Hi,

Would like to have your help.

I am a new comer to the world of GNUstep. I am encountering an error message
while trying to build my first app through Project Center GUI. Attached is
the screen shot of the error message. Details are given below:

Earlier, I had downloaded and installed the latest GNUstep_System (v 23),
GNUstep_Core (v 23.1) and GNUstep_devel (v 1.0) in this order, in my Windows
XP system.

I had downloaded some sample apps and was successfully able to build them
from the Shell prompt. Next I had downloaded Project Center (0.5.0) source
and successfully built it from the Shell prompt.The problem started when I
tried to build a sample app from the Project Center GUI. The error messages
indicate that the Project Center build environment is not able to probably
map the variable "GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES" variable properly, Because the line
numbers of the error messages from GNUMakefile indicate that
GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES variable is not pointing to the correct path where
"common.make", "aggregate.make" and "application.make" exists.

I have already checked that these files ("common.make", "aggregate.make" and
"application.make") exists in my GNUStep install directory at:
C:\GNUStep\GNUStep\System\Library\Makefiles.

The only problem is that I don't yet know where exactly to check the
contents of the variable "GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES", and to set it correctly ?

Also, I am able to build this UI app successfully from the Shell prompt.

Please let me know if I am making an mistake somewhere, and advise.

Thanks,
Jaideep.
