[BUG] gcc not work in localpath, clang is working in localpath
Closed this issue · 8 comments
I've always used clang, so I don't know if the problem is a bug in the extension or vscode. A friend asked me to create an environment to use visual studio code configured with gcc to run without him needing to install gcc and visual studio code on his machine.
So I took the project I had with CLANG and just changed the executables to gcc and gdb and my return is always 1 and gcc doesn't seem to be working, follow in detail the configurations with clang working and gcc not working.

Have you verified that your GCC works in general?
What happens if you execute this by hand in the CMD?

Hello 2023

What I noticed is that if I go to where GCC is using CMD, PS, ZSH (mysys2) it does not create an output, it compiles because it does not display any error, but it does not produce an output, if it is already executed while it is Inside its directory, when executed, it produces output.
That's very strange. I'm using Windows 11
Note, Clang works every way I've tried.
[UPDATED] I was sleeping through the keyboard and keyboard and keyboard and I ended up closing it and reopening it.
Sorry i dont really get your last comment.
So it works for absolute paths but not for relatives?
Ok, I apologize, I was in a hurry because I'm still studying at university, there are times when it's stressful.
had accidentally fallen asleep sitting in front of the computer and typing on keyboard in closing the issue
That's right, if I use direct or relative paths, it doesn't work, but if I open the windows shell CMD, PwerSehll, or any other and use the CD command in the directory where gcc is, it produces an output, does the build.
The strange thing is that otherwise it doesn't display any message
Now I'm reviewing it and what I wrote was really confusing. in the previous comment
Okay, then please only use absolute paths.
