compiler crashed or quit unexpectedly mint 13 x64 maya (solv

[Zebuddi123]

Hi Compiler crashes or quits unexpectedly and restarts, even with just a basic for loop, fresh install 86 and 64 both have same problem, installed needed libs via root

ie apt-get install gcc g++ libc6-dev libsdl1.2-dev libgtk2.0-dev libgnomeprint2.2-dev libiodbc2-dev libgnome2-dev libxine-dev libgnomeprintui2.2-dev libxxf86vm-dev

all installed fine.

compiler not giving any clues as to why, is it possible to run the compiler from the terminal and get the compiler to throw error msg as to why its crashing ?

Thanks in advance

Zebuddi :O

Solved as root sudo apt-get install build-essential libgtk2.0-dev libgnome2-dev libgnomeprintui2.2-dev libxine-dev libsdl1.2-dev libiodbc2-dev libxxf86vm-dev libwebkitgtk-dev

all working

I have just installed the latest version of Linux Mint 17.1 on a new drive.
I have installed PureBasic 5.31(x64)
running ./checkinstall.sh in terminal says everything is fine.

I was experiencing the same problem as Zebuddi123 reported above.
Compiler crashes or quits unexpectedly and restarts with any code I try to compile.

when I try the fix he posted : root sudo apt-get install build-essential libgtk2.0-dev libgnome2-dev libgnomeprintui2.2-dev libxine-dev libsdl1.2-dev libiodbc2-dev libxxf86vm-dev libwebkitgtk-dev
The problem did not go away.

I did solve the problem however.
When I installed PureBasic I renamed the folder to this: purebasic_5.31_(x64)
The problem was caused by the parentheses '()' in the name.
I removed those and everything runs fine.
I was alerted to the problem when I tried to navegate to the folder with terminal and it complained about the characters '()'.

So in summary I had the same symptoms but a different cause.
Lesson learned: don't use parentheses in folder names even though the OS allows you to do it.
