#286 makefile gener failed

[Lajos Molnar]

Hi!

I use version 4.9.8.7. with WinXP SP1.

Dev-Cpp not generate the makefile.win.
The project dir struct is

Project----
---CommonCode
---ProjectSpecCode

The dev file is in "ProjectSpecCode".
If I change the struct and all source file is
under "ProjectSpecCode", then the dev-cpp genrate the
makefile ok.

I use the ProcExplorer (Sysinternals) and with this tools i
must close the handle to makefile.win, and dev-cpp
working right.

Sorry my poor English.

Thanks
Orfanik

so this error was due to an incorrect exe output setting ?

not, the output settings was correct, but relative.

I use the processexplorer from Sysinternals, with this can
see and close open handles. If i start rebuld in dev-cpp,
then produces one makefile.win with 0 length. Then is close
with processexplorer the handle (without close the dev-cpp
program). Start new rebuild, then produces right...and
working ok.

maybe it should have beeen
"..\gameeditor\bin"
not
"../gameeditor/bin"
could you try this?

with this form "..\gameeditor\bin" working

Sorry, not working....

If i update this settings and make rebuild, working,
then restart dev-cpp.exe and not working. "Could not create
makefile.win"

I couldn't reproduce the problem, the Makefile builds ok here.
Have you compiling without your ProcExplorer loaded ?
