[Resolved] Issues with "build order" function on Windows 7

[Coder1]

Hi,

I was getting an issue earlier today where I have a workspace containing two projects, a static library "Engine" and a executable project which links to that. I setup a build order so that the Engine project is built before the executable. However I was always getting the following make error:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/sh: ..\.build-debug\Engine: No such file or directory
mingw32-make[1]: *** ["..\.build-debug\Engine"] Error 1
mingw32-make.exe: *** [All] Error 2

Turns out that the makefile is creating "..\.build-debug\" using a command line tool "makedir.exe" which resides in the CodeLite installation folder.

To fix the issue I added the installation folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeLite" to my system path, allowing make to pick up the "makedir.exe"

I hope this helps anyone else who also encounters the same issue.

Cheers.
