'test' is not recognized as an internal or external command

I am now 100% sure that test.exe comes with mingw. And it is normal, because test can be found only on Linux( and other Unix flavors ). It is used mainly for shell scripting.

ok, thanks for your help, i will try some other things.

Well, I am almost sure this is a compatibility issue( permissions, etc ).

When you run make, it will look at the exit code of test.exe. This is how it knows a dir exists or not.

Maybe you can find something relevant on other sites.

i deleted absolutely everything related to qt and mingw, and redownloaded it from trolltech, and it seems to be working now. for some reason i have a knack for finding ways to make qt break on all my os's. i always have weird problems on os x as well.

anyways, thank you so much for your help.
