How to set up Visual Studio Code for Executing and Debugging C Programs | Tutorial

[@naveed_snr]

Tip: If you're using PowerShell as your default terminal (which is mostly the case for newer windows versions unless you have manually tweaked some settings) and are getting an error message after configuring Build and Run task, just set cmd as the default terminal or at 14:33 , replace the '&&' with a ';' as && is not recognized by powershell. BTW this is one of the best and most complete tutorials that you can find on VS Code setup.

[@ternurasan]

@@sourabhsinghrawat9066 in the big line at 14:33 he uses && to connect "... .exe &&${fileDirname}..." instead of using && try using ; only, in case you're getting an error when running the code!

Prior to using VSC, I used CodeBlocks in my last programming class and compiling, running, and debugging seemed much simpler. I'm not going to lie, this has been pretty intimidating!

[@chandrashekarr1977]

I am from turbo c c++ era... It was much simpler than these modern day craps... For the first time, am seeing a software from Microsoft which is not at all user friendly! Horrible

[@mortenlund1418]

I have been folowing another tutorial on this subject (fortunately) and it is so much simpler. I cant think of a more complex way to get the same tasks done than this - ok if you choose to start digging for silicium to make your own chips maybe. I am a beginner and what I installed that did all what he is showing here ? For one an extension called coderunner. You only have to press a play botton.

Hello I'm a beginner in C program Can anyone tell me what learning lad has done in this video I didn't understand anything after the simple program of age..

At line:1 char:114 + ... iles C\helloworld.c -o D:\programme files C\helloworld.exe &&D:\progr ... + ~~ The token '&&' is not a valid statement separator in this version. + CategoryInfo : ParserError: (:) [], ParentContainsErrorRecordException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : InvalidEndOfLine This is the error that I am getting , could you please help me resolve it ?

[@DevanshDixit]

This got resolved by using a semicolon. The other problem that I faced was at 18:54 , this is still showing the same error even after using the /"

[@LearningLad]

Can u post your task.json file content

[@LearningLad]

yes that semicolon is not required. you just need to use &&

[@MarinaPopelov-df7pc]

Best tutorial ever! I was already desperate when I found it and it really helped me, huge thank you! Also, maybe someone can help me with one issue, despite placing the " \" " (17:54), I still got problems with the spaces when parsing the paths, maybe someone knows what can it be?

[@diamondoinam621]

Please tell me how to fix "The terminal process terminated with error code 1".

[@matiasiudica3605]

nothing is working for me. Neither way i get the job done. First way says it doesnt recognize the name of the file but the path is fine. Second way the task doesnt show in the options to select it
