Description pabristow 2014-02-06 12:05:07 UTC 
Adding a linker file whose specification *includes a space*, for example "Program files", should be enclosed in double quotes.

Adding any file in c:\program files to a configuration.xml 

         <linkerLibItems>
            <linkerLibFileItem>C:/Program Files/mingw-builds/x64-4.8.1-win32-seh-rev5/mingw64/lib/libopcodes.a</linkerLibFileItem>
          </linkerLibItems>



gcc     -o dist/Debug/MinGW-Windows/filename_with_spaces build/Debug/MinGW-Windows/main.o /C/Program Files/mingw-builds/x64-4.8.1-win32-seh-rev5/mingw64/lib/libopcodes.a
gcc.exe: error: c:/Program: No such file or directory
gcc.exe: error: Files/mingw-builds/x64-4.8.1-win32-seh-rev5/mingw64/lib/libopcodes.a: No such file or directory

Adding quotes around the file specification in the configuration.xml 'cures' this.

PS I was confused in trying to add this file, but this confused me further!
