[Dev-C++] Dev-C++ on WindowsXP

[Akira B. <ak...@tp...>]

Hi, I got the following message while installing Dev-C++.

"There dosn't seem to be GNU Make file in PATH or in Dev-C++'s Bin path. =
Please make sure that you have GNU Make and adjust Bin settings or =
system PATH environment variable and that make setting in Compiler =
Option contains correct fle name, otherwise you will not be able to =
compile anything."

I have GNU Make, MSYS, MingW.

Could someone tell me what to do please?

In Dev-C++, go to Tools->Compiler Options. Under the programs tab, make 
sure that make points to the right location. For the PATH, go to the 
System Applet in the Control Panel, select the advanced tab, click the 
environment variables button, and find PATH. Make sure PATH includes the 
directory where you have make, which should be the bin folder of 
Dev-C++. I had this same problem when installing MSYS on one of my 
computers.
