[erlang-questions] Which On Windows

[Michael Scharrer]

Hello together,

may it could help with my following output "where mt" on Windows 10

user_1@REDACTED ~/erlbuild/otp
$ where mt
C:\cygwin64\bin\mt.exe


An then I call mt to test it, which looks like the beam.smp.dll error during compile.

user_1@REDACTED ~/erlbuild/otp
$ mt
usage: mt [-V] [-f device] operation [count]


Regards
Michael

I suspect that you may have another command named "mt" that has higher
precedence in your PATH. Run "which -a mt" to see what the output is.

Thanks,

Minor point Luke--on Windows it's "where" not which.

The build environment is Cygwin, so which is the correct command to
use. I'm not even sure if "where" works within Cygwin - probably not,
as the PATH is in the wrong format. The same applies to a MSYS2
environment.

Since "which" couldn't find the correct mt.exe executable, that points
to something in the original poster's environment.

Thanks,
Luke
