Summary: make doesn't work.

Initial Comment:
The Makefile given below works well with Cygwin's make 
while MinGW shows the following error-message:

MinGW_make: *** No rule to make target `make_test.a
(make_test.o)', needed by `make_test.a'.  Stop.

both make.exe are GNU Make Version 3.79.1


Copy of the Makefile:

# EXECUTABLE NAME(S) GIVEN BELOW
EXEFILE = make_test

# TARGETLIBRARY NAME GIVEN BELOW
TARGETLIB= make_test.a

# OBJECTS GIVEN BELOW
OBJMAIN = make_test.o
OBJS= $(TARGETLIB)($(OBJMAIN))

#------------------------------------------

$(EXEFILE): $(TARGETLIB)
	$(AR) -x $(TARGETLIB) $(OBJMAIN)  
	$(CC) -o $@ $(OBJMAIN) $(TARGETLIB)
	$(RM) $(OBJMAIN) 

$(TARGETLIB): $(OBJS)
	@echo library $(TARGETLIB) is now up-to-date
