Select New and add the Mingw-w64 destination folder path to the system path. Choose the Path variable in your User variables and then select Edit. Search for Edit environment variables for your account. In the Windows search bar, type 'settings' to open your Windows Settings. Take care to run each required Start menu and pacman command, especially Step 7, when you will install the actual Mingw-w64 toolset ( pacman -S -needed base-devel mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain).Īdd the path to your Mingw-w64 bin folder to the Windows PATH environment variable by using the following steps: You can download the latest installer from the MSYS2 page or use this link to the installer.įollow the Installation instructions on the MSYS2 website to install Mingw-w64. Get the latest version of Mingw-w64 via MSYS2, which provides up-to-date native builds of GCC, Mingw-w64, and other helpful C++ tools and libraries. You can install the C/C++ extension by searching for 'c++' in the Extensions view ( ⇧⌘X (Windows, Linux Ctrl+Shift+X)). To successfully complete this tutorial, you must do the following steps: If you have any problems, feel free to file an issue for this tutorial in the VS Code documentation repository. For those subjects, there are many good resources available on the Web. This tutorial does not teach you about GCC, GDB, Mingw-w64, or the C++ language. In this tutorial, you configure Visual Studio Code to use the GCC C++ compiler (g++) and GDB debugger from mingw-w64 to create programs that run on Windows.Īfter configuring VS Code, you will compile and debug a simple Hello World program in VS Code. Configure IntelliSense for cross-compiling. There is already a pair of pre-made batch files for debugging the OHRRPGCE. Or you can create a batch file with the same command in it. From a command-line prompt, you can type:Ĭ:\mingw\bin\gdb.exe program_to_debug.exe 
(These instructions are for mingw32, not the mingw-w64 fork. You can get the latest mingw installer here which can in turn install gdb.Īfter installing MinGW, run the "MinGW Installation Manager" (which for me was located in C:\MinGW\libexec\mingw-get\guimain.exe ) and then make sure that the mingw32-gdb bin package is installed. MinGW distributes a Windows version of gdb. If you are using Linux, you probably already have gdb, but if you are using Windows, you will need to install it. When used together with gdb, it can provide useful information about crashes.
The latest debug build of the OHRRPGCE is available here: ohrrpgce-wip-directx-sdl-debug.zip.
