When i create a new project with pods, a get an error in the tasks window saying "Project build command is not GNU make". What does this mean, i know i have the gnu make. Also, when i try to build a project, in the C-Build window make doesnt work because pods passes it a -k option "make -k all". Make says "incorrect command line argument and it shows me a list of different options. How do i alter the make options for pods? Thanks
If the -k option isn't working, then GNU Make isn't the first make.exe in your path. The -k option tells make to continue the build even if errors occur, and has been a standard GNU make option for a long time.
To test what is being run, open a command window and type "make -v". You should get a notice about GNU Make 3.80. If you type "make --help", you'll get a summary of the valid options. If you get a copyright notice from Borland or Inprise or some other make tool vendor, you need to adjust your system paths so that Cygwin's bin folder comes before their folders.
