Compiler Question And A Doubt

[m0skit0]

What's your code?

I'm just writing simple programs of C. Like a basic Hello World like this:

Code: Select all

#include<stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
      printf("Hello World");
      getch();
}

And this,

BTW, I'm always confused which type to choose from all of these:

Which one to choose?

I installed MinGW and MSYS as written in the Eclipse guide and I choose MinGW and every program run just fine!

i think your .upc is the project file. i use Code::Blocks on my ubuntu build, and it uses a .cbp file which contains information on all the files associated within the folder

No, actually I'm asking about what type of project to choose?

Are you saying the Hello World UPC project?

I just checked my first Hello World, and it was Hello World ANSI C project, in fact there isn't any option for UPC in mine! Never had any problem with ANSI C though!

Actually I checked both of them, the ANSI C and the UPC and both of them works fine.
I think I should stop thinking about these mysteries and move towards my main goal

You should choose ANSI C almost always (unless you know what you're doing), and MinGW GCC compiler.
