Need help with following problem.
I have very simple makefile with following rule:
test:
@echo "this is a test"
@if [ "1" = "1" ] ; then \
echo "working" ; \
fi ;
If I do a make on linux I correctly see ...
this is a test
working
But in cygwin when I make using same makeifle I see this ...
"this is a test"
"1" was unexpected at this time.
make.exe: *** [test] Error 0x1
The MAKE_MODE is set to unix. Does anybody
know why the make is failing to parse this? I checked
the newsgroup and manual don't see what is causing
this to fail.
thanks
