I've been trying to solve this problem with eclipse when trying to run a c++ project. I don't exactly know why it started saying that the program file does not exist because the exact same project was working fine before. All I did was add some more code and ever since, I could not build this project, I already tried changing the launch configuration in the project properties but it didn't really do anything. Has anyone encountered this problem, and if you did is there any way to solve it?
...Also it says that the "Program 'g++' was not found in path", which I don't even know why it's even looking for it in that path since I specified where the mingw64 HOME was, but if I create a new project or run an old project it builds and runs fine without any problems...

Go to Properties for your project, select Run/Debug Setttings, select "Edit",
Notice text box C/C++ application is empty, fill it by selecting "Search Project" in your debug directory for your .exe file
Hope this helps !

I tried to run C++ in Eclipse Mars but it failed. It is showing "Launch failed. Binary not found" .It is also showing another fatal error "sdkddkver.h: No such file or directory". I pasted a snapshot so that you can see these. I have installed MinGw and added the "C:/MinGW/bin" to windows path. The MinGW packages which are added, can be seen in the left on the snapshot. Appreciate any help. I have seen, lot of similar posts, but nothing helped.
I further explored the process mentioned by ali. I clicked Project -> Build Project. And I got following error message, which came before also. I fear this may due to this missing file "sdkddkver.h". Related to this missing file "sdkddkver.h" I saw lot of earlier posts also, but not pertaining to this specific problem. Does anybody know about this file? How to get this and will that solve the problem or not.
You must build an object file before you can compile it. So if you don't “BUILD” your file, then it will not be able to link and load that object file, and hence it does not have the required binary numbers to execute.
So basically right click on the Project -> Build Project -> Run As Local C/C++ Application should do the trick
I did look up on the Internet to find the solution for my problems, unfortunately all advices didn't seem to help so perhaps you will be more helpful in my case.
I did set up my Eclipse IDE with MinGW,
I did set up my Windows' environment variables right, for example:
added C:\Program Files\eclipse; C:\MinGW\bin;C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin
and somehow managed to create project with .cpp file that actually worked, at the beggining I build this file and than run it with these simple icons. Somehow, it compiled without errors and output the right results.
I hoped that it would remain perfect for eternity, but somehow today while dealing with new c++ project I have encountered the following problems.
I build new C++ project, by clicking:
File -> New -> C++ Project -> marking executable project Hello World Project -> by default I set up to use MinGW toolchain (nothing has changed since the moment it worked perfectly smooth) -> name project and start work.
Building project looks ok, I get no errors whatsover. But when I try to run it the console window is completely blank - with popping info: Nothing to build for [project name].
I really hope that once I've made some project actually work all changes will remain untouched and that I will not have to fiddle around once again with all these settings.
I did not change anything at all and now it doesn't work...
Right click on project -> Properties -> C/C++ Build -> Environment -> all variables are set.
Toolchain set to MinGW which has worked so well.
And yet I can't run this executable program, this IDE is really starting to drive me crazy.
Any idea what might have happened over the last magical six hours when suddenly Eclipse refuse to work properly again ?
Try to right click the eclipse project and click refresh. An item should appear under executables. If an item appears you should be able to run it from inside eclipse (not sure how though, maybe by double clicking or from the right click menu) or by using the command promt. To run it through the command prompt, using cd command browse to the folder where the executable file resides (somewhere inside the project folder inside your workspace folder) and run it by typing the name of the executable (fx hello.exe or just hello).
I try to program some stuff in c++ with eclipse, but I have slight difficulties.
When I create a new Project compiling and making works fine but when I try to run the Application I get the following error message:
"Launch failed. Binary not found"
So what I found out by using google is this workaround:
-right-click on the projekt in the projekt explorer
-select "run as" and then "run configurations"
-expand "c/c++ application" in the navbar on the left
-and in the main tab of the project select "browse"
-navigate to folder "debug" and select the .exe
after I do that, running works fine but I have to do it again every time I create a new Project, is there a way to automate this process?
And what I also noticed: I don't have a "binaries" folder in my projects in the project explorer, maybe its related to that, but I really don't know.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
Tim

There will only be a Binaries folder if the build was successful. You will have to manually build to get a binary in order for the Binaries folder to appear. Likewise, if you clean (remove) your build folder then Binaries will disappear.
I would guess that Eclipse cannot find your binary "out-of-the-box" because you are using external tools to manage the build process; that is, if you have a custom makefile project (or another type of project that uses another tool to handle the building) then Eclipse will not be able to provide a default run configuration because it does not "know" where the binary is or even which binary to run if there are multiple. Thus, you have to set up the Run Configuration as you are doing now.
If you create a project and let Eclipse do the building, then Eclipse can find the binaries automatically. For example, simply create an "Empty C++ Project" under "Executable". Write some hello world code. Click build. Then click run. Eclipse launches the binary because it is managing the build process and thus "knows about" where the binary ends up.
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
as seen here stackoverflow.com/questions/9407430, answer number 3 or 4
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.
I have already answered this for other question see the link Launch Failed Binary not found Eclipse for C in Windows at 10th number.
I'm trying to use the cpu of bochs in my graduate course project. I want to create a project of it in eclipse so I can modify it and compile it and also see the errors ...
I have the source code and I use visual studio's nmake to build, compile it. but the problem is that it doesn't report me the errors and the only way to know the error happens or not is to wait until nmake ends and see if the .exe file is created or not. after that the process of finding errors is a bad headache.
so I'm trying to use ubuntu OS and use eclipse. anyone knows how to create a project for bochs in this?
Also the more important thing is a tutorial that I can learn bochs cpu codes. because the official site's tutorial has no use.
haha,
I found it myself.
just go to bochs official site and download the source code for linux.
extract the zip file somewhere.
open a terminal and go to the extracted folder.
type:
./configure
this will check your system and set the values for the #define arguments in a file called makefile.
now open eclipse.(I assume that you have the c/c++ CDT). FILE>NEW PROJECT
In the opened dialogue open c/c++ tree, and select "Makefile project with existing code" and click next. next put a name for your project and in the "existing code location" browse the extracted folder. next select CROSS GCC as toolchain. then click finish.
there you go. now build the project and it should work.
remember that for running project you must give bochs command line arguments which is available in eclipse and you can find out how with a search in forums.
I'm receiving the above errors on all my C++ projects on Netbeans. I also receive cannot find errors for anything else I try to include. Here's what it says when I hold control and hover over it: http://imgur.com/bBF2xuB. One of the projects actually builds and runs just fine, but all the rest fail either with "build failed, exit value 2" or the run fails with "run failed, exit value 127". I have absolutely no idea how to fix this and everything I've looked up to try to solve this hasn't helped. This wasn't a problem a few months ago when I was using Netbeans, and I'm not sure why the problem spontaneously popped up.
I just freshly installed Netbeans 8.0 and the latest cygwin version to try to fix this, but to no avail. I'm running Windows 7.
Please help, it would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT
The highlighted red errors in the attached photo are files/folders that do not actually exist. Could this be the problem, and if so, how can I go about fixing it?
EDIT 2
I deleted or changed some of the non-existent file/folder paths in the code assistance tab under the C/C++ tab under the options, this seems to have made some of the errors in the editor go away, but I still cannot build the project (and the errors haven't disappeared on this specific project), and the projects that I created in the past that used to work just fine are building, but I'm still receiving "RUN FAILED exit value 127".
I just had the same experience with Netbeans (8.0.2) not being able to find includes ("Cannot find include file") on Linux.
I had to do the following:
In the "Build Tools" tab under "C/C++" settings, click "Restore Defaults" to let it rescan for the tools, after which it picked up the paths to all the executables. Select the newly configured toolset as default and/or delete the old one to reduce confusion.
Under "Code Assistance", make sure the correct tool collection is selected, then click "Reset Settings" and "Apply". This populated all the necessary paths.
In my project settings, made sure I was using the right (newly discovered) tool collection.
After this, all the includes were picked up correctly and errors disappeared from the source checking.
I also had this problem (Cannot find include file iostream) in NetBeans IDE 8.1. I solved as follows:
Project properties -> Build -> C++ Compiler -> Basic Options -> C++ Standard -> C++98 or C++11 or C++14
