I just purchased the book "C++ Programming for Dummies" and have downloaded code blocks but every time I go to "Build" the program, the Build Log says "HelloWorld - Debug" uses an invalid compiler. Skiping...
I'm pretty confused right about now and it doesn't say anything about that happening in the book.
@gasto5 I honestly have no clue, the Code::Blocks CD came with the book, so I just slipped in the CD and went through the whole install wizard stuff and whatnot until I could finally start programming.
@newtele I went to the apple website and created a developer's account (completely free and you don't have to receive annoying e-mails). From there you have the choice between xcode 3.2.6 and xcode 4.0. I downloaded 3.2.6 because it is free, 4.0 might also be free, but I haven't checked. And there you go, just try to "build" your program again and message me if you have any more problems or if this didn't solve your problem.
@AlexsiMAC headers are not translated into machine code. Headers should only contain declarations of functions, types and variables , but shouldn´t be executable code. That´s what the .c source file is for. If you don´t know how to use a header perhaps you can wait in this series there are more advanced subjects including the usage of headers.
you sound like a damn computer

@Abolisher45 How did you install Code::Blocks, with or without the MinGW package?

@Abolisher45 That's exactly what's happening to me! Did you end up figuring it out?
