Problem compiling HelloWorld

[Damion]

I have everything in the right place but when I hit make i get this

Code: Select all

"make" : make : Command not found
"make" : *** [build] Error 127

I am new to "make" so if this is a noob question sorry in advance.

This one is normally caused by having DOS style paths in the devkitPro environment variables. The standard settings are

Code: Select all

DEVKITPRO=/c/devkitPro
DEVKITPPC=/c/devkitPro/devkitPPC

Note the msys style paths, forward slashes and /<drive>/ instead of <drive>:\

1. How did you install the toolchain in the first place?

2. Which OS are you using?

Bit of an odd one really. Your initial problem showed that make was actually running but failing in a way that suggests the environment variables were wrong.

Click on Start->run

Type cmd in the box & click ok.

In the dos window type this

Code: Select all

set > env.txt
start env.txt

You should see notepad open with something similar to this.

Copy & paste that here inside code tags.

You've managed to remove the msys tools from your system path.

Code: Select all

Path=C:\devkitPro\msys\bin; ...

It should be in the path at the start, at least before any section that contains spaces.
