Commence before first target. Stop.” error?

Make (or NMAKE or whatever flavour of make you are using) can be quite picky about the format of makefiles - check that you didn't actually edit the file in any way, e.g. Changed line endings, spaces tabs, etc.

– Amir Rachum May 26 '10 at 12:02 1 What's a *. Mak-file? Not even wotsit.org/list.asp?al=M mentions it.

What are you trying to do? What exactly is this about? If this is about make, then which incarnation of it are you using?

There are plenty of makes. – phresnel May 26 '10 at 12:02 The question does not appear to have anything to do with c or c++, so I edited the tags. I could do with and indication of just what build system you are using, however.

Try make --version or check with the make manpage. – dmckee May 26 '10 at 12:39.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
