At the moment I placed the following code onto notepad and saved it as samp.c:
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("This is output from my first program!\n");
return 0;
}
############################################################
now save da file where ever u want to save on ur PC and
try this out------------>
(1) cc (full path name)\samp.c -test
(2) ./test
here test is the output file
u can also use
(1) cc (full path name)\samp.c
(2) ./a.out
Have you tried specifying the complete path to sample.c?
Your program looks fine, and sample.exe should run fine too allthough I don't think you really need the .exe extension. Unless I'm mistaken that's something Windows needs to recognize it as a "executable" file.
You could also do "gcc sample.c -o sample.bladiebla" and run it just fine.
Just a thought.
Assuming you are using linux, you need to mount the windows partition and use "tab-completion" to change into the correct directory. Linux does not use drive letters.
Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.
