\flags -arch i686
doesnt work, i am pretty stuck.
Hi I ran into a similar problem. I am using the following build :
Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers
Version: Juno Service Release 2
The fix go into Project > Properties > C/C++ Build > Settings > Binary Parsers : Make sure "Mach-O 64 Parser is selected"
This thread helped me out: "Launch Failed. Binary Not Found." Snow Leopard and Eclipse C/C++ IDE issue
"THE PROBLEM: is that GCC 4.2 (the GNU Compiler Collection) that comes with Snow Leopard compiles binaries in 64-bit by default. Unfortunately, the linker that Eclipse uses does not understand 64-bit binaries; it reads 32-bit binaries. There may be other issues here, but in short, they culminate in no binary being generated, at least not one that Eclipse can read, which translates into Eclipse not finding the binaries. Hence the error."
The fix go into Project > Properties > C/C++ Build > Settings > Binary >Parsers : Make sure "Mach-O 64 Parser is selected"
I made sure this was correct, and still recieved an error, so I would say the best solution is to do this step...then, BUILD the project, then press the "play" button and it should work (that is what fixed my problem)
You must build it first, then click run. It will be fine then.
You need to select the proper binary parser so Eclipse can recognize the executable :
Select the project, then
Project->Properties->C/C++ Build->Settings->Binary Parsers
For the mac select Mach-O Parser.
I wish CDT just came with these selected, it’d be a simple plug-n-play setup. If nothing else they could add a hint in the error text.
I had the same issue,
although i changed the parser as above mentioned it didn't work and i got the same error.
In addition, building the project via the menu solved the problem:
Project>Build All
I guess the very first code execution with eclipse makes it necessary to build the code separately before pressing the green run button (as i supposed this at least compiles the code).

Alright, hello guys. I've been using Eclipse Luna for some time now while programming in Java. Recently, due to school work, I decided to download the C/C++ for the eclipse as well. I have installed it and all went well. Then I wrote a simple programme and Eclipse will not run it.
Each time there is a pop up: Launch failed. Binary not found.
Also, Eclipse says there is the following error: Program "make"not found in PATH.
Now, I have tried everything to fix it. I'm using the MinGW. I also downloaded Msys.I added all the necesarry paths into the System enviroment variables and done the same thing in the Eclipse.
I went into the Window -- Preferences -- C/C++ -- New C/C++ project and under Binary Parsers selected the PE Windows Parser. I've tried other things as well, like adding the following line into the eclipse.ini as someone suggested:
-DMINGW_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\MinGW
Nothing seems to be working though and I sadly cannot run even the simplest of programs. Haalp, please.
Kind regards,
George.
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..
http://learntogeek.com/miscellaneous/solved-source-file-not-compiled-error-in-dev-cpp/
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. :)
I am using Eclipse for a C project. I created a new Project by going to New->C project->Executable->Empty Project, Linux gcc toolchain.
When I add a new .c file, I get "program 'g++' not found in path".
How do I get rid of this? I'm not even using C++.
I had similar problem and it is solved by
Installing g++ The GNU C++ complier using ubuntu software centre and
Changing in -
Window -> Preferences -> C/C++ -> Build -> Settings -> Discovery -> CDT GCC Build in Complier Settings [Shared]
From: ${COMMAND} -E -P -v -dD "${INPUTS}"
To : /usr/bin/${COMMAND} -E -P -v -dD "${INPUTS}"
I hope it helps.
For posterity I'm going to post my own solution to this problem. None of the answers above or on related StackOverflow questions helped; most referred to menu entries that didn't exist, and the ones I could try did nothing. I searched other sites as well; there were about 6 different answers repeated many times, and none helped.
Short answer: I blew away the Eclipse install and replaced it. Then it worked. For me at least it wasn't a project or configuration option (at least not one I could get to from the GUI); something in the Eclipse program folder had gotten tweaked and only a new install could repair the problem.
I'm doing Android development using the "ADT" (Android Developer Tools) build of Eclipse. I did something to the configuration that made it start giving the above error (actually two errors, for gcc and g++ both). And I tried plenty of potential solutions (in addition to my own searching for options that might help) with no success.
Thing is, I didn't NEED gcc or g++ in the path. I'm doing Android development, and while both are used in the build process, I'm not using Eclipse to do the builds; I use the Android build system. And the C/C++ Build/Discovery options didn't even give me an option for setting paths for gcc or g++. Other answers I found elsewhere referenced menu entries that don't exist, and most seemed to be about helping people to use the normal C/C++ build within Eclipse, which I didn't need to do.
So I used this opportunity to download the latest ADT package from Google, and then I ran the new one, importing the existing project into a new workspace (just in case the old workspace was corrupted or otherwise part of the problem). No more annoying gcc/g++ error.
I got the same error while I was using "Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers."
Install Eclipse from Ubuntu Software Center and then download and install Eclipse CDT.
To install CDT, open Eclipse -> Help -> Install New Software -> Add -> Archieve...
Then give CDT path to there. That's all
I was able to fix the problem by selecting
project(right click in Project Explorer on your project)->properties->Tool Chain Editor
and switching the Current Toolchain: to Android GCC and Current Buolder: to Android Builder
I also had the same problem. I did not have this error running my program but after a adding, including different Api and paths , probably unintentionally some changes happened in my Path that I could not fix it.
I could fix this error by going to Properties and just restore default for all the Tabs.
I installed Eclipse CDT plugin and also the following packages:
MinSys
MinGW
I have also added paths to their bin in the PATH environment variable. Even then I am unable to compile and run any sample program in Eclipse.
How can I fix this? Thanks for your concern.
I even faced this error and searched a lot to fix. Fortunately, I figured it out myself.
The following are the things you need to make sure they are set:
Window > Preferences > C/C++ > New CDT project wizard > Makefile Project > Binary Parsers
a) Set it to PE Windows Parser if you are on windows.
b) Set it to Cygwin PE Parser if you are using Cygwin
c) Set it to Elf parser if you are using ubuntu
Window > Preferences > C/C++ > Build > Environment
Now click on "select" and select "Path" variable so that you add you path variables in Eclipse.
Now its all done!
All you have to do is write a test program and press Ctrl+B (Build all; there is a button on menu bar) and after that click "Run".
After all the setup is done.Go to eclipse project --> build all or Ctrl + B then eclipse automatically build up the binaries and other stuffs now run your project
Open project properties (Right click on your project, choose Properties on the menu)
C/C++ Build -> Settings
Click on Binary Parsers tab and check PE Windows Parser
In my case
I just save the programme. Press Ctrl + B to build it.
Refresh it.
Then run the programme.
Now you can see this will work fine.
Build
Refresh the project. A new folder named Binaries will appear now in project explorer.
Now Run :)
This problem happened with me. I found the problem that the anti-Virus that I am using considered the binary file as a Trojan and disable the Eclipse from successfully build it. You need to disable the auto-Protection mode, then build the project and run.
Just happened to me and it was a bit silly.
Eclipse didn't show any errors but apparently there was one in the console window.
Double-check that everything's okay there.
Same issue, but on Mac OS on Eclipse Kepler. Fixed with the following configuration
Right click project->properties->C/C++ General->Run/Debug Settings.
I didn't see any launch configuration. So, I created new and input the following entries. Problems is the name of the application :-). Remember that this will only work for Debug project, not for Release or you will have to update the build setting again. Hope this helps.
Select FCC and CDT as your default builder for project. This could help you to solve the problem. By the way, I also encourage you to use Geany program instead. It works ok as well. It's ready to use just only install gcc through MinGW.
I managed to fix this problem by changing the default builder from CDT Internal to GNU Make, by right clicking the project → Properties → C/C++ Build → Tool Chain Editor → Current builder → GNU Make Builder.
Similar problem was faced by me. Once you are within Eclipse IDE try doing the following.
Windows -> Preferences -> C/C++ -> Build -> Environment -> (Add environment variables) -> Click on select all) -> OK
Now, in the same dialog box
New C/C++ project -> Make file project -> Choose Respective Parser* -> Click on Apply and Apply and Close.
Choosing a parser
For Linux - Choose 'Elf Parser' or 'GNU Elf Parser'
For Windows - Choose 'PE Windows Parser'
For Mac OS - Choose 'Mach-o Parser' or 'Mach-o 64 Parser'
Try Building your program and running it. If you still find the Binary Failed Error, Do the following :
Click on Run -> Run Configuration -> C/C++ Application -> click on project_name debug -> click on browse and select your project file -> Press Ok -> below it Browse binary file ( Goto your Eclipse Workspace and select your project file -> You'll find two files 1.Debug 2.Src -> Click on Debug file -> Next click on the file with your project name and Press ok) -> then click apply and press run button.
This should solve the problem.
add third party libraries if in case you are trying to compile OPEN SANKORE project in other projects try to install third party libraries to linux
sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev libjpeg62-dev libtiff4-dev libmng-dev libpng12-dev

I faced the same problem and tried above methods but no use and when I tried to execute in command prompt it gave me "Application not launched properly ...." error and then I tried with code block it gave me "Application not launched properly..." error. Then I downloaded MinGW from
http://www.equation.com/ It started to work
Even I have faced this similar problem and reason behind this problem is pretty simple that compiler failed to get binary file of your written code.
So where is your mistake ?
Answer is there is something wrong in your eclipse installing process. Yes you have not installed it correctly
Here is solution
First thing is no one know where is defect in installing process even you don't know about that.
and here is tutorial "How to install eclipse correctly".
How to Install Eclipse On Windows for C and C++ Correctly
Trust me after watching this you will find your mistake and binary will be found by your compiler.
Watch this whole 8 minute video, this is only solution I found after 7-8 days of hard work.
I had the same Issue of "binary not found" and I had tried all of the solutions but unfortunately nothing worked. I was trying stuff and found out that when I switched my current toolchain(right click on project click settings->c/c++ build->tool chain editor) Cross GCC to Cygwin GCC, clean all build all and guess what ? I am able to run !!
I have install the C/C++ CDT Version of Eclipse.
After making a HelloWorld.c file and get the code in there I get an error of "Launch failed. Binary not found".
I found in google that my Eclipse miss the compiler and I install MinGW on my computer and add the path to env variables (tested it with "gcc -v" in cmd and succeded).
But poorly it get the same Launch Failed error - any ideas, what step I forgot?
Some things to check:
1.) MinGW tools are installed as well. Make sure you have the C compiler and the Make program
2.) Check your Environment variables. Make sure both the compiler and Make are on the path.
3.) Eclipse is a temperamental beast at times, don't lose heart :-)
4.) If you're looking for a good IDE (without care for ideological concerns), might be worth looking at Bloodshed C++ IDE and Visual C++ 2010 express (or whatever they call their free version).
5.) Check the options menu in Eclipse to make sure it's looking at the correct environment variables for finding the Path.
IMHO, the simplest setup for eclipse on windows these days is cygwin - it seems to have been updated more recently than mingw, and works better.
Go to http://www.cygwin.com/, download the installer, select the default directory of c:\cygwin. Select 'All users'.
When it offers a list of packages, select 'gcc', 'binutils' and 'make' under the 'devel' category.
Add c:\cygwin\bin to your windows environment PATH.
Make sure Eclipse knows where to find your gcc compiler. An easier way would be to use EasyEclipse until you are more comfortable with your dev env.
I needed to move from the MinGW gcc to the CygWin gcc - all the C++2011 works and others say it is a better option too. Download the CygWin binaries etc. and then open up Eclipse.
In project properties, C/C++ Build -> Environment and set the CYGWIN_HOME variable. This worked fine for me on Eclipse Kepler Windows 7 (64Bit)
I also put the cygwin bin directory at the front of my Windows PATH variable.

You can try installing wascana. It automatically set up GNU compiler for you on Windows.
