Subject: bccwin32 ruby build - $(icondirs) in makefile.sub


Hi,

Lines 31 of bcc32\makefile.sub is not well.

!ifndef icondirs
!ifdef ICONDIRS
icondirs=$(ICONDIRS)
!endif
!endif
!ifdef icondirs
icondirs=$(icondirs:\=/)     # <-------------# (31)
iconinc=-I$(icondirs: = -I)
!endif

I tried to blame Borland's 'make' and had a helpful reply
to my dumb-user post.

Hope the maintainer (or someone) will know what to do.

I just chopped the line and used '/' instead of '\'
in icondirs=... to get me by.
(It was there; I thought I may as well use it !!)


BTW, the documentation for
  GNU make Version 3.77
  by Richard M. Stallman and Roland McGrath

runs to half a Meg ! (only four would fit into one PickAxe).

# Directory of D:\UNIX\delorie_docs\make-html
# [...]
#       128 file(s)        546,967 bytes

((Fortunately, Richard is beyond criticism and should never pay an editor.))
