Pankaj,

The "parsing" you mentioned may have to do with the fact that SN
ignores the backslashes in the windows path as per UNIX. Try typing
the full path to gcc in the SN build settings, ie.

C:\cygwin\bin\gcc

Of course the backslashes are ignored since here they actually mean \c
\b and \g and consequently the command for gcc is reduced to
C:cygwinbingcc. 

So if you retype the command to be C:\\cygwin\\bin\\gcc it is parsed
correctly.

Congratulations on the observation!!


So can one of the gurus suggest when this cross platform issue can be
addressed. More to the point, why has this not been raised before???

Regards,

J.
