So I've been trying to use TextMate for coding in c/c++ instead of Xcode as of late, but any time I do a command-R to run my code, I get this error:
The current PATH is:
"/usr/bin /bin /usr/sbin /sbin /usr/local/bin /usr/X11/bin
Please add the directory containing “g++” to PATH in TextMate's Shell Variables preferences.
Alternatively, the PATH can be retrieved from Terminal but this requires a relaunch: "
Even when I try to retrieve the PATH from Terminal, I still get this error. Has any one run into this kind of problem before? Searching yielded no results, so I was hoping that someone here could help me.
Thanks in advance, -Matt

When you install the Developer Tools (i.e. Xcode and friends), the installer has an optional package called, I think, something like “Unix Supporț” which takes care of making tools like gcc/g++ available through /usr/bin. So the right way to fix this problem is to rerun the Dev Tools package
The wrong way would be to add /Developer/usr/bin to your PATH, which is where the cli tools are installed by default.
