I used Visual Basic .NET in for GBA Programming in the past but I switched to eclipse.
I made my Project as makefile projects and supplied my own makefile. You can find the Makefile project type in "Visual C++ Projects->Common".
I don't know if there is an easier way in a form of a add-in or something like that.

Do you still have your makefile for dotNet?

i use visual studio 2005 for my gba development. what i did was the same thing as NoMis said, i set up my makefile-project (not the makefile itself, but the visual studio project) to just call gnu make. and then i applied some voodoo magic to get my warnings and errors translated to vs-style, so i could press f4 to skip to the line in question. that was a sed-script, i think i posted it here on the forum some months ago.

Yes I understand...
but where can I find a tutorial to setup the dotNet with a Makefile?

well, you don't. just go to File->New->Project on the menu. then select "Visual C++ Projects" in the left menu, and select "Makefile Project" on the right. enter your project-name, and hit "Ok". go to the "Application Settings" on the dialog that pops up, and enter "make" in the "Build command line"-field, "clean" in the "Clean commands"-field, and "make clean all" in the "Rebuild command line". now hit "Finish", and you should be set with the project itself.
Next step would be setting up a normal makefile, and there are plenty of documentation on that out there. just google.

I did follow your instruction but I got this msg
| Code: |
------ Build started: Project: Game, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------
Performing Makefile project actions
D:\Programmi\devkitARM\bin\arm-elf-gcc -mthumb-interwork -c *.c
/bin/sh.exe: D:ProgrammidevkitARMbinarm-elf-gcc: command not found

Game - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
---------------------- Done ----------------------
Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped
|
This is my makefile
| Code: |
PROJ=game
CC=arm-elf-gcc
OBJCOPY=arm-elf-objcopy
# the PHONY command allows user to accidentally store a file named "build" in the directory
.PHONY : build
build :
$(DEVKITARM)$(CC) -mthumb-interwork -c *.c
$(DEVKITARM)$(CC) -specs=gba.specs -mthumb-interwork -g *.o -o $(PROJ).elf
$(DEVKITARM)$(OBJCOPY) -v -O binary $(PROJ).elf $(PROJ).gba
@rm -f *.elf
$(VBADVANCE)vba game.gba
.PHONY : clean
clean :
@rm -fv *.o
@rm -fv $(PROJ).gba
|
And these are my system variables
| Code: |
DEVKITARM
D:\Programmi\devkitARM\bin\
MSYS
D:\Programmi\msys1.0\bin
LIBGBA
D:\Programmi\devkitARM\libgba\
VBADVANCE
D:\Programmi\VisualBoyAdvance\
|
does anybody know where the problem is?

Have you tried using forward slashes ('/' not '\') in the system variables?

no, I will try.
Other ideas?

If foreward-slashes doesn't work try double-backslashes. ("D:\\folder\\blah\\etc")

I did resolve.
I did remove the local variables and I wrote these in the makefile, in this way:
/d/programmi/visualboyadvance
