Compilation Using aCC

[Prashun Gupta]

We have newly created an environment for aCC and are using nmake ,a compilation tool. When we are compiling the program through nmake it is giving a message
make: don't know how to make
Can you all suggest some points
Thanks

I'm guessing that you makefile doesn't know how to process a suffix like .cpp or .C++.
If you attach your makefile and the error we can probably help.

Hello
This is my makefile

include $(VROOT)/ancm/cilcpprules.mk

/* in HPUX10.20 C++ compiler, if a compiling processor is PA-RISC 2.0
we must use +DAportable to insure a compatibility, otherwise,
we can't run the binary on PA-RISC 1.1 like WS or other I series */

if "$(HPPA)" != "2.0"
CCFLAGS = -gdem -g
else
CCFLAGS += -D$(CUST)
end

COMMON_src=sched.C schedDBObj.C setConfigReqLite_v.C

.SOURCE.h : include $(ALLINCLS_NOACO)

.SOURCE.C : src

sched :: $(COMMON_SRC) ../lib/libipclink.a ../lib/libmsgifc.a $(ALLLIBS_NOACO)

Okay, next step is to do a make -p and carefully examine all the suffix's and rules
to see if they are correct. If you have changed the makefile, make absolutely certain that the action lines beneath a target (possibly in your include file as well) always start with a single
e.g.
$(PROG) : $(OBJECTS) $(LIBES1)
$(CC) $(LDFLAGS) $(OBJECTS) -L$(LDIR) -o $(PROG)
strip $(PROG).

I seen one space in the action line kill an otherwise perfectly good make file.

Hope some of this helps...
