relative makefiles possible?

[siber_cat314]

Is is possible to change the makefile to allow cygwin to compile with relative directories? I ask because I keep my source code on my SD micro card (to read on the bus ), and I set up a portable cygwin environment. I know that I could just run the configure script again, but I don't want to if I don't have to.

Why? Just give your card reader/ your SD card a certain drive letter (e.g. "R") in the windows device manager; then your card will always have the same drive letter and you therefore won't need relative paths.

That would be great, but when I'm working on the source code on my college's computers, I don't get a say in what drive letter gets assigned.

Just mount the directory in Cygwin:

Code: [Select]

mount c:\\path\\to\\somedir /path/to/mountpoint

Between the above command, and this, I should be able to get this set up. Thanks much.
