Which version of make do you run? Could you, please, use the appended
test.makefile for the following tests:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[583] make -f test.makefile yes
then yes
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[584] make -f test.makefile no
else no
The output shall appear as given in the example.
Best regards, Michael.
.SILENT:
%:
$(if $(findstring yes, $(MAKECMDGOALS)), \
@echo then $(MAKECMDGOALS), \
@echo else $(MAKECMDGOALS))
