asked on How to build c program using make in mingw environment?
I have simple ex1.c that prints a line on the screen.
I get attached build error.
I create attached makefile but still build error. make utitlity is not using my makefile. I specify gcc compiler but it's using some makefile that has cc compiler command.
How do I buld this simple c program with make utility that comes with mingw?

You need to be running the bash shell that comes with Mingw. Execute the commands in that shell.

I removed .txt extension from the makefile I had created. Then, it worked from windows command window.
If i use bash shell then I don't need to create my own makefile?
I invoked bash application from MinGW\msys\1.0\bin. That's how to run bash shell?

bash.exe"--3.1$
bash.exe"--3.1$
bash.exe"--3.1$can you post a picture?
it is some time ago but if i remember rightly of my last mingw installation, they added a menu item into start menu where you could open a bash shell command window.
are you familar with using bash shell? or any other shell?
if not, i would strongly recommend to using an IDE.
