Title: Running $(shell pwd) in makefile.





I have the latest cygwin.  I have a Makefile that I've brought over from my unix platform to build a product under NT.


I have a very basic 


PWD := $(shell pwd)


TOP_DIR := $(PWD)


My path is:


Z:\work\myProj\build


and when I do:


mkdir $(TOP_DIR)\Obj-myProj-app


I get the error message:


mkdir:  cannot make directory:  'Z:workmyProjbuild\Obj-myProg-app


So ($shell pwd) is not adding slashes.  Does this mean that my "shell" is unknown?


thanks in advance.
