how to use "make" to build such project as lemur etc. on winxp.

[tianweixin]

Dear all,
 
I often need to build on winxp some projects developed on linux.Usually along with the srcs are some direction files like makefile.in,install,makefile.app.in,install-sh etc.I'm a novice to the "make".and know no much more than going to the top directory of the codes and run make,make install and such.can anyone tell me:
Is "make" able to build any c,c++ code in winxp?
why some codes cannot be built although have writen correct makefile?
 
thanks very much!
 
 
T.Wtsing.
