Hello,

Is there some way to generate the project makefile created by the integrated IDDE make from the command line? I am trying to set up an automated build system, but to do this from a script I generally need to check out all source files and then run make on them. Is it possible to retrieve the makefile without maintaining it separately from the project file?

Best regards,

Dimitri

Hi,

I know the idde creates a .mak file with the project name automatically (I
think upon building the project).
What I need is a way to create this .mak file without invoking the IDDE,
e.g. from the command line, so that I can make a script for automatic
builds.

Thanks,
Dimitri

P.S. Sorry roland I replied to your e-mail by mistake.

Can I ask a dumb question?

The .MAK file that is generated by the IDE, should that be run with "Make" or "Smake"?  I tried both and neither seemed to work well. Probably a "PEBKAC" error (Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair).

Sure!

Um, that's actually quite a good question, not dumb at all.

smake is the answer.
