Set Up C++ Development With Visual Studio Code on Windows 10 (VS Code)

You have no idea how many videos I have gone through to find this knowledge and all of them failed to meet my needs in worst possible ways. Thank God for this channel. Stay blessed and thank you very much.

Property isDefault is not allowed. How to fix that

[1] install visual studio (10GB file size), but works or [2] muck around with VS code configurations for the next 3 hours....

Sorry I found it I was looking at wrong folder

I do not have c++ folder under E:\MinGW\include

why its diff with my vs code

what version is this vs code ?

Finally done with my setup . Thanks alot . Trying from 2 days . Finally done

@Programming Can you make a latest version setup video for c++ where the version of c++ is more than 12 or 12 atleast.

THANK YOU!!!!

This is a joke, it's just taken me over 2 hours to work through this video repeatedly switching to vsc to make the appropriate file edits. Finally managed to get to the point where I can compile. Debug working but emits unintelligible series of error messages into the terminal window.
It would have been much easier to just provide the files needed and point out where to change the names etc. assuming default installation paths.
As a development tool chain this is just not usable in the real world, why on earth is there not just a simple create new project button that does all this setup for you?

Thanks for help

who wanna do it in vs code...if process is like hell to install

Better than the other video which claims to setup c and c++ but c is only thing he is working with. This is much more intuitive and holistic.

How come when I download the mingw, I get a compressed zip folder that does not contain any .exe file?

Thank you so much!

Hi < I do not want to get the .exe file , how to do it, and then why cant I see the output in the OUTPUT TAB

whoever tasked to promote C++ should immediately ban visual studio code from having C++ be available there, the setup is just fucking insane, no fucking new programming learner is going to know what is happening (and they probably switch to learning something like Java or Python), and even a relatively clear video like this take 23min to explain the whole mess. BTW thanks for the video, am going to not use VSC for C++.

I have gone insane trying to get this to work and it still doesnt

Seems overly complicated.

I have found GOD

THANK YOU!

If anyone getting trouble in path then change "\\" to "/"

dios y redentor que viva los programadores indios

or you can just yay -S gcc

Mingw shows virus

After clicking on debug launch:program "does not exist. is showing

LOVE YOU! by debugger is finally working now!!!!!!!!!!!!

hello , I'm getting the below error while trying to build a c++ thread program.
"error: 'thread' was not declared in this scope"
I'm able to build simple c++ programs that doesn't need thread support.
How to resolve this issue?

Can someone please tell how to open the c_cpp_properties.json the bulb icon not showing in my editor 🙏

how to set icon exe ???

Thanks for the help, this is absolutely insane.

I have this error when I try Control+Shift+B for the tasks :
g++.exe: error: main.cpp: No such file or directory
g++.exe: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.
The terminal process "C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -Command g++ -g main.cpp" terminated with exit code: 1.

Terminal will be reused by tasks, press any key to close it.

Anyone else with this error ?

Thanks man! It works like a charm. The trickiest part seems to be the .vscode folder with the properties file, my C++ projects display "Hello word!" even without it. I don't get why it's needed but whenever i create new projects i just copy and paste the .vscode folder directly into my new project's file.

I have a problem during building the programme

Shld we need to do the json process for every new C++ program 🙄 ?

installer crashes as soon as I mark the files for installation

WHAT THE HELL!!!???

Hi, I cant change my enviroment variables( no admin permissin) how can i still lunch c++ without specifying the path of c++ in enviroment variable????

Still helpful in 2021

do I need to setup debugger everytime I need to debug my code??
or just once it is done and then forever

it's not downloading. everytime i click on download it gives readme file only

Please.....MinGW installed correctly and I tried on my CMD....it worked. But on vscode, when I try to compile some code it says "term set-location is now recognized as a cmdlet." I've tried everything but I still can't get my code to run in the terminal. Please what can I do?

Nawaz Sharif love you too, sir!. You save my day.

I have got literal dreams about this... There's all kinds of probs

MinGW doesn't look safe and a bit dodgy. I've read that it has malware on it. Can anyone tell me whether or not it does
