Re: make and .exe targets



Thanks for the response :)

I knew the code compiled because I was able to compile and run it outside of
make. I just wanted a very simple 'HELLO' application to work before I move
to more complicated code.

As far as I can tell I followed the suffix rules for make and defined the
target rule correctly.  The problem seems to be in ld.exe when called from
make.

My personal e-mail is working again (thank goodness!) I don't like having to
use work e-mail for personal stuff.

Thanks,
John Fortin
