error couldn't create project directory

<< < (2/3) > >>

oBFusCATed:
Have you tried to mount (map) the network path to a drive?

p.s. there is a chance that gcc and gdb won't recognize networked/samba paths

PizzaNapoli:
No, I didn't mapped it.

But normally it's not nescessary. If I create the directories manually I can work, compile and link without problems.

So the gcc compiler works with UNC path.

The problem is only while creating a new project, f.ex. from a template like console application, irrlicht, ogre etc.

PizzaNapoli:
So really no chance to use UNC paths  :( ?

oBFusCATed:
Why do you want to have your project on a samba server?
Sharing with another person/computer?

PizzaNapoli:
Yes, share with others or mainly with myself  :D
In the office, at home, everywhere where I am I have access to the server.

It's working with driver letter mapping. But I don't like that. It's very old fashioned for me.

Btw: It's not a samba server it's just a Windows XP computer.
