Subject: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string; make: *** [subdirs] Error 2
I was installing on Cygwin 1.5.13 and got the following error during "make". Show quoted text
>Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string >make: *** [subdirs] Error 2
Being a layman in make, I played around Makefile and found a solution. Please see the attach file and search for "HACK" to see my hack. The problem is that there was an environment variable "LIB" in my PC. The line $(NOECHO)cd XML-SAX-Base && $(MAKE) -f $(FIRST_MAKEFILE) all $(PASTHRU) is expanded to become cd XML-SAX-Base && make -f Makefile all LIB="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\mfc\lib;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\lib;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\SDK\v1.1\Lib\" LIBPERL_A="libperl.a" LINKTYPE="dynamic" PREFIX="" OPTIMIZE="" PASTHRU_DEFINE="" PASTHRU_INC="" The error of unterminated quotes is regarding to the LIB argument. I wonder if you can modify the MakeFile.PL to fix the problem. Thanks a lot.
