I have recently discovered that the "make" utility on Apollo systems does not seem to allow environment variables to be referenced within a makefile. For example, on a typical unix system a user can pass C compiler options to make via the predefined CFLAGS make variable by executing the shell command "setenv CFLAGS options" prior to invoking make. I have used this feature on several other unix machines (Sun, HP, SGI, and others) but it does not work on Apollo. I have tried it on O.S. levels 9.7 and 10.1 using both the sys5 and bsd environments. Can anyone offer any suggestions? Mike Nielson Internet: nielson@dhw68k.cts.com UUCP: uunet!ccicpg!pdaeng!nielson
