Running or debugging anything gives me an extremely frustrating "Launch failed. Binary not found" error. I'm using Eclipse with a CDT plugin installed (specifically, I have the MinGW package installed).
I already tried setting both the user and system PATH variables to include my (MinGW directory)/bin
I also tried building the program before running it.
I also made sure that PE Windows Parser under the project's settings was enabled.
I went to Project Properties > Run/Debug Settings > New > C/C++ Application > Environment > Select > and I selected the Path
I also tried setting the C/C++ Application in the Main tab to the executable file that is made from building the program, but no such file is made when I do build my program. I seriously doubt that this is what's causing the problem, though.
I'm running out of options, and the problem still persists. What else needs to be done? What am I doing wrong?
When I was looking through the install instructions for MinGW, the tutorial referenced the mingw base package as the package to install after installing MinGW. But mingw base was not available to me. Instead, I saw mingw32 base. Could it be that Eclipse, a 64 bit program, is trying to run 32 bit code? Is that what's going on? If that's the problem, how do I fix it?
