Is it important to have a Visual Studio project to build GNU make? isn't it sufficient to use the build_w32.bat file, or one of the other methods to build GNU make on Windows? You will have to explicitly source the VCVARSALL bat file from whichever version of Visual Studio you want to build with yourself first. But, unless you plan on developing or debugging GNU make itself using Visual Studio I'm not sure there's a huge advantage to having a project file. I don't do a lot of development on Windows so if there's some good reason to include a project file, please let me know. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
