Visual Studio/Momentics conflict

Hello,

When I try to run the Visual Studio nmake command from the prompt, it
reports "Invalid option ‘-’ "

It seems to only do this on computers of mine that have Momentics installed.

Has anyone else come across the wierd incompatibility?

Cheers,
Robert.

This is due to a conflict with the MAKEFLAGS environment variable. (GNU
make and nmake don’t like to share). I believe this is documented in
the release notes.

Thank you Chris. I will look into it.

This was indeed the problem. Unset MAKEFLAGS before I use nmake, and it
works fine.

Thank you,
Robert.
