problem with codeblocks

i am a newbie to C++ programming. so i downloaded "code blocks" as said in one of the webpages here. but when i press F9 to build and run , i get a message that "main.cpp" is using a invalid compiler. what should i do ? kindly help me

Hi,

compile that for testing:

Code:

---

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{

cout << "Hallo" << endl;

return 0;

}

---

Maybe it is a syntax error or something.

best rgds, John C

The first time you download c::b, you need the larger image, which contains IDE AND COMPILER.

The smaller one is the IDE itself, which is being actively developed, and changes often.
The compiler is pretty static, so you tend to only need to get that just the once.
