I get a segmentation error here, but i dont think its the root cause

#

Neither gcc nor g++ work - g++ gives the same error as above

#

And when I try to run it again, i get this

#

Something may be wrong with the code. I don't know any cpp; i copy pasted it from https://www.learncpp.com/cpp-tutorial/compiling-your-first-program/ to ensure i have everything setup correctly

Does it show you which version of the libstdc++ DLL it's loading?

Sorry, I don't know what thats referring to...

Check the debug menu/window

It gives me this

misty ginkgo Dec 2, 2024, 5:07 AM

#

Yeah, so what's happening is anaconda's libstdc++ dll is getting loaded first, rather than the one from your mingw install. you need to change your path such that your install's mingw binaries are before anaconda's

#

Ah i see

#

Do i need to change something in the anaconda environment?

misty ginkgo Dec 2, 2024, 5:10 AM

#

what's likely the case is your compiled code is mismatching with the DLL (it's likely an older version of mingw), thus it just crashes because the OS can't really handle it

#

i mean, this'll likely break anaconda

#

i have zero clue how to properly resolve this for anaconda

rare meteor Dec 2, 2024, 5:11 AM

#

Ah

#

Really appreciate the help though in any case

#

Would uninstalling anaconda fix it lol?

#

I can always just reinstall all the libraries as i need them

Good luck!

Thanks - any thoughts on where to head next for advice?

misty ginkgo Dec 2, 2024, 5:13 AM

#

For the anaconda stuff?

rare meteor Dec 2, 2024, 5:14 AM

#

Yeah or to resolve this issue

misty ginkgo Dec 2, 2024, 5:14 AM

#

Either an anaconda or mingw specific discussion forum. You could try the github issues or mailing lists

#

Or if they have specific discords

rare meteor Dec 2, 2024, 5:15 AM

#

Got it. Thanks again, have a good week

misty ginkgo Dec 2, 2024, 5:15 AM

#

You as well.

#

Also, one "solution" may be to sandbox your installs in VMs/Containers

rare meteor Dec 2, 2024, 5:18 AM

#

Hm i see

#

Not sure how to do that but I'm sure I can learn - I'll look into that
