It's not an issue with the makefile, coz' it executes properly when run independently. It compiles my source file and creates a .exe.
*This is my makefile*: all: hello hello: helloWorld.o gcc helloWorld.o -o hello helloWorld.o: helloWorld.c gcc -c helloWorld.c clean: rm -rf *o hello *Now, I want to trigger this makefile through Maven. The compilation will be done by the makefile and not Maven. Maven should just trigger it.* When I run 'mvn install', This is what I see in the target folder: http://maven.40175.n5.nabble.com/file/n5666817/untitled.bmp It creates a .jar file.
