Hi,
I had problems with the gcc when the path contained spaces (as it seems
to be in your case).
HTH,

Hi,
I meant the following path you posted:
C:/Java/eclipse/projects/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.cdt. make
core/specs.c
There is a space between make and core (there should be a dot - at least
it is the case for my installation).
Regards,
Stefan

I checked my specs.c and specs.cpp - both are empty ...
You could try to execute the statement
gcc -E -P -v -dD
C:/Java/eclipse/projects/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.cdt. make
core/specs.c
from your console - may this will give you some hint about the problem.
