C++ program built successfully but does not run [message #783005]

I am pretty new to eclipse and I am currently trying to generate a C++ program. Eclipse tells me that the the project is successfully built, but the program does not seem to run correctly. All I get is "expecting at least -k and -n...". I have uploaded what I feel is the relevant bit of code as the program is fairly large.

If anyone has any suggestion on where my mistake lies it would be greatly appreciated.

You should provide some more info. Is the error message from your program? At least, the message is not in the source code you attached. Does the program not run correctly or does it not run at all?....

Hi Axel,

Thank you for your response I have been playing around with it and now keep getting the error 'make -f Makefile all make: *** No rule to make target'. From my understanding it is because the compiler is unable to locate the makefile. However I have directed it to? A bit confused. I have uploaded the entire code, as I am unsure how to fix this.

If you have any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

In Project Properties->C/C++ Build you can define the build location (where your makefile resides). Default is project root.
Did you create the Makefile or is it generated by Eclipse? If the later is the case Eclipse should find the Makefile.
