when i try to run my project it says "project debug uses an invalid compiler.probably the tool chain path within the compiler options is not setup correctly....skipping...nothing to be done".the thing is, i made this project using codeblocks and after sometime, instaed of running the project, it opened the header files and tried to run them instead, so i reinstalled it..
Did you download CodeBlocks with MinGW or just CodeBlocks? Or are you going to use a compiler other than MinGW?
with MinGW.
Read this thread on Code::Blocks
Toolchain path not setup correctly
Fixes some of the people; the others tend to fail to respond to what fixes there problem.
Things to check listed in the order that seems logical to me.
- Verify you have a Compiler installed; NOTE Code::Blocks is NOT a compiler
- Verify the toolchain of the Installed Compiler
- Verify the project you are compiler is really using the Compiler you have installed

thanks. this solved the debugging problem. but now it runs stdio.h and debugs it...it wasnt like this before.
I tried using code::blocks with minGW also, I downloaded the entire GCC, spent an hour or two trying to figure out how to use it, then found minGW. Now I can only run programs outside of code::blocks 50% of the time since it seems like the compiler doesn't like taking compiler flags from the xml script inside of code::blocks.
@seanJ:
Read the Code::Blocks FAQ and turn on full compiler logging.
