You must select a host application to "run" a library

Question

I am working with Code::Blocks and trying to program with the C language. I have created a header file, an implementation file and the main. When I compile, I have no errors, but when I run it I get the following error.

You must select a host application to "run" a library...

The libraries are all in the same folder.

I also did include the header files in my main program.

I have tried on 2 different PCs, and it didn't work. i tried with a different piece of code and it worked flawlessly.

What should I do?

Thanks.

EDIT: Solved.

Go to Project -> Properties -> Build Targets

From the 'Type' drop down list select 'Console Application' (in my case).

Answer 1

Seems like you have created dll. Change to executable.

You may find details how to fix it/
