[Freeciv-Dev] Re: win32 build error

[Jeremy Adams <caveman@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

MinGW doesn't have a 'make' command exactly. To get it to build in 
Eclipse 3.0, do the following:
From the main menu:
Project -> Properties -> C/C++ Make Project
On the 'Make Builder' tab, unselect the very first checkbox from Use 
Default, and fill in mingw32-make on the line below.
Of course you'll need to have C:\MinGW set in your PATH variable within 
Windows if that's where you installed mingw. Don't know if that will 
help, but I got it to compile in Eclipse that way.
However it did seem that although civserver.exe and civclient.exe got 
built, and I could launch civserver.exe, i couldn't do anything with it, 
nor could I launch civclient.exe.  Probably some mundane detail I missed 
compiling them or with folder setup or something, but at least they 
compiled under Eclipse.
