C/C++ compiler and debugger
The C/C++ extension does not include a C++ compiler or debugger. You will need to install these tools or use those already installed on your computer.
Popular C++ compilers are:
- GCC on Linux
- GCC via Mingw-w64 on Windows
- Microsoft C++ compiler on Windows
- Clang for XCode on macOS
Make sure your compiler executable is in your platform path so the extension can find it. You can check availability of your C++ tools by opening the Integrated Terminal (⌃` (Windows, Linux Ctrl+`)) in VS Code and try running the executable (for example g++ --help).
