The contents of my .project file are shown below. My path contains
C:\GNAT\2007\bin;C:\GNAT\2007\libexec\gcc\pentium-mingw32msv\4.1.3
right at the start with c:\mingw\bin later on.

What is a .gb_project file? I don't have one of those.

As I mentioned in my other message, in the <buildCommand> section
there is a field for <arguments> to the gnatbench builder. Should
there be something in there that will change the directory to the
location of the makefile?

Again, as I mentioned, if I run this command from within the folder
that contains the makefile, it works. If it is run from elsewhere, it
doesn't work (which makes perfect sense since the makefile itself is
not identified in the command line by a -f option). So why is
Eclipse/Gnatbench not changing to the makefile folder before running
the command?
