Re: Can't Get Program To Compile--Help

[Ivan Vučica]

 I have recently installed GNUstep on an acquaintance's Windows  
machine and, just like on mine, have not had issues.

Check for a conflicting installation of mingw (such as that found in  
devcpp or codeblocks, or standalone mingw) might interfere. Uninstall  
other languages and development environments to check and fix this.  
You should also check the contents of your PATH environment variable;  
look up on the web how to do this.

Using full paths in #include statements is invalid; never do this. You  
can tell the compiler where to find headers by passing - 
Iwhateverrelativeorfullpathyouneed. This argument can be added in  
GNUmakefile in OBJC_FLAGS, if I remember correctly. Why is this  
necessary? NSObject.h depends and includes additional headers which  
are referred to using relative paths, and hence they are again  
unfindable.
