QBPE 3.6.0 compiler error

[madscijr]

I finally got around to unzipping QB64PE 3.6.0 and giving it a try. 

I'm running Windows 10 Pro on a Microsoft Surface Pro 3 with 8 GB RAM and an i7 (whatever generation from 2014-15):

Code: (Select All)

Edition    Windows 10 Pro
Version    22H2
Installed on    ‎1/‎14/‎2021
OS build    19045.2604
Experience    Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.4190.0

I set Windows security to whitelist the QB64PE folder and the process "qb64pe.exe", and tried running the following code:

Code: (Select All)

Cls
Print "hello world"
Sleep

However it's giving me a compiler error: 



Here is what is in "compilelog.txt":

Code: (Select All)

internal\c\c_compiler\bin\c++.exe  -w -std=gnu++11 -DGLEW_STATIC -DFREEGLUT_STATIC -Iinternal\c\libqb/include -Iinternal\c/parts/core/src/ -Iinternal\c/parts/core/glew/include/ -DDEPENDENCY_NO_SOCKETS -DDEPENDENCY_NO_PRINTER -DDEPENDENCY_NO_ICON -DDEPENDENCY_NO_SCREENIMAGE internal\c/libqb.cpp -c -o internal\c/libqb_make_00000000000000.o
c++.exe: error: CreateProcess: No such file or directory
mingw32-make: *** [Makefile:405: internal\c/libqb_make_00000000000000.o] Error 1

Any ideas what I need to do to get it working?
Any help would be appreciated!

Did you extract the zip or 7z into a completely new folder?

[Jack]

is your c++ compiler intact?
rhe error you got is the same that you would get if cc1.exe is missing
cc1.exe is usually found in libexec\gcc\x86_64-w64-mingw32\12.2.0 for example, your version may vary

[madscijr]

Did you extract the zip or 7z into a completely new folder?

Thanks for your reply. In the Downloads folder, I right-clicked on the 7z file and from the 7zip context menu, clicked "expand here". Then using Windows Explorer's cut/paste, I moved everything to a "QB64PE" folder. Pretty much the same as the old QB64 2.x (which is still on my machine under folder "QB64").

I right-clicked the "QB64PE" > Properties > Security and the permissions are "Full Control" by default for my user and Windows, just like with the "QB64" folder.

[mnrvovrfc]

This is not good. Might have to list against Windows Defender or whatever, the other EXE and DLL files other than "qb64pe.exe" that it depends on?

[bplus]

You say "expand here" what you want is to see is "extract", maybe worth it to just dump last attempt and just try again?

You didn't say where you extracted the "QB64PE" folder. It should be somewhere in your home directory, but you probably already knew this. (scratch head)

How about going into the "terminal" and trying to compile from there? Giving the program a name like "helloworld.bas" and then doing "qb64pe.exe -c helloworld.bas". Why does the IDE even allow programs to be compiled out of a source code file which wasn't saved to disk yet?

Saying this also for people who are still trying to install to "Program Files" because they were used to WindowsXP and earlier. And you did say (before this thread was created) you were still using QB64 v2.0.2, which probably still supported WindowsXP...

Probably not helping at all...

You say "expand here" what you want is to see is "extract", maybe worth it to just dump last attempt and just try again?

Sorry for the confusion, I was not at my PC when I posted, and meant "extract" (there isn't an "expand" option in 7-zip).

To clarify, here is what I am doing:

1. copy "qb64pe_win-x64-3.6.0.7z" from "Downloads" to "Documents/Code"
2. right-click the .7z file
3. from the context menu, click 7-Zip > Extract here. 7-zip creates a "qb64pe" folder and extracts 22,000+ files

Thanks for your reply. "cc1.exe" is there.

You didn't say where you extracted the "QB64PE" folder. It should be somewhere in your home directory, but you probably already knew this. (scratch head)

Yes, it's under my /Documents/ folder, just like with the old QB64 2.0.2.

How about going into the "terminal" and trying to compile from there? Giving the program a name like "helloworld.bas" and then doing "qb64pe.exe -c helloworld.bas".

Good idea... OK, I tried it, and am getting the same thing:



here are the contents of "compilelog.txt":

Why does the IDE even allow programs to be compiled out of a source code file which wasn't saved to disk yet?

No idea, LoL. In QB64 2.0.2, typing in a hello world program and running it with F5 generates "untitled.exe" which is fine with me.

Let me give this a try...
Saying this also for people who are still trying to install to "Program Files" because they were used to WindowsXP and earlier. And you did say (before this thread was created) you were still using QB64 v2.0.2, which probably still supported WindowsXP...

I understand, and no, I did not try to install QB64PE under "Program Files". It's under "Documents".

Probably not helping at all...

No worries, I appreciate you trying to help!
