Hi

I am a newbie using Eclipse with CDT.

I try to run a C++ program and i am getting "Lauch Failed no binaries".
This is the case when i try to run with both Standard and Managed projects.

I have installed cygwin and it contains g++.

What should i do to overcome this error.

Please help me.. Thnks in Advance

A search for "launch failed" in the message headers for this group shows
26 hits... the one that is the most succinct in its recommended fix says
"You must choose PE Windows Parser at
Project->Properties->C/C++ Make Project->Binary Parser"

There are other messages that talk about mingw and system paths and
indeterminate intermittent problems etc., but at the core they're
getting at the fact that internally something has to (1) generate a
binary (you're probably in good shape there), (2) be able to find the
binary generated (you'd think if CDT built it, CDT could find it,
but...), and (3) that it has to *recognize* the binary *as* a binary.
That's where the "binary parser" comes into play.
