Why won't my C++ program execute after building?

[diredocks]

I'm currently diving into C++ and have recently transitioned to using VSCode as my primary editor. I've been experimenting with its integrated debugging features, but I've hit a snag—it doesn't seem to execute the program after I build it. I've been following the official guide diligently. Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this?

My task.json as followed:

{
    "tasks": [
        {
            "type": "cppbuild",
            "label": "C/C++: g++ build active file",
            "command": "/nix/store/ac1hb5dc2z4biwgy8mjrhlifffkkrvdq-gcc-wrapper-13.2.0/bin/g++",
            "args": [
                "-fdiagnostics-color=always",
                "-g",
                "${file}",
                "-o",
                "${fileDirname}/${fileBasenameNoExtension}"
            ],
            "options": {
                "cwd": "${fileDirname}"
            },
            "problemMatcher": [
                "$gcc"
            ],
            "group": {
                "kind": "build",
                "isDefault": true
            },
            "detail": "Task generated by Debugger."
        }
    ],
    "version": "2.0.0"
}

It appears the issue stemmed from a bug specific to NixOS. Following the steps outlined in this forum thread, linked here, I managed to resolve the problem and get everything working smoothly.
