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.
