I cannot reproduce this. in general, Make on Windows uses APIs that support command lines up to 32K bytes. I just successfully ran a Makefile that invoked a command with 23K bytes (which is more than your 18K, as reported on Stackoverflow), with no problems. So I think some other factor is at work here. The first suspect is the way you built Make 4.2. Could you please try the binaries available from this site: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ezwinports/files/?source=navbar (I'm guessing you don't need Guile support in Make, so the "without-guile" binary zip is for you.) This is the binary I used in the experiment described above. The command line I tried was this: echo 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 ... etc., up to 23K characters. Also, since you seem to be using the MSYS Bash, I used it as well (I have MSYS installed here). I don't know what kind of Bash build you got from the QNX toolkit, but at least the output of "sh --help" I get here is identical to what you show, so there's hope it's the same or similar binary. So please try the above-mentioned binary distribution of Make 4.2, and please try the simple command I used. If that works, then I suggest to try your real target with the same binary of Make. _______________________________________________ Make-w32 mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/make-w32
