makefile problem

Question

Hello I have a problem while trying to run a makefile.

I change the path where my java install folder is(C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_18\bin), but when I try to run 'make' from my command line I receive : 'make' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I need to use makefiles for my current application.

Answer 1

Run make from the directory it resides in, or add it to your path (press Windows key + Pause/Break > Advanced > Environment Variables > find path under "System variables")

If you don't have make, download it from here. Or maybe you do have it and just need to search your hard drive for make.exe

Answer 2

This is the problem I can't find make.

Answer 3

I really didn't had any make on my hard drive. Thank you for your answers guys. I downloaded it now and hopefully will serve me well.
