Why doesn't Codelite create a make file?

I'm using Solus Linux with G++ and whenever I build the default console project in CodeLite I get the following output

/bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/make -j4 -e -f Makefile'
/bin/sh: /usr/bin/make: No such file or directory
====0 errors, 0 warnings====

I checked and make does not exist in /usr/bin in-fact, the most promising thing I found in this directory was a file called codelite-make

Here are the options I selected at project creation

Category: Console Type: Simple executable (g++) Compiler: GCC Debugger: GNU gdb debugger Build System: CodeLite Make Generator

Any help is greatly appreciated

Solution

  • You need to use your package manager for your linux OS to install make and now glibc and possibly other parts of your toolchain. CodeLite does not provide these.
