How to run an executable from within a c program?

I installed C\Turbo C++. But i am not able see executable window after i compiled n run the program. Pls help?

  • Here i have see 0 errors and 0 warning. But when i press Ctrl+F9 key i am not getting any executable window. Is it any issue with installation?

  • Answer:

    Your programs compile and executes fine but you are not getting output window right. If that so, solutions are - 1) After compilation and execution using ctrl + F9, go to menu window->output. You'll see the latest output window. 2) Just add getch() or getche() function at the end of your main(). It will hold the window for user input ( Specifically waits for character) and you can see your output.

Yes, i know this problem, during compilation it says "UNABLE TO MAKE .EXE", Click OK. I would recommend you to go for Visual Studio 2010 Express Edition rather than doing it on Old system such as Turbo C. Also in VC++ 2010 You can set your Preference to DEBUG and RELEASE versions of .exe file. As you know VC++ makes exe files automatically for debugging as well as for release version. It is free for 30 Days and available at Microsoft Site and It is best IDE.

It could be your executable window is up and down too quickly. Try putting this: char c[2]; cout << "Hit enter:"; cin.getline(c, 2); ... at the end of your code. When you run it, it will stop and wait for you to hit the "Enter" key.

add a delay(); function a the end of your code, to check if you output window is not getting closed faster.
