a very noob compiling issue

Post by codycox.c » Thu Mar 08, 2012 2:48 am

I downloaded devkitARM and read the tutorial. On the tutorial it said that you have to go to the command prompt and type make to compile. I tried it on the hello_world example and it came back with this error C:\Documents and Settings\kmcox\devkitPro\examples\nds\hello_world>make basename: extra operand 'Settings/kmcox/devkitPro/examples/nds/hello_world' Try 'basename ---help' for more information. make[1]: /c/Documents: No such file or directory make[1]: *** No rule to make target '/c/Documents'. Stop. make: *** [built] Error 2
Please help! If I cannot figure out how to get it to compile I will have to give up on ds programming. I been stuck on this for 2 or 3 days now!

You cannot install the devkitpro toolchains to a directory with spaces. Same thing for project directories. The default install path c:\devkitpro is where you should install.

How did you even manage to install there? The installer forbids paths with spaces :/
