Hi,
I'm new to Windows SFU. Our aim is to port a running Solaris application into Windows 2000/XP. I'm really impreseed with the kind of feedback I got about the use of Interix for this porting requirement. But, while trying to build my application in Windows I'm facing a problem in one of my Makefile. This Makefile is running fine without any error in Solaris, but giving me the following error:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
$ make all

: 17:29:11 10/17/05 ; cd /dev/fs/C/Swayam/Projects/Developement/splash/Base/db/Oracle8i/metadata/client ; Make all;
sh: syntax error: `if' unmatched

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And my makefile is:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

WSROOT=../../../..
include $(WSROOT)/etc/wsmkinclude.common
client_base:sh= \
        if [ ! -d "${WORKING_HOME}/vendor" -o ! -d "${WORKING_HOME}/vendor/EnterpriseTrafficCache" ] ;\
        then \
           echo 'load_client_config.sql' ;\
           echo 'load_client_metadata.sql' ;\
        fi ;\
        if [ ! -d "${WORKING_HOME}/vendor" ] ;\
        then \
           echo 'load_client_metadata_core.sql' ;\
        fi ;\
        if [ -d "${WORKING_HOME}/vendor/EnterpriseTrafficCache" ] ;\
        then \
           echo 'load_sched_info_web.sql' ;\
        else \
           echo 'load_sched_info_core.sql' ;\
        fi ;

SQLSOURCE= jobType.sql \
client_feature_metadata.sql \
${client_base}

SQLTOUCH= $(SQLSOURCE:.sql=.o)
SQLDROP=
all:    $(SQLTOUCH)
clean:  drop
        rm -f *.o
drop:   $(SQLDROP)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If anybody has any solution to this, then pls help me.
All my thanks to those who are going to help me in resolving this issue.

Regards
Swayam

Yep - an easy one for a change - you need to download gnu make from interop tools warehouse - use pkg_add is the easiest then execute gmake all

Thanks for your suggession. As you said I've tried with gmake also. And this time I'm getting the following message:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
$ gmake all
Makefile:21: Malformed per-target variable definition
Memory fault
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

any further advice???

-Regards

Neither gmake(3.80) or Interix make (/bin/make) will help you - as is.

Interix make does support the TARGET:sh=... syntax,
but there's a problem in that the shell only executes up to the first ';'
I haven't been able to find a fix around this "feature"/"bug".

And gmake doesn't support the TARGET:sh= ... syntax at all.

To use either /bin/make or gmake you have to change you Makefile.

The workarounds:

Interix make:
   take the multiline shell commands and put it into another file
   called "client_base.sh"
   In the make file, use
      client_base:sh= WORKING_HOME=${WORKING_HOME} ./client_base.sh

gmake:
   Replace "client_base:sh= \"
   with
       client_base:= $(shell \
   and add a  ')' on the last line of the shell commands

Question:

  - what version of gmake did you try ?  
    And where did you get it ?  (from interopsystems tool warehouse ?)
    I did not have any trouble with my Interix versions of gmake.

Notes:

  - Microsoft has a solution guide for migrating UNIX makefiles to Windows.
    It points out the diffs between gmake and Interix make and Solaris make.
    I don't claim that this doc covers all the Solaris make features, but 
    it does some. (I didn't have a solaris system to play with at the time)
