Question

Alright, so I'm having some executing issues. Whenever I try to execute from the bin-debugger-program name pathway I get this.

I need these extensions before I send into professor or he can't open them, but I don't know how to install them and I've already re-installed twice.

If you need help guiding me through this here this is.
I am using MingW to compile.

This is the link for the other extension that's missing.

The instructions seem pretty clear, but I'm having trouble correctly doing them as my attempts never work. Can you help me through it?

Answer 5

You compiled it like this?
"g++ code.cpp -o Ashton2.exe"

Answer 6

I'm not sure how exactly it compiled. In CodeBlocks, there is simply a little compile button. It only tells you if it was successful or not.

Answer 7

Try adding the libraries as shown in the link below.

Answer 8

Which libraries do I have to add specifically in this case?

Answer 9

And why will this solve the missing .dll things I need?

Just curious haha.

Answer 10

There is two libraries I will need, but I'm not sure what specifically to add.
@Sachintha

Answer 11

Add libgcc and libstdc libraries. I am following what others have done since I have never used code blocks. :D

Answer 12

Alright I added the libraries, but still got the same result.

If I did everything right, time to consider another option haha.

@Sachintha

Answer 13

Though, preferably, don't give up on me. This is the last thing I need help with LOL.

Answer 14

Type the name of dll files properly. I was lazy to type the full till the extension. :3 Like libstdc++-6. Make sure everything is typed properly.

Answer 15

Oh haha

What's the full name of the other one : )

Sorry I'm just making sure

Answer 16

Did it work?

Answer 17

Oh I was waiting for you to confirm the other one haha

Answer 18

libgcc_s_dw2-1
libstdc++-6

Answer 19

Alright let me try it
@Sachintha

Answer 20

Nope, no luck yet.

Answer 21

Ohh :(

Answer 22

Actually, it did work for one.

Answer 23

It's this one I'm missing still.

Answer 24

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4984612/program-cant-find-libgcc-s-dw2-1-dll

Should I try linking -static based off of what he's saying?

Answer 25

I put those in the link place like I did the others but neither worked

Answer 26

I believe this is a MinGW/gcc compiler issue, rather than a Microsoft Visual Studio setup.

The libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll should be in the compiler's bin directory. You can add this directory to your PATH environment variable for runtime linking, or you can avoid the problem by adding "-static-libgcc -static-libstdc++" to your compiler flags.

If you plan to distribute the executable, the latter probably makes the most sense. If you only plan to run it on your own machine, the changing the PATH environment variable is an attractive option (keeps down the size of the executable).

Updated:

Based on feedback from Greg Treleaven (see comments below), I'm adding links to:

[Screenshot of Code::Blocks "Project build options"]

[GNU gcc link options]

The latter discussion includes -static-libgcc and -static-libstdc++ linker options.

What about what this guy is saying?

Answer 27

Alright, well I tried adding the linking options he recommended.

I suppose I should try to do this now, but I'm not sure how. Can you explain?
The libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll should be in the compiler's bin directory. You can add this directory to your PATH environment variable for runtime linking

Answer 28

It involves editing system environment variables. Btw, do you have the dll file in your program folder?

Answer 29

No. How do I install it there? Where in the program file?

Answer 30

Copy the dll file from the mingw bin directory to the folder where your program(exe) resides.

Answer 31

http://prntscr.com/bf265m

Oh they do exist.

Answer 32

I'm not sure where to paste them.

Like, here? http://prntscr.com/bf26ge

Answer 33

Yeah paste the missing dll file there and try.

Answer 34

HOLY CRAP YES IT WORKED AHHHH I WANNA MARRY YOU THANK YOU

Answer 35

IM SCREAMING LIKE A GIRL IVE WORKED AT LEAST 6 HOURS ON THIS THANK YOU

Answer 36

Thank and marry rubenvb in stackoverflow. xD I did nothing. You could add the other library without linking it in code block. Anyway, it worked! :D

Answer 37

It worked for all but one of my programs?

This was one of the messages I got. Well, six, but I did the same thing in all of them and this program can't build because it can't detect the extensions I pasted in the directory.

@Sachintha

Answer 38

Well that program is in another directory. Isn't it?

Answer 39

How would I find that out?

Answer 40

Is it in the same folder as ashton.exe?

Answer 41

No, but they all have the bin-debug-program pathway and I paste the extensions in the same place as I did the others where it worked

Answer 42

Seems like it is a compiling error. Make sure to add those dll from code block and try compiling.

Answer 43

from code block

What do you mean?

Answer 44

It won't let me build

I have to do that before I compile but it won't let me build due to those reasons
