Makefile "WARNING" but no build...
-
Despite all precautions - I have ( temporary ) lost access to my main program.
I am trying to build from backup and getting this "warning", but no build.
/home/nov25-1/PROJECTS_BACKUP_Dec1/PROJECTS/MDI_BT/A_MDI/A_MDI_BT_MDI_BASE_Nov_30/MDI_BT/MDI_BT/Makefile:209: warning: sub-------SOURCE-mdi-qmake_all] Error 3
Here is the actual text of the problem
I would appreciate some assistance in resolving this.sub-------SOURCE-mdi-qmake_all: FORCE
@test -d ../../SOURCE/mdi/ || mkdir -p ../../SOURCE/mdi/
cd ../../SOURCE/mdi/ && $(QMAKE) -o Makefile /home/nov25-1/PROJECTS_BACKUP_Dec1/PROJECTS/MDI_BT/A_MDI/A_MDI_BT_MDI_BASE_Nov_30/SOURCE/mdi/mdi.pro -spec linux-clang CONFIG+=debug CONFIG+=qml_debug
cd ../../SOURCE/mdi/ && $(MAKE) -f Makefile qmake_all
sub-------SOURCE-mdi: FORCEPS
Is there away to option":makefile" output to "line wrap" ?
I really cannot see the entire lines, unless I copy them. -
That is not a "WARNING". The text is fairly plain, it is an error.
From the manual:
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). See Errors in Recipes.
Since the Makefile recipes are generated from your PRO file the source of the error is in most likely broken input in your PRO file.
Is there away to option":makefile" output to "line wrap" ?
I have no idea what ":makefile" is. However, whether long lines are wrapped or not is a function of the terminal or editor you are using.
You could make reading this output much easier by using shorter, eye-friendly paths.

@AnneRanch addendum
Here is some more info about the "warning / error "
Can somebody PLEASE help me to decipher this .
I do not see any "extra characters" and I certainly did not add such entries into the file.
So far this is only "warning / error " I am getting .PS
The objective of my post is to seek help analyzing the build outputs ,
comments on typos or use of wrong description or terms are superfluous and
DO NOT HELP MUCH. -
As you can see the error is in mdi.pro, line 31.
