Subject: if construct doesn't work in makefile
Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2004 11:15:32 -0000

Hi,

  In my make file I am trying to check whether a directory exists or not
then set a path differently if doesn't exist.
  I am using cygwin installed on windows 2000.
  The if construct I have is as follows.

  if test [-dc:/tools]; then DRIVE = c:/tools; else DRIVE = c:/altTools; fi

 pls help me out.

Regards,
sitaram
