1
00:00:04,820 --> 00:00:10,880
In this video, I'll show you how to use the source code provided for the course in Visual Studio code.

2
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:16,250
So the first thing we need to do is we need to get the source code and the source code is in the course

3
00:00:16,250 --> 00:00:20,630
and you can see here in the course content and if you scroll all the way to the bottom, you'll see

4
00:00:20,630 --> 00:00:27,590
section 22, extra information source code and other stuff right here and right in there, you'll see

5
00:00:27,590 --> 00:00:29,010
source code for all sections.

6
00:00:29,010 --> 00:00:33,650
So if you click on that, you're going to see the source code that's going to be downloadable here,

7
00:00:33,860 --> 00:00:38,030
and each one of these is going to be a zip file for each section of the course.

8
00:00:38,030 --> 00:00:41,960
Now, as I'm making this video, this is in section 22.

9
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:48,230
When you all watch this video, most likely this will be way down here, section 25 or 26 or 27 or somewhere

10
00:00:48,230 --> 00:00:54,230
down at the bottom of the content, because the new lectures that I'll put in the course will be inserted

11
00:00:54,230 --> 00:00:54,620
in here.

12
00:00:54,620 --> 00:00:59,450
So anyway, just look for extra information and then source code for all sections and you'll find it.

13
00:00:59,450 --> 00:01:02,660
And then once you do that, you can download the source code.

14
00:01:02,660 --> 00:01:09,140
So for example, I'm going to download section four right here and I'm just going to click on there

15
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,200
and then I'm going to save that to my desktop.

16
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,500
I've already done that and you can extract it to the desktop as well.

17
00:01:15,500 --> 00:01:19,940
So the idea is create a section for folder on my desktop.

18
00:01:19,940 --> 00:01:23,240
Now I say my desktop, you can do this anywhere you like.

19
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,630
I'm just putting it on my desktop just to make it easier to show you.

20
00:01:26,630 --> 00:01:31,160
So I've already done that and if you come over here you can see my desktop.

21
00:01:31,190 --> 00:01:36,320
There is the section for folder that I unzipped and there are the contents of the folder.

22
00:01:36,350 --> 00:01:40,820
You'll notice this is a code like structure and that's okay, Visual Studio code, we'll just ignore

23
00:01:40,850 --> 00:01:41,180
that.

24
00:01:41,180 --> 00:01:47,060
But I've got one, two, three, four, five, six, seven projects inside this folder.

25
00:01:47,510 --> 00:01:49,190
So I think you know what to do.

26
00:01:49,220 --> 00:01:53,240
You go over to Visual Studio code and you open up the section for folder.

27
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:54,950
So let's do that right now.

28
00:01:57,370 --> 00:02:04,570
So here's Visual Studio code and I'm just going to open the folder and I'm going to open up the section

29
00:02:04,570 --> 00:02:06,760
for folder on my desktop.

30
00:02:07,510 --> 00:02:13,450
So I'm just going to select that folder and it's going to open it up just like we did when we created

31
00:02:13,450 --> 00:02:13,600
our.

32
00:02:13,930 --> 00:02:17,110
Now again, you'll notice this code light information Makefile.

33
00:02:17,110 --> 00:02:20,680
You can delete this folder and you can delete these two files if you like.

34
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:21,610
I wouldn't delete them.

35
00:02:21,610 --> 00:02:25,240
I would just leave them in there in case you ever want to use code like they're there, so you might

36
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,080
as well keep them there.

37
00:02:26,590 --> 00:02:29,320
So we can't do anything yet.

38
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:36,220
Remember, we need to create the V code folder with the launch json test, JSON and CP properties file.

39
00:02:36,370 --> 00:02:38,770
We only have to do that once per project.

40
00:02:38,770 --> 00:02:45,040
So once we include this section for folder, now we have to set that up and then after that we're good

41
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:45,370
to go.

42
00:02:45,370 --> 00:02:50,530
We can compile and build any of these projects a couple of ways we can do this.

43
00:02:50,530 --> 00:02:53,590
We can do it the same way that we did it in the previous videos, right?

44
00:02:53,590 --> 00:02:55,390
I could just do it manually and create them.

45
00:02:55,390 --> 00:02:59,320
That's pretty easy and that's what I'm going to do now, just so that you can see it one more time,

46
00:02:59,620 --> 00:03:05,260
you can also just copy and paste that vs code folder that you've already created in that other project

47
00:03:05,260 --> 00:03:05,920
that we did.

48
00:03:05,990 --> 00:03:08,380
Just copy it right in here and it'll be good to go.

49
00:03:08,920 --> 00:03:09,190
All right.

50
00:03:09,190 --> 00:03:13,450
So what I'm going to do is, like I said, I'm going to create it from scratch, just like we did before.

51
00:03:13,450 --> 00:03:17,080
So I'm just going to open up any one of these guys and select that main.

52
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:18,610
CP That's important.

53
00:03:19,060 --> 00:03:25,120
And then what I'm going to do is I'm going to come up here to view the command palette and select again,

54
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,040
that's edit configurations UI.

55
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,460
If that doesn't show up, just type C++ and it will show up somewhere in here.

56
00:03:30,460 --> 00:03:31,690
That's what I'm going to choose.

57
00:03:32,140 --> 00:03:33,490
We'll do just like before.

58
00:03:33,490 --> 00:03:40,600
We'll change this GC to G Plus Plus and we'll come down here and we'll set the compiler standard to

59
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,020
C++ 17 right there.

60
00:03:44,050 --> 00:03:44,650
That's it.

61
00:03:44,650 --> 00:03:45,730
I'm saving that.

62
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:51,820
And now you can see that it's created the V code folder with that CP properties JSON file.

63
00:03:51,820 --> 00:03:52,570
Pretty good.

64
00:03:52,870 --> 00:03:53,890
So we're done with that.

65
00:03:53,890 --> 00:03:55,180
I'm just going to close this up.

66
00:03:55,180 --> 00:04:00,640
The next thing we'll do is we need to create the task JSON file, so we'll come over here to terminal

67
00:04:00,940 --> 00:04:03,310
and configure default build task.

68
00:04:03,790 --> 00:04:05,020
What are we using?

69
00:04:05,020 --> 00:04:11,140
We're using G plus plus right here and that's going to create my test JSON file.

70
00:04:11,140 --> 00:04:16,480
What I can do here is just like we did before, I want to add my warnings.

71
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:20,529
I want to add the C++ 17 standard.

72
00:04:23,830 --> 00:04:31,360
I want to change line 12 here, which is the file to file your name just like that.

73
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:36,730
And I just want to add slash slash star DHCP so it compiles all the files.

74
00:04:37,300 --> 00:04:37,990
That's it.

75
00:04:37,990 --> 00:04:39,130
We're done with that.

76
00:04:39,130 --> 00:04:42,100
So at this point we can build and run a project.

77
00:04:42,100 --> 00:04:44,350
So let's run this first program right here.

78
00:04:44,350 --> 00:04:51,040
So again, I can select close test JSON, I can select that main CP and I can come up with the terminal,

79
00:04:51,220 --> 00:04:54,850
run the build test and we should get a clean compile that we do.

80
00:04:54,850 --> 00:04:58,570
And you can see right here or my mouse is that it's doing first program.

81
00:04:58,570 --> 00:05:02,830
That's that project right there, that folder and it finished successfully.

82
00:05:02,830 --> 00:05:07,720
If I want to run the XY file which was created, you can see it's created right there.

83
00:05:08,050 --> 00:05:15,490
I can right click on that, open it in the integrated terminal and just type dot slash main XY.

84
00:05:16,030 --> 00:05:19,020
Enter your favorite number between one and 150.

85
00:05:19,780 --> 00:05:20,320
Amazing.

86
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,730
That's my favorite number too.

87
00:05:21,900 --> 00:05:24,010
Just like what the source code says up here.

88
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:26,560
So that's it.

89
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:26,980
We're done.

90
00:05:26,980 --> 00:05:30,730
We can run any of the other programs in any of the other folders the same way.

91
00:05:31,450 --> 00:05:35,350
Now, what we're going to do is we're going to set up the debugger.

92
00:05:35,620 --> 00:05:38,830
So we're going to set up our debugger so that we can debug as well.

93
00:05:38,830 --> 00:05:46,000
So what we do now is we go up to run add configuration, we're going to select g plus plus gdb lib.

94
00:05:47,060 --> 00:05:53,930
We're going to slight G plus plus again and we're going to get this running when it's done, just kill

95
00:05:53,930 --> 00:05:57,430
it right here with that little red box because we're not interested in running it right now.

96
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:03,110
What we do want to do is we want to modify this launch JSON file and all we're doing is we're taking

97
00:06:03,110 --> 00:06:09,380
this file, your name right here, including the dollar and the curlies, just like that.

98
00:06:09,380 --> 00:06:11,780
I'm copying it and I'm pasting it into here.

99
00:06:14,870 --> 00:06:15,830
Just like that.

100
00:06:18,020 --> 00:06:18,680
And that's it.

101
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:19,820
We're done with that.

102
00:06:20,180 --> 00:06:26,390
If you make mistakes here, let's say you forget that that close quote, you're going to get squiggles

103
00:06:26,390 --> 00:06:27,350
and stuff will turn red.

104
00:06:27,350 --> 00:06:29,000
So make sure you don't see any of that.

105
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,770
Everything looks nice and nice and clean like this.

106
00:06:31,790 --> 00:06:34,670
No squiggly lines, no red errors or anything like that.

107
00:06:34,970 --> 00:06:38,270
When we're done, we can save it and I can close that up.

108
00:06:39,020 --> 00:06:40,370
And now let's say I'm here.

109
00:06:40,370 --> 00:06:46,340
And so if I want to debug this program, I would select the main CP file and I would click on this bug

110
00:06:46,340 --> 00:06:47,030
right here.

111
00:06:47,840 --> 00:06:52,160
If you have any breakpoint set down here, you can just delete them all, as I showed you before.

112
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,430
And now we're going to set a breakpoint, let's say, right there.

113
00:06:56,860 --> 00:07:01,270
And once we're good to go, we just press this green arrow right here and our program will start in

114
00:07:01,270 --> 00:07:02,080
the debugger.

115
00:07:02,410 --> 00:07:06,460
You can see I've got a variable favorite number here and you can see its value is zero.

116
00:07:06,460 --> 00:07:11,080
Its value is actually undefined because I haven't defined it, but the debugger is putting a zero in

117
00:07:11,110 --> 00:07:12,940
there that could be any value in there.

118
00:07:12,940 --> 00:07:13,560
That's it.

119
00:07:13,570 --> 00:07:17,830
Now if I want to execute line eight, which is where I'm stopped at, I would just click this button

120
00:07:17,830 --> 00:07:22,840
right here, step over, and now it's asked me, enter your favorite number and it's just waiting me

121
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:23,650
to type something in.

122
00:07:23,650 --> 00:07:26,050
I'll type in 45 and press enter.

123
00:07:26,290 --> 00:07:27,760
Now I'm at the next line.

124
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:32,290
You can see that now favorite number is 45 and I can continue here.

125
00:07:32,290 --> 00:07:34,540
I can stop the program, I could do whatever I like.

126
00:07:34,780 --> 00:07:35,650
That's it.

127
00:07:36,100 --> 00:07:36,820
Program is finished.

128
00:07:36,820 --> 00:07:41,440
I can go back to my explorer and execute another program here.

129
00:07:41,530 --> 00:07:42,700
So there you go.

130
00:07:42,700 --> 00:07:47,410
This is how you would use the provided source code with Visual Studio code.

131
00:07:47,410 --> 00:07:52,630
So at this point, you have everything you need to be able to work in code light or in Visual Studio

132
00:07:52,630 --> 00:07:53,290
code.

133
00:07:53,290 --> 00:07:58,180
Some students prefer code light, other students prefer Visual Studio code, and now you've got the

134
00:07:58,180 --> 00:07:59,710
tools to do it both ways.
