[SOLVED] [Makefile] Run command conditionally in target?

littlebigman · 11-25-2010, 04:05 PM

Hello

I'm learning about how to write Makefiles, and am a bit lost at how to run a command in a target depending on the value of a variable.

What I'm trying to do, is run "strip" only if the user is running a given version of a C compiler.

Here's the code:

Code:

$(LUA_T): $(LUA_O) $(LUA_A)
        $(CC) -o $@ $(MYLDFLAGS) $(LUA_O) $(LUA_A) $(LIBS)
        #FDPIC ELF binaries can be stripped, but not FLAT binaries
        $(if($(CROSS),bfin-linux-uclibc-), \
         $(STRIP) $@
        ;)

Does someone know the correct way to do this?

Thank you.

Code:

$(LUA_T): $(LUA_O) $(LUA_A)
        $(CC) -o $@ $(MYLDFLAGS) $(LUA_O) $(LUA_A) $(LIBS)
ifeq ($(CROSS),bfin-linux-uclibc-)
        #FDPIC ELF binaries can be stripped, but not FLAT binaries
        $(STRIP) $@
endif
