    Hi

    I was developing a project using DevC++ 4.9.9.2 on my laptop - vista
    I copied all the source and tried to compile it an my desktop - 2000

    It compiles but at the end of compilation the only error I get is

    File - Message
    C:...\Makefile.win [Build Error] [hge-project] 1

    Any ideas on how I should go about debugging this ?

    When I look in the make file, All I see is a list of different files it tried to compile.

    Any thoughts? Thanks

    Stephen

      Error 1 just means that it gave up. You need to post for us your full Basic 3,
      they are covered in the thread titled "Please Read Before Posting a Question"

      You mention you are using Vista - did you follow the special setup steps that
      are in the same "Please Read" thread?

      The "Compiler" tab heavily filters the build output so it only shows certain message types. The full unfiltered log is in the "Compile Log" tab.

      Error 1 merely means that the make utility aborted because one of the commands it invoked returned a non-zero error code. You have to read the log to discover what the command was and whether it emitted a useful message.

      I had this same problem! If you go to the "compile log" it will give you the full log errors. It is probably complaining (Like my system) about not finding "CC1"

      Then, as noted above, go to the: ""Please Read Before Posting a Question" and go to: (6) Post from a user that overcame some WINDOWS VISTA ISSUES

      you'll find the solution as someone else had this same strange problem.
