NMAKE Fatal Error U1035 (original) (raw)

syntax error : expected ':' or '=' separator

Remarks

Either a colon (:) or an equal sign (=) was expected.

To fix by checking the following possible causes

1. A colon did not follow a target.
2. A colon and no space (such as a:) followed a single-letter target. NMAKE interpreted it as a drive specification.
3. A colon did not follow an inference rule.
4. A macro definition was not followed by an equal sign.
5. A character followed a backslash (\) that was used to continue a command to a new line.
6. A string appeared that did not follow any NMAKE syntax rule.
7. The makefile was formatted by a word processor.
