C4droid (C compiler for android)

[noobster6616]

I have just started learning C programming and I am using C4droid to compile my code on my Huawei Ideos U8150-d.I have not installed the G.C.C plugin but I read that the plugin is for C++.

I wrote in the code below

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
      printf("I am noobster");
}

It compiles successfully but when i try to run it it says "illegal instruction"
What could be the problem?

I have no idea. The code compiles and runs for me on Visual Studio.NET 2008.

Maybe it's because main() returns void instead of int. That should not make a difference but it's the only error I can see.

Take a look at these canonical C FAQs for discussion of why defining main() to return void might cause your program to fail.

• What's the correct declaration of main()?
• Can I declare main as void, to shut off these annoying ``main returns no value'' messages?
• I believe that declaring void main() can't fail, since I'm calling exit instead of returning, and anyway my operating system ignores a program's exit/return status.
• So what could go wrong? Are there really any systems where void main() doesn't work?
• The book I've been using, C Programing for the Compleat Idiot, always uses void main().

If you're using C4droid, Go to (preferences) from menu and choose (select compiler), then select (TCC+uClibc) and run it again.
