Code::Blocks SDL help!

pieceOfPi (8)
So I am doing the tutorial at http://lazyfoo.net/tutorials/SDL/01_hello_SDL/index2.php for SDL (I am a beginner). I wrote the program fine, but this always happens: When i build it this is outputed: 
1

3
 

Linking stage skipped (build target has no object files to link)
Nothing to be done (all items are up-to-date).

and when I try to run it it asks something along the lines of "This project hasnt been built yet, would you like to build it?". I press yes, then it does the same thing but keeps asking me and the program never runs. Here is the code if you are interested:

#include <SDL.h>
#include <stdio.h>

//Screen dimension constants
const int SCREEN_WIDTH = 640;
const int SCREEN_HEIGHT = 480;

int main(int argc, char* args[])
{
    SDL_Window* window = NULL;
    SDL_Surface* screenSurface = NULL;
    
    if(SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO)< 0)
    {
        printf("SDL could not initialize! SDL_Error: %s/n" SDL_GetError());
    }

    else
    {
           window = SDL_CreateWindow( "SDL Tutorial", SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED, SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED, SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT, SDL_WINDOW_SHOWN );
        if( window == NULL )
        {
            printf( "Window could not be created! SDL_Error: %s\n", SDL_GetError() );
        }
    }
     else
        {
            //Get window surface
            screenSurface = SDL_GetWindowSurface( window );

            //Fill the surface white
            SDL_FillRect( screenSurface, NULL, SDL_MapRGB( screenSurface->format, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF ) );
            
            //Update the surface
            SDL_UpdateWindowSurface( window );

            //Wait two seconds
            SDL_Delay( 2000 );
        }
      //Destroy window
    SDL_DestroyWindow( window );

    //Quit SDL subsystems
    SDL_Quit();

    return 0;
}

Thanks for your help. All comments are appreciated!

Did you follow the instructions for how to set up SDL to work in Code::Blocks?

Yep. Same problem. What could the problem be?
