Autogenerated Makefiles

Hi,

I am new to CCS, I am working on an application we inheriated from another company we purchased after they shut down.

I was successful in importing the project into CCS4 and getting the application to compile.  But being the anal person that I am I wanted to get all the compiler output under one folder.  The old project was setup to send output to to {PROJECT_ROOT}\Out.  CCS has a system macro PROJECT_BUILD_DIR that I cannot seem to edit.  Thus I decided I would try to direct all compiler output to ${PROJECT_BUILD_DIR}. 

Upon trying this I got a make error "No rule to make target `Obj/boot2812.obj'.  In looking into the makefiles I see are still references to the old .\Out folder.  I have looked through all the project setttings I could find and I cannot find any setttings that tell makefile generator where to look for files.

It seems to me the makefile generator made a lot of decisions when the project was first imported and there does not seem to be any dialogs to alter these decisions.  I don't really want to resort to editing my own makefile.  Any ideas??

Thanks

    How did you do this? Did you add that macro in the "Directory Specifier" section in the Build Properties?

    Yes.  I tried both the macro and a hardcoded path, neither worked.

    Did you just set the -fr option or did you do it for all of them on that page?

    I only set it for the -fr and -fs, they were the only ones that had entries when I started making changes.

    FYI- I attached a renamed copy of the generated makefile.

    -fr is a deprecated option with newer CGT version (including what ships with v4). Try setting -ft and -ff also and see if this helps.
