Using emake

[John Trevor]

Hi, I just started trialing EL and am having an issue with emake.
Can emake be used with any makefile or must it be used with one generated by BCB? Are there any special lines emake is looking for in the makefile?

Usually it works with make files created with C++Builder IDE or with
BPR2MAK.exe tool.

It check for the following XML fields:

1)... LFLAGS (Linker Flags);
2)... PROJECT (Project File) - Only C++Builder 5/6
3)... Complex search for Project File - Only C++Builder 2006

Thanks for that -- I had tried adding the PROJECT - but that didn't work. After a bit of testing I found you needed to have a BPF file as well. Once I had created one and turned on EUREKALOG I was able to use emake.
