How to compile a C program in code blocks?

Question

when I tried to compile my C program in codeblocks it shows error:
(cannot find -lbgi) and (1d return 1 exit status)...somebody please tell me quickly how to fix this?

Answer 1

no I got it...because some time before I changed the linker settings from compiler menu in which I added an unnecessary library called lbbgi.a and some text in the right pane.That's why the problem is occurring, but when I change it to default all goes good

Answer 2

it is telling you that there is an error in the code. It looks like you have asked it to #include a library called lbgi which code blocks can not find. I fyou are using code from another source and trying to run it in codeBlocks you need to brint that library or source file, usually something ending with .h with it.
