Thanks, actually my biggest problem is matching a text string in a case-insensitive way:
ifeq (KSRT, $(findstring KSRT, $(TARGET)))
Do I have to come up here with something ugly like:
$(shell echo $(TARGET) | tr 'A-z' 'a-z')
Also, I'm not sure what are the user-defined
functions everyone keeps talking about on this list.
We use gmake 3.81 (+some patch) on Linux/HP-UX here.
And for the spaces after commas - the whitespace after
the commas seems to be stripped or am I wrong here:
bolinux72:make-test {86} cat Makefile2
CC=gcc
ifeq ($(CC), gcc)
$(warning OK)
endif
all:
bolinux72:make-test {87} gmake -f Makefile2
Makefile2:3: OK
gmake: Nothing to be done for `all'.
Regards
Alex
