Hi Mark, I think I've seen this one before, and it was due to an environment variable. Something like MAKEMODE, MAKE_MODE, MAKE_FLAGS; I don't recall which exactly, but it was definitely a MAKE* or MK* variable. Unsetting it, or setting it to empty did the trick.
Regards, Steven -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Jaffe Sent: Saturday, 22 May 2004 6:49 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Failure to build in cygwin Once again I am stumped by this stubborn problem. Due to certain support issues, I am using the setup "perl Configure" for VC-WIN32 and then invoking ms/do_masm.bat followed by "nmake /f ms/ntdll.mak". When the last command gets invoked, I receive the error message "NMAKE : fatal error U1065: invalid option '-'" I have diligently searched the file ntdll.mak and it contains NO '-' options (I converted them all to '/' options with sed.) Even when I invoke it with "nmake /d /p /f ms/ntdll.mak" I still get this message; the additional flags are supposed to provide debug info but are totally useless. What shall I do to determine where the problem is arising? ======================================================== Mark Jaffe | (415) 946-3028 (work) Release Engineer | (408) 807-2093 (cell) OSAF | (415) 946-3001 (FAX) [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.osafoundation.org/ PGP Fingerprint: 3435 EB88 6424 F5DF F2CA EF16 2DBF DFEF 143C 1ADE ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
