Compiling multiple files? about atom-gpp-compiler

[kriscross07]

The new version of atom-gpp-compiler that was just released should allow you to compile multiple files by selecting the files you want to compile in tree view, right click, and click Compile and run.

I'm also having difficulties compiling multiple files, with package 3.0.7, running ubuntu 16.04. g++ CLI works fine.

EDIT: After more than an hour troubleshooting (and of course a few minutes after posting this) I finally got it working. Here's what to do, and what not to do:

DON'T right click on the file name, where a larger menu will appear if other plug-ins are installed, when wanting to press "Compile and Run"

DO right click on the blank space right beside the file name. Here a smaller menu will appear and you can press the "Compile and Run" or other commands without linking problems.

Can you include the file at the top of test.cpp with #include "otherFile.cpp" or #include "otherFile.h"?

I tried including the header file, but it seems to throw the same error...

/tmp/ccaBYY9Q.o: In function main':<br>test.cpp:(.text+0x19): undefined reference toadd(int, int)' test.cpp:(.text+0x66): undefined reference to add(int, int, int)'<br>test.cpp:(.text+0xaf): undefined reference totest(bool)' test.cpp:(.text+0xec): undefined reference totest(double)'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status`

When i enter into command line and execute g++ test.cpp functions.cpp it works fine....

Using Atom 1.19.4 in combination with gpp-compiler 3.0.7 package still produces the same result mentioned by vinothbabu for me. Likewise, using the g++ CLI works fine here too.

My platform is Windows 10 x64 1703 and g++ (GCC) version 5.3.0 is installed.

Any ideas?

Yeah, just like with deleting multiple files, using the context menu restricts selection to whatever you're right clicking. Seems to be a bug with Atom.io itself.

@KristianKorsgaard i have tried but it is not working...

i am trying to use class declaration using (.h) and (.cpp) declaration.....

Issue for me was that the path to those files contained a space character, and because of that it couldn't compile.
Error:
'E:\C++_Projects\C++' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

And the path to those files was:
"E:\C++_Projects\C++ Example\example.cpp"
and
"E:\C++_Projects\C++ Example\example2.cpp"

Renaming "C++ Example" folder to "C++_Example", solved the problem...
