That pspad program should provide configuration settings for things like "console output". gcc is not a debugger to add breakpoints and such. You can use the very powerful gdb in conjuction to gcc for this purpose. kavi PS: Is it necessary to use an IDE? > I need to write some small programs under windows.I use pspad as my > editor and mingw as complier.But I cannot get the complier's > output message.Is there an option of g++ to create the log > file,cause I can not find one while i use the following command: > g++ -o myprogram myprogram.cpp. Pspad need to locate the log > file to get it showed in its output window.
