I can't seem to get GNU Make 3.77 (djgpp v2.02) to run commands longer than
126 characters. The readme file seems to indicate that it should be able to
but when I try I always get an error -1 back from make. I have tried using
the bash port but it gives the same result. I running under NT 4.0 SP 4 and
my environment has about 3 kb. The second set is just to show that the
compiler will produce some out put when given a non-existent source file.
The longer command works fine when run directly from the NT command prompt.
I have set the DJDIR and DJGPP environment variables as follows:
DJDIR=d:\djgpp
DJGPP=d:\djgpp\djgpp.env


Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Leslie

Here is a really simple example (the compiler is the IBM visual age C++
AS/400 cross compiler):
-------begin Makefile-------

CC=iccas

foobar:
<tab>$(CC) -o d:/thisisareallyreallylongpathtotheobjectdirectory/foobar.o \
<tab>d:/thisisareallyreallylongdirectorytothesourcefile/src.cpp

foobar2:
<tab>$(CC) -o d:/objs/foobar.o d:/src/src.cpp

-------end Makefile-------

-------begin command/response------
U:\>make foobar
iccas -o d:/thisisareallylongpathtotheobjectdirectory/foobar.o \
d:/thisisareallylongdirectorytothesourcefile/src.cpp
make.exe: *** [foobar] Error -1

U:\>make -f make2 foobar2
iccas -o d:/objs/foobar.o d:/src/src.cpp
