    this is extremaly usefull ..I'm just starting out on C and programming all over. I've been using online C compilers becasue it seemed intimidating to use an IDE like this. But now after watching this video I can use Xcode with much ease and confidence. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

    • @madhurendratripathy
      @madhurendratripathy  2 года назад

      Hi 20DPCO200_M. Sameem,
      This is how you can do it in the easiest way :
      1. Install HomeBrew using command given below, by running it in the terminal :
      /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
      If you need a video guide to installing HomeBrew you can watch my video : ruclips.net/video/i0DFPySAMTA/видео.html from the timestamp : 2:45 to 4:13
      2. After successfully installing homebrew, run the command mentioned below in terminal :
      brew install gcc
      Now sit back & relax and let HomeBrew install gcc for you. It is smart enough to detect your machine as an Apple Silicon based machine & install gcc for Apple Silicon.

      Hi Mark Sardar,
      I have demonstrated how we can write different individual programs under the same Xcode project (parent folder) but under different individual program directories from 3:54 ( ruclips.net/video/_cDXKReugEU/видео.html ) in my video, if you meant that you want to have all the programs/code files under one directory, to my understanding that is not possible in Xcode because, Xcode uses something called as 'target' and one target cannot have multiple files with main( ) function mapped to it, if we try to do run a program with multiple main( ) functions it throws build failed error with a message stating "duplicate symbol '_main". If you wish to have multiple program file in same directory, I would suggest you to use some other IDE like VS code or Atom. I have already made a video on how to use Atom on macOS(ruclips.net/video/i0DFPySAMTA/видео.html) & will try to make a video on VS Code, soon.

      @@madhurendratripathy Thank you for taking your time and reply. Yeap, I was trying to put multiple MAIN() files under the same folder and it doesn't work, since you already know it won't work, that makes sense.
      I have watched your Atom video and it was GREAT ! I also have tried VSCODE; however, I think it may have some glitch cuz when I ran multiple lines for code, VS code just says "running" without any output on the console. The exact same code works on xCode and CodeRunner perfectly fine.
      My only complaints about the xCode is, it's a HUGE file and given the HDD of a Macbook, it's just too much :-(

      If you meant to ask how you can update Xcode on your Mac, you can go to AppStore and search for Xcode there, if there is an update available for your machine, you should see an update button, click on that & you should be good to go. Note that Xcode is pretty huge in size and hence updating it might take some time based n your internet connection speed.

      @@madhurendratripathy Thank you for your quick reply. In the meantime I had found a solution to the problem. In the target settings, under "Signing Options" > "Code Signing Identity" I had selected (or, rather, it was the default) "Apple Development". When I changed that to "Sign to Run Locally", everything built and ran just fine. I'm wondering why the project creator chooses "Apple Development" as the default. Can you observe the same?

    if I install xcode ..i do not need to install any compiler or code editor ?

      Xcode comes bundled with Xcode-command line tools which includes Clang compiler. Clang is a compiler for the C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ programming languages & is compatible with GCC, you can still opt to use GCC based compilers if you want to.
      You can learn more about Clang here : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clang
      If you chose to install GCC compiler, may be this guide can help you : www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-apple-mac-os-x-install-gcc-compiler/
      Coming to code editor, its your choice, you can either use Xcode or get any other editor or you can pick both of these options. Editing/Writing code in Xcode is a good experience, especially for C & CPP, I think it is a really good editor and the debugging in Xcode is quite amazing. I have talked more about it in my Helpful features of Xcode video. But for working on other technologies like Python, Web Development & Shell Scripting etc.. I personally use VS Code as it provides a better experience.
      I would suggest that you try different editors and stick with the ones that you find the best for your use cases.
      Happy Coding :)

      Hi Kush Patel,
      Sorry for the late reply, it is not really ideal to code in python using Xcode, I have personally never tried it, as there are many other better IDE options for programming in python. I personally use “Spyder”, “VSCode” & sometimes “Jupyter” but there are many other popular IDEs in the community like “pycharm”, “sublime text”, “atom” etc.. I would also suggest you to try one of these IDEs for python. I have already made a video on how to use Atom on macOS but I have not showed how to run python, but it is simple, just create a file with extension “.py” and run it in terminal using “python or “python3 ”.
      Now this doesn’t mean that you cannot use Xcode to build python programs, it is quiet a task, but if you want to try it, go ahead, follow the steps described here : www.macinchem.org/reviews/xcode/pythonxcode.php
      If you face issues let me know I will help you,
      One issue that you might face is
      Q. How to know where is your python env variable pointing to ?
      Ans : Run "where python" in your terminal & you the path will be displayed, if you get more than one paths that means you have multiple python versions installed on your system, probably python2.x & python3.x, to decide which on is 2.x.& which one is 3.x just copy the displayed path from the output and paste it in the terminal, hit enter & you will see that a python shell opens showing the python version, accordingly you can select which python path to use.
