`make` creates non-executable example files #1098

I'm trying to compile the example files, performing the steps below, as described in README.md:

$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --enable-module-schnorrsig --enable-module-ecdh --enable-examples
$ make 
$ make check 

But the files generated are not executable.

....
-rw-rw-r--  1 user01 user01  5432 Apr  2 18:24 ecdh.c
-rw-rw-r--  1 user01 user01 26376 Apr  2 19:32 ecdh_example-ecdh.o
-rw-rw-r--  1 user01 user01  6026 Apr  2 18:24 ecdsa.c
-rw-rw-r--  1 user01 user01 16896 Apr  2 19:32 ecdsa_example-ecdsa.o
....

I tried changing chmod +x ecdh_example-ecdh.o, for example, but got the error:

Failed to execute process './ecdh_example-ecdh.o'. Reason:
exec: unknown error (errno was 8)
The file './ecdh_example-ecdh.o' is marked as an executable but could not be run by the operating system.

You're looking at the object files, not the executables. The executables are in the root directory (not in examples/); look for ecdh_example, ecdsa_example, schnorr_example.

Yes, they are in the root directory. My mistake. Thanks for quick reply.
