Installation Problems (Newbie Question)

by Peter Mendham <pdm104.NOCANNEDMEAT@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Dec 1, 2004 at 03:52 PM

Dear all,

I am attempting to install PM3 on a Windows XP machine and I'm having a 
few problems.  I have cygwin installed and working (I already use its 
gcc for other things).  I have unzipped the bootstrap files and the 
source files.  The source files I have placed in "C:\Program Files\", 
the unzipping process obviously created a "pm3" directory.  Inside this 
pm3 directory I unzipped the bootstrap files, thus creating "C:\Program 
Files\pm3\pm3-NT386GNU".

At a command prompt in directory "C:\Program Files\pm3\pm3-NT386GNU" I 
setup my path to include only the cygwin gcc tools ("C:\cgywin\bin") so 
as not to confuse things.  I ran make, which did a whole bunch of stuff 
and generated a bunch of executables in different directories (it 
appeared to run the "boot" section of the makefile fine).  Then it comes 
to the "packages" section of the makefile.  At this point it grinds to a 
halt saying:

--- building in NT386GNU ---

m3build: cannot locate an m3makefile
make: *** [packages] Error 1

I check to see if there is an m3makefile in the "C:\Program 
Files\pm3\m3config\src" directory, which there is.  Now I'm stumped.

I'm very new to the whole Modula-3 thing, I have done a fair amount of 
programming in other languages (mainly C/C++/Java) but not a lot on 
unix-type platforms.  If in doubt, assume that I don't know something 
obvious!  Any suggestions would be greatly welcome.

TIA

Peter
