I am trying to install MinGW but it's always failing to install. See the picture for the error message.
Error
Welcome to StackOverflow! My name is Alex and I will try my best to fix this problem of yours.
First, do you have a firewall running? Try running it as an Administrator.
If those didn't work, then I believe it's to the sourgeforge or the network itself. This is probably temporary and will be fixed so I suggest you try it later.
Good luck!
Since I cannot comment, I suppose there is no other way than write an answer. I am having the same issue and it seems to be related to the automated installer, it appears to be broken. Try installing manually (download the zip and manually place in correct directories and set system paths).
I'm a C++ beginner, and I recently ran into an issue where absolutely no changes to a file could be saved.
I attempted uninstalling and reinstalling Code::Blocks into the same folder and uninstalling and reinstalling into a new folder, but the error keeps coming.
The only thing I've done differently since this used to work for me was install Anaconda's SciPy suite. This may be irrelevant of course. The associated questions I could find were primarily for exotic-looking build setups, whereas I'm simply trying to get started with basic programs.
Thanks in advance for any efforts to help!
Create file and projets other than C directory . Do not create in C
They are protected folders.
Try to run CodeBlock with Administrator privilege.
I installed Visual Studio Code 1.1 with the C/C++ extension,
opened my C++ project and tried to use "Go to definition" in vain.
The "Go to definition" is not working at all.
Example, go to definition of a class member:
int i = m_myVar;
(I opened a simpler project with one file and it was working for this one)
In the end, what I want is good indexation of my big project, is there a way to install Intellisense?
I had a the same issue: F12 and Ctrl + Click and Right Click "Go To Definition" wasn't working.
The fix for me was:
Go to Extensions
Click "Disable All Installed Extensions"
Close and Reopen VS Code
Back to Extensions and "Enable All Extensions"
Essentially enable/disable all extensions fixed the issue.
I recently came across this same issue and after trying all of the suggested solutions I could find with no success, I found this article:
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/setup/linux#_visual-studio-code-is-unable-to-watch-for-file-changes-in-this-large-workspace-error-enospc
Basically my project grew too large and VS code was no longer able to track all files, which messed up the "go to definition" functionality.
After following the steps on the link to increase the maximum number of files to be tracked, the issue was resolved.
The correction is pretty simple (tested on Ubuntu 18.04):
Add this line:
fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288
to the end of the file /etc/sysctl.conf
After saving, run the following command:
sudo sysctl -p
Hopefully this will be useful to someone else, this has been bothering me for the last few days.
I had a similar problem except with Python and google searches for solutions kept bringing me back to this post so I figured I'd post my solution here in the hopes that it might help other people.
I was working on a remote cluster through VScode Remote and was getting similar errors to the original question(all 'go to ___' functionality was unavailable and was even getting a 'too large to track' error) and I thought I had to increase the number of watches, which didn't end up helping.
All I needed to do was install a python interpreter on the remote VScode server. This fixed my problem.
I believe vscode 1.1 (well, 1.1.1 actually) + the C++ extension (cpptools) is as much Intellisense as we can get for now.
You should load your big project with the "open folder" function to make vscode know about the other files.
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2016/03/31/cc-extension-for-visual-studio-code/ warns about letting the indexing finish first (red icon in lower right corner during indexing) and mentions the current limitations on the source code parsing.
It wasn't working on my laptop as well after installing a few VSCode extensions. I decided to close and re-open VSCode with administrator permission and suddenly it sorted out.
I have been trying to fix this for a long time. In the end, what worked for me was simply reinstalling VSCode, then installing the latest C/C++ extension (v0.18.1). Then, in your .vscode/c_cpp_properties.json file, under includePath, add your include folder which has all your header files.
I tried the methods mentioned in this thread none of them seemed to work for me. A simple solution that worked for me is that I closed the current workspace and created a new workspace, added the folders which I required(same as the old workspace), and saved the new workspace. Waited for a couple of minutes to index and IntelliSense is able to find definitions now.
I am using VSCode 1.52.1 on Ubuntu 20.04.
In my case, for whatever reason,c_cpp_properties.json has become set to Disabled in ~/.config/Code/User/settings.json.
Manually changing it to Enabled solved the problem.
Fixed mine by UNCHECKING C_Cpp > Default > Limit Symbols To Included Headers
Your mileage may vary. Good luck!
Have you saved your workspace? Or did you just open a folder with File->Open Folder? This question already has many answers, but none of them address this case, which was my issue.
The question is not specific enough for me to know if you are having the exact same symptoms as my case.
If:
You have not saved your workspace. vscode doesn't say "(workspace)" at the top of the window.
None of the goto functions are working, but instead report: "No ___ found for ____"
The tag parser database icon in the bottom right is always there but only reports "Parsing open files", rather than telling you how many files have been parsed.
Then:
Try saving your workspace.
If you have multiple versions of a language on your PC, specify the exact language you are using in the VScode(in my case, I am using Python, so I must specify the version to the python Interpreter in VS Code)
If you could not do it whatsoever, then uninstall all the other versions that you don't use and then if you go to VS Code, it will ask the version to be used, and you would have only one version, so when you select the version, the "Go To Definition" will be activated.
I was having a similar issue with java on Ubuntu 20.04 using OpenJDK version 11 (openjdk-11-jdk in apt). At first I didn't have the JRE installed, so I installed it and it still didn't work.
Afterwards, I went to the CTRL + SHIFT + P menu and then to Java: Configure Java Runtime, there I saw in the Java Tooling Runtime tab that /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64 was selected, changed it to /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.11.0-openjdk-amd64 just to see if it would work, and after a restart it did. I'm not sure why this is, but I hope it may help somone else.
For python ensure your code analysis settings are correct. In my case the languageServer was accidentally set to 'None'. Reverting it to 'default' or 'pylance' did the trick.
Just to inform if none of above works then
In my case i was using Kite extension in my VS code, I just disabled it and it worked. I think kite extension is blocking this feature.
OS: Linux Ubuntu 22.04
if you encountered with following error:
"The .NET Core SDK cannot be located. .NET Core debugging will not be enabled. Make sure the .NET Core SDK is installed and is on the path."
Normally Vscode remains unable to locate .Net sdk. need to set path manually.
sudo ln -s /snap/dotnet-sdk/current/dotnet /usr/local/bin/dotnet
restart omnisharp & restart vscode
No need to do anything. Just close and re-open. It will work.
I also faced similar problem. In my mac os cmnd + 'click' is used to 'go to definition' then it suddenly stoped working. If that is the case then please follow these steps:
restart vs code
restart pc
uninstall all extensions and reinstall again followed by a pc restart.
I had a similar issue with the extension C/C++ installed. I solved it by downloading an older version of the extension and upgrading to the last version. Somehow it solved the problem...
Okay so basically I'm working on recursion. And I recently switched from a mac to a PC, so I'm now using eclipse instead of XCode for programming c++. now this has happened to me a couple times, and I still have no idea why its doing it. When this happens I do not get an error code, I've searched far and wide for this solution but haven't found one yet, so i'm hoping you guys could help. So everything was going great (almost finished), but i realized a bug, so I fix it, then I save it, then I build it, run it, then it doesn't build properly (i'm assuming), like it didn't build my new code, it just rebuilt my old code and ran that, im using MinGW, I've also tried to import my old code via copy and paste, but it did the same thing, please help.
*let me know if I left anything out that might be needed to know
**update on my project file it does have a error sign on it, but there isn't one in my code
***update update I looked through the errors and found that it doesnt have permission to open output file "recursive.exe" (my project name)
OK solution: run eclipse as admin
I have been trying out using Eclipse CDT for a course I am taking. Previously I have been using Visual Studio Express but since that requires me to be online and I have to use the IDE+compiler offline, I switched to Eclipse + Cygwin GCC.
Now everything was working prefectly, until I got an error about file paths in my make file. After reading some of the posts online, the issue seemed to be that Cygwin's make does not resolve absolute Windows file paths because of the ':' symbol and confuses it with a new target definition. The proposed fix was to download a fixed make file. I diligently did so and the programs would compile fine.
But after I went into the first debug session, everything froze. I aborted eclipse and tried a clean build but now the compilation wont happen AT ALL, which is very weird for me.
I can't find a post for a similar problem so I am really stuck now. I was currently working the assumption that my CDT may be corrupt or something so I downloaded Eclipse Luna just today and tried building using that, but no joy. Even a fresh project in a new workspace wont compile.
Appreciate the help in advance.
Did you try redownloading Eclipse? Sometimes Eclipse gets a fatal error glitch that makes it unable to compile anything. I've had this problem before, the only way i was able to fix it was to uninstall and re download the latest version. If this doesnt work, try switching to Bloodshed Dev C++ or codeblocks.
So it seems like an issue with the new make (v3.80). upgating it to v4.08 fixed the issue of not building.
Version 4.08 however does not fix the Windows file paths not being recognized properly and treated as a target definition. I am still getting the multiple target patterns. stop error.
EDIT: Found this on Stack overflow to solve the issue... should have searched better previously.
Very simple application fails with "multiple target patterns" from Eclipse
