Hi!
I am an experienced Make user, and i am getting into trouble when using the
Win32 version (under Windows NT Server 4 with service pack #3 installed).
I am using make to assemble, compile, and link my DOS-based applications.
The 'rule' of automatic down-casing of filenames that are 8+3 compliant
does not seem to work properly in $(wildcard ... ) function. I am using
this and it would be natural for this function to work in concordance with
the rest of make.
I have read the README.DOS file, i have set the FNCASE environment variable
in my command processor's environment, within my makefile, and through
parameters. But I cannot get this to work as expected. It seems that
$(wildcard ... ) is on its own.
The fact is that some DOS tools (Borland's Turbo Link, etc.) create files
in upper case, while my editor works in lower case & upper case (it's a
Win32 editor), etc.
All of this case-dependent behaviour should work ok, at least
theoretically. Does anybody made this all work under WinNT 4?
Can you tell me how can i make all of this work correctly?
Thank you.
Best Wishes,
Ezequiel
