Dear GNU-Team,
please can you give an example for the usage of the 'if' function ("$(if condition,then-part[,else-part])", see chapter 8.5 of the document "make.html" for "GNU make Version 3.80").
I wanted to set a variable depending on another variable to different values.
The wanted statement should be:
VAR2 = $(if ??? $(VAR1), S1, s, $(if ??? $(VAR1), M, m)) # ??? means: don't know!
The alternate statement was:
ifeq "$VAR1" "S1"
VAR2 = s
endif
ifeq "$VAR1" "M"
VAR2 = m
endif
Possible a similar example should be inserted also in the document "make.html".
Many thanks and best regards,
Reinhard Häusler
