At the beginning of each makefile, I validate my environment variables. The
two invalid_* functions return an error message on failure, or nothing on
success.
# Validate arguments
INVALID_MODE := $(invalid_mode)
INVALID_PLAT := $(invalid_plat)
Then I add a 'valid' goal that uses these calculated values to determine
whether the environment needs to be aborted due to an invalid environment.
# Goals
all: valid
... the build ...
valid:
ifdef INVALID_MODE
echo $(INVALID_MODE)
exit 2
endif
ifdef INVALID_PLAT
echo $(INVALID_PLAT)
exit 2
endif
This works, but is mildly cumbersome. Is there a way to abort make before I
make it to my first goal/target?
