I've been searching whole internet but I can't find the solution for building my c project with clang compiler. I'm new to all this stuff and sorry for misunderstanding.
I have default tasks.json
file:
{
"version": "2.0.0",
"tasks": [
{
"type": "shell",
"label": "clang build active file",
"command": "C:/Program Files/LLVM/bin/clang ",
"args": [
"-std=c 17",
"-stdlib=libc ",
"-g",
"${file}",
"-o",
"${fileDirname}/${fileBasenameNoExtension}"
],
"options": {
"cwd": "${workspaceFolder}"
},
"problemMatcher": [
"$gcc"
],
"group": {
"kind": "build",
"isDefault": true
}
}
]
}
I can compile and this is what I've got compiled, 3 files:
I need to create executable somehow... Thanks for help.
CodePudding user response:
If you read the documentation (which is for MinGW but it's exactly the same for Clang for Windows), you need to explicitly add the .exe
suffix to your output file.
So your "executable" file is the one named main
, without any suffix or "extension".
You need to change your tasks.json
file to add the .exe
suffix:
"${fileDirname}/${fileBasenameNoExtension}.exe"
# Note the suffix here -------------------^^^^
