Be sure to use "/" everywhere (or "\" everywhere, but this is not a good practice). You don't want to mix and match. GNU make's algorithm for finding targets is basically string comparisons. > ==> I can check formation of M6000 directory after the error message. > > ==> Above Source Codes are included in more than 180 codes. You are having problems because the directory is created as a side-effect of the target. I usually recommend using a shell function to create directories, like this: _dummy := $(shell [ -d $(TARGETDIR) ] || mkdir $(TARGETDIR)) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
