Build file: "no target" in "no project" (compiler: unknown)

I wrote a code in c/c++. After correcting all the errors, I tried to compile and build it and I get this error log:

-------------- Build file: "no target" in "no project" (compiler: unknown)---------------

gcc -std=c11  -c /sysroot/home/arij/tryvache.c -o /sysroot/home/arij/tryvache.o

      Process terminated with status 1 (0 minute(s), 0 second(s))

What is wrong here?

Looking at the error message you have posted in the OP, I think it translates to

tryvache.c:(.text+0x130) : Undefined reference to 'pow'

used in tryvache.c

You must compile the code with flag -lm which instructs your compiler (gcc) to link with math library which contains pow() function.

If you have written the makefile all by yourself then you can simply add -lm as instructed in the comment above. If you are using an IDE like eclipse, then you will have to go though compiler options and/or build settings to find a correct section where the linker flags (such as -lm) needs to be added.

On eclipse IDE these are usually at GCC C Linker > libraries under the C/C++ Build settings.

Side note: It will be better if you setup your toolchain in English, if not, at least translate the errors for the people trying to solve your problem.
