C/C++ Compile Run extension

An extension running on Visual Studio Code to Compile & Run single c/c++ files easily

Features

Compile & Run C/C++ opened file directly from the command palette or by pressing 'f6' or 'f7'

Requirements

If you are on linux you must install gcc (see instructions)
If you are on window you must install mingw (see instructions)
If you are on mac os you must install clang (see instructions)

How to use

Make sure you have .c or .cpp file open. Press "F6", this will compile and run the file using default arguments in settings. Or press "F7", this will use the arguments you specify for the program. If you want to register gcc/g++ path manually, you can set it under settings. You can also set to save file before compiling.
