compilation problems

[Cal Thorne]

Jean,

The only problem I could see was the dreaded '^M' at the end of your file.
Must've been opened with a DOS prog or something (I'm still not clear on all
the semantics of the nl/cr issue).  Anyway, I think I deleted it in the file
I include with this post.

Good Luck!

Cal

Subject: compilation problems


Hi !

I'm impressed by your product package (the unix-like api, gcc and gdb) which
has allowed me to write, debug and run my programs as i would do in an Unix
environment.
Besides, the api is very similar and contains nearly all the unix and shell
commands.

However i have a strange problem:
when compiling from a file that contains the different gcc lines, OK !
when using a makefile and make (UNIX mode), i have the persistent following
error message:
	missing separator

I have unix-like makefiles :
directories described using forward slashes (with or without full path
description ie /cygnus/cygwin-b20/cgi or c:/cygnus/...). I've also tried the
backslashes
variable description of the like : DIR_EXE=/cygnus/... and calling with
$(DIR_EXE)/bin
the standard gcc options (which i use in the text file i compile from)


Have you got any idea ??

(i've included a sample makefile)

 <<makefile>>
