GCC / Clang C/C++ Compiler On Android Using Termux (Linux Environment)

gistfile1.txt

Install Termux App.
type "apt update"
Then We have to install a text editor to write our code so type "apt install vim" for vim text editor
or u can also use nano text editor for nano type "apt install nano"
Now Clang Installation type "apt install clang" and wait for download completes.
now to create a file simply type vim filename.c or .cpp or nano filename.c or cpp 
then u will able to write ur code . 
write.....to save ur code simply press esc then type ":wq"
now code is ready to compile 
type "clang filename.c -o filename"
If ur code is right then it will be compiled.
Else it will show error.fix it.
To run ur program simply type "./filename".
Tada...Done.




1. apt update
2. apt install vim or nano
3. apt install clang
4. vim/nano filename.
5. clang filename.c -o filename
6. ./filename

@AhaomaMichael type
apt update && apt upgrade
apt install clang
clang++ UserAge.cpp -o UserAge
./UserAge

@AhaomaMichael type apt update && apt upgrade apt install clang clang++ UserAge.cpp -o UserAge ./UserAge

apt update && apt upgrade - Had couple of errors.
apt install clang - This returned an error "Unable to locate clang"

Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

pkg up && pkg upg
pkg i build-essential

Thanks so much. The fault was actually from me. I was using the playstore version.
Am still very new in the tech space :)
Thanks for the support.

It's not considering iostream header file and conio file

Working fine for everything else but not working for this short prime number code.

//GNU nano 7.2 004prime.c
#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
int a,b;
printf("enter the number to check prime : ");
scanf("%d\n",&a);
for(b=2;b<=a-1;b++){
if(a%b==0){
printf("%d is not a prime",a);
break;}}
if (b==a){
printf("%d is a prime\n",a);}
return 0;}

Soo I'm here on this old thread. I can't chmod a+x the file, it doesn't change anything. Device isn't rooted, so to execute files device needs to be rooted? Or otherwise how to execute a file since chmod isn't working.

The shared storage is mounted with noexec
copy the file to $HOME to chmod +x

Are you sure installing clang will give you GCC? Clang is the name of the LLVM C compiler. LLVM is a competitor to GCC.

This is 7yr old post mate, I didn't even know a shit 7yrs ago, anyway it should run a C code fr ;)

If you want to install GCC on Termux, here's how you can do it...

pkg install tur-repo
pkg install gcc-14 gcc-default-14

That's it. Now you can use GCC to compile code. So instead of "clang filename.c -o filename" you would run "gcc filename.c -o filename".

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <termios.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

struct termios oldt, newt;
int ch;
int oldf;

tcgetattr(STDIN_FILENO, &oldt);
newt = oldt;
newt.c_lflag &= ~(ICANON | ECHO);
tcsetattr(STDIN_FILENO, TCSANOW, &newt);
oldf = fcntl(STDIN_FILENO, F_GETFL, 0);
fcntl(STDIN_FILENO, F_SETFL, oldf | O_NONBLOCK);

ch = getchar();

tcsetattr(STDIN_FILENO, TCSANOW, &oldt);
fcntl(STDIN_FILENO, F_SETFL, oldf);

if (ch != EOF) {
    ungetc(ch, stdin);
