A simple solution to "Process terminated with status 255" in Codeblocks
|

If you face the "Process terminated with status 255" error in Code::Blocks, it possibly means that the default program that C::B uses for launching console programs is something you've not installed on your OS (in my case, it was xterm). you don't necessarily need to install xterm and customize the font etc. Just change the Codeblocks default:
In Codeblocks, I went to Settings > Environment , and from the drop down menu next to Terminal to launch console programs, selected the Terminal (in Mint 16 Cinnamon, mine was "gnome-terminal --disable-factory -t $TITLE -x").
Now Codeblocks won't try to run my C program in xterm that does not exist on my PC (or at least even after installing it, I don't like the look or want to change it constantly).

Can anybody help? I fixed the "255" but no I am facing Process Terminated with status 0.

Thanks..Adding "xterm" from the Software center DO solved the missing terminal/console!
Thanks a lot. I installed CB under Rebecca and got started with C++ at www.learncpp.com. After installing the g++ package I had this status (255)
Your solution came in very handy. I don't think I could have figured it out myself.
Friend, you saved me a lot of time and pain.
