handling make-files

[MoonKid]

It is the first time I am interestet in makefiles.

1. Is there a way to import makefiles (nmake, gnumake, etc) to a cbp-file?

2. Is there a way to export a cbp-file to a special makefile-type (nmake, gnumake, etc)?


The current problem is that there is a project (7zip with LZMA en-/decoder, etc) that comes with MSVC projectfiles and nmake-makefiles. But my own project is build with mingw and that is why I need to build the 7zip-lib with mingw, too.

You could always try Eranif's application, LiteEditor, which can be found here.
With it, you can then

Automatically imports MSVC workspace/projects and converts them to GNU based makefile

And then the fact that LiteEditor is a

Makefile based build system

Your project is exported to makefile format, which you can then use manually with MinGW, or ofcourse from within the program itself.

I don't need a new IDE. LiteEditor doesn't help me to "import" a nmake-file as a project and "export" it as a gnumake-file. Thats what I need.
