GNU make conflicts with another make program

Post by mdiaz.tello »

I am not sure if this is the proper place to put this, but I figure that make is used by the IDE so this is the best place to ask. In any case, after installing the NetBurner software, I installed a copy of Borland C++ builder. The thing is, borland has their own make utility, and it changed something to cause its make to be the default one. Is there an environmental variable that I can change to point eclipse back to using GNU make? Is it possible to have both make utilities co-existing without problems?

Thanks for all the help on previous questions: you guys have been quick to reply and very helpful!

I had the same problem, you can fix it by changing your PATH environment variable so that the NetBurner entries come before the Borland entries. Especially make sure that "C:\Nburn\gcc-m68k\bin;C:\Nburn\gcc-m68k\msys\1.0\bin;" comes before "C:\PROGRA~1\Borland\CBUILD~1\Bin;".
