dwarfandsjljtwo kinds of exception handling model for selection. The performance of dwarf is better than sjlj, but it does not support 64-bit
Click the selected version to download, after downloading, you will get the 7zcompressed file, decompress it to getmingw64
2. Configure environment variables
Click mingw64 to enter and you can see the bindirectory, then add binthe path of the directory to the environment variable
- Press the
Win + Rkey to open the operating window, entersysdm.cpla carriage return; - In the pop-up
系统属性window, select the高级tab; - In the
高级find tab环境变量button, click the环境变量button to open the环境变量window; - In the

编辑环境变量window, click新建, enter the path to the bin directory in the new line, and then click OK.
3. Test whether the configuration is successful
Press the Win + Rbutton to open the Run window, enter cmda carriage return, enter the command linegcc -version
C:\Users\zsr204>gcc --version
gcc (x86_64-posix-seh-rev0, Built by MinGW-W64 project) 8.1.0

If the above result appears, it means the installation and configuration are successful
Two, install the C/C++ plug-in
In VS Code in the Ctrl + shift + xopen store, search c/c++, select first be installed
Three, the first program
Create an empty directory, open with VS Code, and then create a .cppfile, write a simple code
after completion, you can see the button is not running; this time we click on the sidebar 运行, click 启动调试
and then select GDB/LLDB
and choose g++.exe
this time being given
attention ! ! This is not a configuration problem, but the .cppfile path cannot contain Chinese. We create a new .cppfile in another English directory and repeat the above code
Follow the above steps again, click to start debugging, select GDB/LLDB, and then select g++.exe. At this time, the following interface will automatically pop up. At this time, we switch to hello.cppand click the run button in the upper left corner to run the
result:
ps: .cppAt the end of the run , a .exefile will also be generated . .cppWhen there are a lot of exefiles, a lot of files will be generated , which seem to interfere with the line of sight, we can set the hidden
Click the lower left corner to open the settings,
swipe down, find Files:Exclude, select the add mode, enter **/*.exe, and click OK.
Then you can't see the exefile, it has been hidden
Fourth, related plug-in recommendation
1. Visual Studio IntelliCode
Visual Studio IntelliCode(IntelliCode) is a set of AI auxiliary functions that can improve the work efficiency of developers through functions such as contextual intelligence, parameter completion, code format and style rule inference.
IntelliCode extends existing developer workflows with machine learning services that can help you understand the code and its context. It is now available for C#, C++ (preview), JavaScript/TypeScript (preview) and XAML code, and will be updated in the future to support more languages.
