Could someone tell me what I could change the 'Build Invocation'
preference in my C/C++ project to to at least get the program to 'rebuild
all'.
I have Cygwin installed, and have 'cygwin/bin' in the PATH environment
variable, so the command "make" does invoke the 'make' tool. However, how
do I pass the directory of the current project to the 'make' program , from
Eclipse ?
(simply putting 'make' as Build Invocation terminates with make telling
me there is not makefile, as it is probably looking in the home for the
administrator)
make $1 did not work (a complete guess) i tried some other methods, but
couldn't figure it out.
Hope this isn't some kind of incredibly trivial question...
thanks

Actually i suppose simply typing in the pathname for each project's
Properties>>Build Invocation is fine, but NOW I have another problem:
So it finds and uses 'make' alright, and spits out:
Makefile.am
configure.in
bootstrap.sc
acconfig.h
and some other blank files like "readme" etc.
So then it tries to use
sh -c .bootstrap.sc && sh -c ./configure && sh -c 'touch -m configure'
but can't find the files folder /usr/autotool/devel/bin/aclocal, autoheader
or autoconf
this is because there is no such "usr/autotool" directory in cygwin. Is
automake/autotool a program I can get from somewhere? Does this mean it is
impossible to compile using Windows & Cygwin? I understand that Windows is
currently not formally supported, but if anyone could help it would be
great. I want to at least know if Windows support for Eclipse is in too
early a stage for me to be trying this...

The latest cygwin ships with autotools (autoconfig, automake, ...).
autotools are used to facilitate porting to different UNIX like platforms.
You can always download them from gnu.org.
