have tried to uninstall and reinstall visual studio code, home-brew and X-code. No luck. Have not found internet searches that seem to provide option. Newbee to C++ and VS Code. Any help greatly appreciated.
I suspect this has to do with permissions but I’m not sure. If I enter, ls -l, in VS Code for the relevant folder, the files are listed, however, the hello program is listed in the color red.
btw, if I open the hello program from the MacOS Finder, it runs no problem. But from the Terminal in VS Code, it doesn’t work?
The terminal used in the course is different than the one used in MacOS, so the syntax is a little different. VSCode uses the system terminal for whichever OS it is installed on.
Thank you @Tuomo_T . I’m not sure how I got it working but ultimately I managed. I believe the issue has to do with permissions on MacOS. Whenever I debug, I’m asked to grant access to I my documents folder, which is a minor inconvenience, but it works. Thanks!!!
