Hi,
I have
Gnumake Ver 3.77 for Windows 95 and
Gnumake Ver 3.79 for Windows NT which i downloaded from www.gnu.org as sources
and built.
I am facing a problem in using this Gnumake on Windows NT as explained below:
Gunamke for Windows NT
----------------------
When ever Gnumake encounters "mkdir" in the makefile it is trying to
create a directory. If directory already exists it is exiting with Error 1.
Example:
My Makefile contains the following
" mkdir ..\test "
Gnumake interprets the above makefile and creates a "test" directory first time.
When we
run the Gnumake again for the same makefile it is exiting with Error 1 when it gets
to above line.
Following is the error message.
mkdir ..\test
A subdirectory or file ..\test already exists.
gnumake[3]: *** [../../../../test/bcd_user.h] Error 1
Gunamke for Windows 95
----------------------
I ran the gnumake for Windows 95 for the same above makefile and it was going through
fine
without any errors.
My Question
-----------
Why Gnumake for windows NT is exiting if a subdirectory or file already exists ?.
Suggest some solution or work around to overcome from this Error 1.
Thanks in advance
Meyappan.
