I was trying to make a bat file that automatically builds my project. I used the JDE to generate the makefile and used VS's nmake to run the makefile.

All went very well the first time, I was getting my cod and jad after the script finished. But when I had to clean the project again. (i.e. deleting *.jad *.jar *.rapc ...) At this point, when I try to build the project again, it was giving me error because it couldn't find the .rapc file.

So my question is, how do I generate this .rapc file using command line otuside the JDE?
It was automatically created as soon as I pressed "Generate makefile and resources" inside the JDE.

C:\svn\bb>nmake /f bbProj.mak

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make 'j2MEUnit\j2MEUnit.rapc'
Stop.

I doubt you can build the rapc file from outside the JDE since it converts your project settings as you define them IN the JDE... To me, it looks like you delete your makefile and search for a way to rebuild it automatically

Someone may know better, though...

Just want to make sure that if I am planning to use the command line to build my project(by using the makefile), then I have to open the JDE everytime and generate the makefile?

If you don't change the settings, I don't see why you delete the file in the first place?
