Unable to use gcc for compiling

Unable to use gcc for compiling

[mukesh.lekhrajani]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 327 bytes --]

Hello Team,

 

I am a bit new to GCC, so downloaded 13.1.0 from -
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-13.1.0/

Download the zip file == gcc-13.1.0.tar.gz

 

I unzipped it to a folder, now - I cannot see the bin folder or gcc.exe or
make.exe ?

 

Can anyone please help. Where am I missing.

 

 

 

Thanks, Mukesh

You've downloaded the source code for GCC, which needs to be compiled.
The GCC project does not provide executables for download, only source
code, see https://gcc.gnu.org/install/binaries.html

Assuming you're on Windows, you probably want to download something
like mingw-w64 instead. That includes a version of GCC built for
Windows.

Hello Jonathan !

Thanks for your quick reply.

Let me try and download the latest version of mingw-w64 and try to compile my C++ program.

Hello Jonathan,

So now - I download the mingw-w64 file from https://github.com/niXman/mingw-builds-binaries/releases
The file is = x86_64-13.1.0-release-posix-seh-msvcrt-rt_v11-rev1.7z

and now, am able to see the required files for compiling my code.

In case I need any help, I will mail to gcc-help.


Thanks, Mukesh
