[SOLVED] Re: cygwin's [g]make 3.81 seems not to understand conditionals

I've got (and attached) this simple Makefile that checks the build platform of a machine.

Here's the cut-and-pasted content of the Makefile:

PLATFORM=$(shell uname -s | cut -f 1 -d " " | cut -f 1 -d "_");

Try removing the trailing semicolon. It is not removed by make, so PLATFORM ends up being "CYGWIN;".

Bingo. That did it!


So does that mean that make 3.80 was wrong then?

Thank you very much!

Best Regards,
