I'm now going to give c++ a try to see what this language have to offer. I'm having some trouble setting it all up though. I have downloaded Eclipse CDT and followed this guide : <http://www.dcs.vein.hu/bertok/oktatas/cpp_by_eclipse/eclipse_for_cpp_on_windows.html#Install_gdb>

I am using Windows 7 64bit.

I have never installed a compiler before, and I'm not sure what exactly I am doing wrong. It gives me an "Launch failed. no binary found" error when I try to run my program. However there is no binaries folder. I have tried building, it loads for a while, but nothing really happens.

Any idea what to do? I am completely new at c++ so please be patient and let me know if there's anything I am missing :)

The console in eclipse says the following:
