nmake: can a batch file run as a art of a command block, affect the environment of the nmake.exe pro
- by Cheeso
I think in nmake if I do this:
example :
set value=77
echo %%value%%
The result will display 77 on the console.
Is there a way for me to invoke a .cmd or .bat file that will affect the environment of the nmake.exe process? Suppose I put the statement set value=77 in a file called "setvalue.cmd". Then change the makefile to this:
example :
setvalue
echo %%value%%
I get:
%value%
Alternatively, if there's a way to set a macro within a command block, that would also work. Or, a way to set the value of a macro from a batch file, even outside a command block.
