I have been trying to customize the argument command for compiling the c file in vs code but I could not figure it out.
I would like to get warnings with -Wall and use the C99 standard with -std=c99 and I wanted to customize my argument like:
gcc -Wall -std=c99 hello.c -o hello
I guess I should add the argument in the tasks.json file but it is really confusing.
This is my tasks.json file.
{
"tasks": [
{
"type": "cppbuild",
"label": "C/C++: gcc.exe build active file",
"command": "C:\\MinGW\\bin\\gcc.exe",
"args": [
"-fdiagnostics-color=always",
"-Wall",
"std=c99",
"-g",
"${file}",
"-o",
"${fileDirname}\\${fileBasenameNoExtension}.exe"
],
"options": {
"cwd": "${fileDirname}"
},
"problemMatcher": [
"$gcc"
],
"group": {
"kind": "build",
"isDefault": true
},
"detail": "Task generated by Debugger."
}
],
"version": "2.0.0"
}
