ok so i installed CDT for C++ development on my machine. I tried to make it work and followed these instructions to set everything up. By mistake i have gone into the Project>Properties>C++ Build>Enviorement and hit restore defaults by mistake. I dont know if that changed anything but i get the following error when i run my class.

I tried to switch the slashes in the given path "C:\Users\Nathan\workspace\Project\Debug" to forward slashes but that did nothing. I still get the same error. Any hints on what im doing wrong?

  • It's saying `stddef.h` doesn't exist on your machine. Does it? – Carl Norum Apr 21 '13 at 04:17
  • yea its not there. I just dont understand why. ANd how can i fix that? – Xitcod13 Apr 21 '13 at 04:33
  • Figure out which Cygwin package contains it and install it I guess. – Carl Norum Apr 21 '13 at 04:34
  • I cant find where it located I tried looking online but most of the people that have problems like this are on linux. I also installed most of the development stuff from Cygwin (except some big files which didnt mention C++ or g++ etc) i dont think it was in one of those files. At least i hope not. – Xitcod13 Apr 22 '13 at 03:48

  • I already installed those directories, but i tried re-installing and it fixed my problem but now im getting a have a different issue that the build completes successfully but when i try to lunch the program the lunch fails claiming no binaries are found. – Xitcod13 May 02 '13 at 00:02
