I exported an nmake makefile from VS and produced my makefile manually. This was easy because the project was smaller then. The nmake makefile is useful for learning about the compiler and linker flags to be used. I think its not that hard to handcraft your makefile from the nmake template (even for moderately larger projects). The one thing that I couldn't solve this way was producing the dependencies. Luckily I found a Tcl-script called MkDepend which helped me to do it. Cygwin comes with a tcl-shell so everything was there. I only had to do some minor changes to MkDepend to make it behave like I wanted. If you can use it, please mail me; I will then send it to you. Beware: its terribly slow ;-) (cause of tcl) but it works good enough (at least for me). If that is not what you need, please ignore me. cheers, andreas -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
