Windows XP and make 3.80
Hello People, I'm attaching a very simple makefile that have some problem with command interpreter on Windows XP. I haven't found something on the documentation and i'm still trying to figure out if is it there a problem on my set up. Command: make clean OS: Windows XP version 2002, service pack 2 make version: 3.80 It interprets rmdir /q /s lib as rmdir /q, rmdir /s and rmdir lib with errors. I'll appreciate any feedback! Thank's and best regards, Pablo YX Wireless S.A. www.yx.cl # clean - deletes everything that can be rebuilt maintgt: @echo main target .PHONY: clean clean: @echo make version 3.80 and Windows XP 2002 SP2 rmdir /q /s lib ___ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make

Do you have an rmdir.exe program somewhere on your PATH? Or perhaps you have a Unixy shell sh.exe somewhere? If so, Make will invoke those Unix-style rmdir commands in preference to the cmd.exe built-in. If you want to be sure the cmd's rmdir is invoked, I suggest to modify your Makefile as follows: clean: @echo make version 3.80 and Windows XP 2002 SP2 cmd.exe /c rmdir /q /s lib ___ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
