I am an experienced Make user, and i am getting into trouble when using the Win32 version (under Windows NT Server 4 with service pack #3 installed). I am using make to assemble, compile, and link my DOS-based applications. The 'rule' of automatic down-casing of filenames that are 8+3 compliant does not seem to work properly in $(wildcard ... ) function. I am using this and it would be natural for this function to work in concordance with the rest of make. I have read the README.DOS file, i have set the FNCASE environment variable in my command processor's environment, within my makefile, and through parameters. But I cannot get this to work as expected. It seems that $(wildcard ... ) is on its own. The fact is that some DOS tools (Borland's Turbo Link, etc.) create files in upper case, while my editor works in lower case & upper case (it's a Win32 editor), etc. All of this case-dependent behaviour should work ok, at least theoretically. Does anybody made this all work under WinNT 4? Can you tell me how can i make all of this work correctly? Thank you.
