Re: Make Error

When I try to Export to Project Navigator, the following error occurs: ublaze_top.make:146: *** target pattern contains no `%'. Stop. I don't understand what you are asking or reporting. This is not a bug, more like an expression of the fact that the Cygwin project doesn't generally support using paths with drive letters, i.e. Win32 style paths, because Cygwin tries to provide a *nix-like environment. It has been discussed to death on the Cygwin mailing list and to a lesser degree on the make-w32 mailing list. There is a workaround implemented in CVS HEAD. This error is probably due to an unsupported version of the make utility in the [snip directions] So, it seems you have your solution. What's the question?

Re: 3.81 and windows paths
Bob Rossi wrote: Is it true that 3.81 does not work with windows paths? If so, what is the solution now? I need to use the unix path interally to make, and use the windows path only when compiling with cl? Please refer to the lengthy discussion on the Cygwin list. To summarize, the Cygwin version of make prior to 3.81 contained local patches to support both posix and Windows paths. The Cygwin maintainer got tired of continuously maintaining these local patches and so when packaging 3.81 the vanilla sources were used. This means that only posix paths work. However, completely separate from Cygwin is the native (mingw) build of make which has always supported Windows paths and always will. So it's completely wrong to say that make doesn't support Windows paths. You should use this version if you need to support such paths. The only thing that has changed was on the part of the Cygwin make maintainer, and so this discussion belongs on the Cygwin list (where it has already been hashed out in length.)
