Hi Cygwin_Techies,

I  have been trying to install working packages of Cygwin for our
current project but fails in every attempt with some issues. Currently I
find  the Cygwin doesn't report the compilation errors from  Microsoft
Visual Studio C Compiler. Let me explain the problem clearly. I am
trying to compile a C program through "Makefile" from Cygwin. This C
program has syntax errors which are supposed to be shown by Cygwin when
running  C compiler. It just indicates the following lines and stops :

make: *** [/cygdrive/h/test.obj] Error 1

If I run the C program without using "Makefile" from Cygwin, errors are
properly indicated. I feel the problem exists with "make.exe" of Cygwin
and their dependency executables.
Can anyone spot the problem happening here and highlght a solution for
this?

Where did you explain your problem "clearly?" Make doesn't have default rules to deal with .obj. Did you write in a rule? e.g.
.c.o:
cl /c $*.c
mv $*.obj $*.o


or, if you don't want to rename the .obj files, did you add .obj in .SUFFIXES and add rules about how to make .obj from .c and .exe from .obj?
