U1064 MAKEFILE not found and no target specified
The NMAKE command line did not specify a makefile or a target, and the current
directory did not contain a file named MAKEFILE.
NMAKE requires either a makefile or a command-line target. To make a makefile
available to NMAKE, either specify the /F option or place a file named MAKEFILE in
the current directory. NMAKE can create a command-line target by using an inference
rule if a makefile is not provided.
U1065 invalid option option
The specified option is not a valid option for NMAKE.
U1069 no match found for wildcard filename
There is no file that matches the given filename, which was specified using one or more
wildcards (* and ?).
A target file specified using a wildcard must exist on disk.
U1070 cycle in macro definition macroname
The given macro definition contained a macro whose definition contained the given
macro. Circular macro definitions are invalid.
For example, the following macro definitions:
ONE=$(TWO)
TWO=$(ONE)
cause the following error:
cycle in macro definition 'TWO'
U1071 cycle in dependency tree for target targetname
A circular dependency exists in the dependency tree for the given target. The given target
is a dependent of one of the dependents of the given target. Circular dependencies are
invalid.
U1072 cycle in include files : filename
The given file includes a file that eventually includes the given file. Inclusions (using the
!INCLUDE preprocessing directive) cannot be circular.
U1073 don’t know how to make targetname
The specified target does not exist, and there is no command to execute or inference rule
to apply.
One of the following may be a solution:
u Check the spelling of the target name.
u If targetname is a pseudotarget, specify it as a target in another description block.
u If targetname is a macro invocation, be sure it does not expand to a null string.
