Hi !,

I have a project that involves 2 files: cro.c and cgic.c

When I compile using RSXWIN32 as follows:

 gcc -Zwin32 -Wall -c -o cro.o cro.c
 gcc -Zwin32 -Wall -c -o cgic.o cgic.c
 gcc -Zwin32 -o cro.exe cro.o cgic.o
-Lc:/djgpp/rsxntdj/lib/mt/libc_app.a

I have no problems, compilation goes ok, my program run ok and life is
beautiful...

But, when I compile using RSX-IDE, problems arise...

For some reason, RSX-IDE generates automatically the following makefile:

all: cro.exe

cro.exe: cro.o cgic.o
 gcc -Zwin32 -o cro.exe cro.o cgic.o
-lc:/djgpp/rsxntdj/lib/mt/libc_app.a

cro.o: cro.c
 gcc -Zwin32 -Wall -c -o cro.o cro.c

cgic.o: cgic.c
 gcc -Zwin32 -Wall -c -o cgic.o cgic.c

I have no idea why the '-l' option is built here (lowercase 'l' and not
uppercase 'L'). That causes a crash in the compilation and the following
message:

c:/djgpp/bin/ld.exe cannot open -lc:/djgpp/rsxntdj/lib/mt/libc_app.a: no
such file or directory ...

When looking at the options of make, I realize that no 'L' uppercase
option exist. Of course I could compile my projects manually (by hand)
but it would be great if that can be done by the makefile. I have been
trying several (a lot !) of combinations in the compiler options (menu
'Ide' ---> 'compiler defaults') to avoid this problem. All of them
without success.

Any suggestions ? or it is simply that make.exe doesn't provide any
solution for this ?

Someone know what is going on here ?

In advance, thank you very much for your help.

Francisco.
