I thought they were almost the same, with different syntax. derive MYVAR from (X86 ? "a" : ) derive MYVAR from (PPC ? "b" : ) By completely omitting the else clause (as opposed to setting an empty string) it says on X86 set MYVAR to "a" on PPC set MYVAR to "b" ... on unknown architectures MYVAR is undefined That fits what I need to do without a lot of nested if statements. _______________________________________________ kbuild-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kbuild-devel
