I found out that geany doesn't just directly compile source codes, instead it makes "object files" and then makes an interpreter program to run it -.- is there some kind of way to keep it from doing that?, I just want it to compile it directly! no DLLs, no Object files, just turning it into the program. I am running Ubuntu 10.04, and I have geany version: 0.18

I just did some testing. If you select build instead of compile, it will build in one step. At least, that's what it does with .c files.

On my setup/version it requires you to compile (into the bytecode) then build (linking it to the ELF binary).

Here's a screenshot of my setup in compiler includes and argument menu:

You'll notice the "compile" option does what it says, it compiles the code into bytecode (an object!) so the "build" command will link the object into an ELF/etc binary. This means you'll need to do it in that order, IDE's are just shells on a compiler. It doesn't force any which way.
