in thread makefile.mk is missing with Perl 5.34.0 distro.

... would it work if i rename make.exe to gmake.exe

The GNU make utility that I use to build perl on Windows is called "make.exe". It's in my PATH and I always invoke it simply as "make".
I've never had any problems with that. That should be fine - unless it's not really GNU make.

Cheers,
Rob

    Hi Rob,

    Thank you for the reply. I have renamed "make.exe" to "gmake.exe" and it seems working.

    Cheers!

      This would indicate that there's something (the batch file ?) in your build process that requires your GNU make utility to be called "gmake". However, this is not a general requirement.
      Anyway, I'm delighted that you've persevered with this and got it working.

      Cheers,
      Rob
