a colleague is writing a makefile that will test a setting for an architecture variable that might have a number of different values, so he obviously wants some kind of if/then/else based on simple string comparison. one of these possibilities will the an unset variable (empty string) identifying a native build.
oddly, he told me that he can't do a string compare against an empty string and had to resort to "ifndef". what's the standard way to implement what's equivalent to a case structure based on string compares, with an "else" equivalent at the bottom? thanks. rday _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
