Compile error.

[A34Chris]

I am trying to compile this program and I figured out with some help here how to create a directory. However I'm getting another problem and I'm not sure if its an enviroment problem or what. Its the 'not an operable batch file or program' error when I go to compile.

I thought maybe some of the files got corrupted because I had a dirty DIMM slot that was giving me memory errors some time ago that corrupted some files that I fixed. So i redownloaded the source package. But I keep getting this error:

Any ideas?

[vart]

looks like some paths in the makefile should be wrapped with quotes - since they contain spaces.
Could you show your makefile contents?

[anduril462]

Just a guess here, but you're in Windows, yet using *NIX-style directory separators. Try replacing the slashes (/) with backslashes (\). Windows treats forward slash as a command line option, so it thinks you're doing bin /vc, where bin is the program name and /vc is the command line options.

EDIT: Also what vart said.

I altered the makefile for mingw32. About the only changes I did to it.

Got some input elsewhere. What do you guys think?

It's telling you the problem, you don't have anything named "bin" for it to run. The last line it's trying to execute is "bin/dtgen". Now, that might be confusing because you have a bin folder -- but note that it's not saying you are missing the bin /folder/, it says /command/.

The solution actually comes down to experience, I think. The other thing to notice is the error is coming from NMAKE, which is Microsoft's make program, and you probably want to be running GNU make. The error is because of the forward slashes ('/') which are correct for GNU tools but incorrect for DOS/Windows. It thinks you mean "bin /dtgen" (as a switch).

This is a common problem when you start installing multiple compilers on one machine. Easiest fix is to change your path when you start the shell so that the GNU bin folder (with 'make.exe' and 'gcc.exe', etc) is first, something like this:

PATH=c:\vbcc\bin;%PATH%

(except use the right path for your machine. Don't forget the %PATH% at the end, or your other programs won't work). Don't change it globally or Visual Studio will stop working, just do it in the command prompt. Once you have it right, you can make a batch file to set it up quickly.

So I need to somehow use the GNU make with this? nuts.

You should already have mingw32-make on your system.
So just use it instead of make (which is the MS make).

Well that worked... kinda....

It wont get back to the command prompt...
