Visual Studio 2012不产生.exe

Question

I just installed and tried to build a simple Hello world program, however I can't seem to find the .exe, nor any way in which I can see the program produce the "hello world". Attached are the screenshots of what I am trying to do to build, and the folder in which I believe it should be outputting an .exe

Answer 1

1. Make sure, that the CPP file is inside the SourceFiles in your project. If it is not, it will not be built.

2. Check the properties of project (especially the General tab) for the output directory for project files.

3. Build your project. Visual Studio informs in Output window, where is the binary, eg.

1>------ Build started: Project: NativeConsoleSketchbook, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------
    1>Build started 2012-12-06 09:39:35.
    1>InitializeBuildStatus:
    1>  Creating "Debug\NativeConsoleSketchbook.unsuccessfulbuild" because "AlwaysCreate" was specified.
    1>ClCompile:
    1>  main.cpp
    1>Link:
    
    1>FinalizeBuildStatus:
    1>  Deleting file "Debug\NativeConsoleSketchbook.unsuccessfulbuild".
    1>  Touching "Debug\NativeConsoleSketchbook.lastbuildstate".
    1>
    1>Build succeeded.

    1>Time Elapsed 00:00:02.81
    ========== Build: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

Answer 2

Me too got build succeded message but the exe was not generated.

In Visual Studio Solution Explorer pane, right click on the source file and select properties. Make sure it is not set to " Does not participate in build "

Change it to the " C/C++ compiler " using the drop down list.
