Karsten,
I have tried both and neither works.
It never seems to execute the cd correctly.
With the following definitions
CLASSES=D:\classes
The command
D:\work>make --win32 -f d:\work\squash02\Makefile jar
gives me the following output
cd D:\classes ; jar -cvf d:\cm-build\checkmate-0.7.0\lib\classes.jar squ/
The filename,directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect
make ***[jar] Error 1
D:\work>
All the directories do exist but I just can't see what is wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
John.

Every single command line of the rule will be executed in its own shell
process, thus you end up in the original current dir in the second
statement.
You can put the commands on a single line, seperated by a semicolon:
cd $(CLASSES); jar -cvf $(DISTRIBUTION_DIR)\lib\classes.jar squ/
Or you can use line continuation:
cd $(CLASSES); \
jar -cvf $(DISTRIBUTION_DIR)\lib\classes.jar squ/

Remeber, he's using "make --win32", so /bin/sh doesn't enter into this.
If I try an equivalent makefile using "ls" instead of "jar", "ls" shows
the files in the directory that has been cd'ed to, so it seems like
make is working ok, so I can't explain this behavior.

Don't forget that make is using "sh" to execute the command, so the '\' is
eaten by the shell. You sould use "CLASSES=D:\\classes",
"CLASSES=D:/classes" or even better (as the colon may fool up make if
$(CLASSES) is used somewhere in a dependency list)
"CLASSES=/cygdrive/D/classes".

John,
you should use cygwin path syntax rather than windows syntax, i.e.
/cygwin/d/classes instead of D:\classes (see cygwin documentation/FAQ)
You can use windows pathes, but you have to remember to quote the
backslashes: replace the single backslashes with double backslashes.
This is a shell issue. Try 'man bash', see chapter 'Quoting'.

Hi,
I am not sure if this is the right mailing list but I have a technical
question on using cygwin make.
Is it possible to have something like the following ..
CLASSES=d:/CLASSES
jar:
cd $(CLASSES)
jar -cvf $(DISTRIBUTION_DIR)\lib\classes.jar squ/
I notice that the cd command does not work within the make file. I have
tried d:\classes, and d:/classes but to no avail.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
Regards,
John.
