ifdef for suse??

Hi,

Is there any compiler directive I could use to get some code to specifically compile for suse?

like an #ifdef __SUSE__ ?? or something?

nope. the name of the distro is at such a totally different level to C code it's unreal.. you really should be able to find a better solution than wanting to do that.

I need it because ...

my code crashes only on suse if LANG or LC_ALL are not set ... (they're NULL) ...

for some reason, on suse, they're null by default..

i need to set them depending on whether the platform is suse.. (and not for other flavours of linux).. thats why i want some suse directive to have those statemenets compile only on suse..

any better solution than doing a strstr after fopen(etc/issue) ??
