It said to put the following in the NppExec window: NPP_SAVE Well, it looks like the first post I linked to has a partial solution - it looked like (despite the mention of c files in the post name) that it was summarizing how to compile perl scripts.

I can get my code to run by first manually compiling it in a command window. In Notepad++ I used the Plugin Manager to install the NppExec plugin. I then used it to install the mingw32-gcc-++ package, as well as the mingw32-libz.dll and v packages I downloaded mingw-get-setup.exe from which installed the MinGW Installation Manager. Here's what I've done to get things set up: Which gave the following in the Notepad++ Console: NPP_SAVE: C:\Users\Bart\Desktop\new delete me\test.cppĬurrent directory: C:\Users\Bart\Desktop\new delete me The system cannot find the file specified.įrom other pages it seemed as though I just needed to paste that code in, that the all caps words aren't meant to be replaced but are variables.

Notepad++ gives me the following information in its Console: NPP_SAVE: C:\Users\Bart\Desktop\new delete me\test.cppĬurrent directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++ĬreateProcess() failed with error code 2: That was based off the first link I gave: npp_save

The code I have now is: npp_saveĬd "$(C:\Users\Bart\Desktop\new delete me)" When I tried to enter compilation/run code into NppExec, it's not working. I was reading and decided to try that, so that I can continue to write code in Notepad++ and have a shorter compile/run cycle.
