Zeus IDE

I am evaluating Zeus. So far I like everything very much (especially the Python scripting).

The only thing I can't get set up to my needs is project building.

I have a "sample" C++ project and a valid makefile. I use the Mingw compiler to make the code. I think I have all the paths set up correctly. I can make the project from the command line (see output below). I cannot make from Zeus. I appear to be invoking the makefile correctly, but I get these process_easy: DuplicateHandle(In) failed (e=6) messages.

Has anybody seen this before???

To do this you would need to setup a workspace and use it to run the make

• Using the Workspace to Configure Third Party Tools

From the output below it appears you have already figured out how to configure theWorkspace so just ignore the above

The DuplicateHandle error has been reported before and from what I can tell this error is caused by the GNU make doing something strange things to the stdout handle. See this link for more details:

To work around to this problem is to wrap the make command inside a batch file like this:
