to fix them. Sometimes make errors are not fatal, especially in the presence of a - prefix on a

recipe line, or the -k command line option. Errors that are fatal makefile error 2 are prefixed with the string ***. Error messages are all either prefixed with the name of the

program (usually ‘make’), or, if the error is found in a makefile, the name of the file and line number containing the problem. In the table below, these common make error 2 linux prefixes are left off. ‘[foo] Error NN’ ‘[foo] signal description’ These errors are not really make errors at all. They mean that a program that make invoked as part of a recipe returned a non-0 error code (‘Error NN’), which make interprets as failure, or it exited in some other abnormal fashion (with a signal of some type). gcc error 2 See Errors in Recipes. If no *** is attached to the message, then the sub-process failed but the rule in the makefile was prefixed with the - special character, so make ignored the error. ‘missing separator. Stop.’ ‘missing separator (did you mean TAB instead of 8 spaces?). Stop.’ This means that make could not understand much of anything about the makefile line it just read. GNU make looks for various separators (:, =, recipe prefix characters, etc.) to indicate what kind of line it’s parsing. This message means it couldn’t find a valid one. One of the most common reasons for this message is that you (or perhaps your oh-so-helpful editor, as is the case with many MS-Windows editors) have attempted to indent your recipe lines with spaces instead of a tab character. In this case, make will use the second form of the error above. Remember that every line in the recipe must begin with a tab character (unless you set .RECIPEPREFIX; see Special Variables). Eight spaces do not count. See

Makefile Error 1
takes a minute: Sign up Make / gcc cryptic error 2: how to have more information? up vote 2 down vote favorite I have this C++ project which compiles using a Makefile, and sometimes when (my guess) there are some https://www.gnu.org/s/make/manual/html_node/Error-Messages.html missing includes, I get a cryptic "error 2" message and the make process stops. I suspect the missing includes because this is the third times it happens when I included a non-existent header file. It looks like this: ---- Build tmp/foo.o ---- ---- Build tmp/bar.o ---- ---- Build tmp/toto.o ---- ---- Build tmp/tata.o ---- make: *** [build_Project] Error 2 This is driving me nuts, because even using verbose commands (where each g++ invocation is showed), I can't see anything. I http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5390081/make-gcc-cryptic-error-2-how-to-have-more-information expected the guy to throw up some erroneous messages like "can't find header X" or "undefined reference to Y", but there's nothing. My compiling options for gcc are -O0 -Wall -Werror -Wno-write-strings -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions, if this helps. Ah, and we use the Makefile trick of including dependencies: ifneq ($(strip $(DEPENDS)),) ifneq ($(MAKECMDGOALS),clean) -include $(DEPENDS) endif endif ( see here and here for more information ) Although this is documented stuff, I suspect my problem has something to do with this dependencies inclusion. If you already stumbled on this issue, feel free to comment on this... Thanks in advance. edit: Okay, after a bit of playing, suppressing the - in front of -include $(DEPENDS) gives me some more info (the makefile does stop on the missing included file). make[1]: *** No rule to make target « foo.h », necessary for « tmp/bar.d ». Stop. Now the drawback is that when I launch make for the first time, I get a missing bar.d file message for each dependency file that should be included (which was why we put the - in the first place). Any solution? c++ gcc dependencies makefile share|improve this question edited Mar 22 '11 at 14:40 asked Mar 22 '11 at 10:55 Gui13 5,30353370 1 I think we need to see more of the makefile e.g. how you call gcc- and I tend to show the command compiling for this sort of reason –Mark Mar 22 '11

Many a times, a corresponding make error code error code is also shown, like Code: make: [run] Error 56 (ignored) make: [run] Error 91 (ignored) make: [run] Error 96 (ignored) et al. I tried google'ing as well as searching this forum for what these error codes mean. I know, make does not generate an error code. It displays an error message. But these codes must be referring to something. Is it documented anywhere ? Does anyone have a list for the same, mapping an error code to a message ? Thanks.
