I am new to using gnumake onder DOS. Our company does builds by checking out code from PVCS with path names like
\\tree0\foo\bar\bld\nt

Will the win32 port of gmake grok these paths. So far when I try a simple test like

foo := $(wildcard \\tree0\foo\bar\bld\nt\*_v)

all:
    @echo $(foo)

The echo returns nothing or Echo is on

If I change the wildcard call to

foo := $(shell echo \\tree0\foo\bar\bld\nt\*_v)

I get \\tree0\foo\bar\bld\nt\*_v

Is this an issue with path seperators or perhaps the SHELL?

There are 10 types of people in the world.
Those who understand binary, and those who don't.



Smile..it makes everyone wonder what you've been up to!!
