Can you please give some examples of the things you are trying to do, that seem to require use of both kinds of conditionals? I was trying to come up with an environment variable to control whether expensive tests of the test suite should be run or not, e.g. depending on WITH_SLOW_TESTS=1 or WITH_SLOW_TESTS=0. I didn't want to use an Autoclave conditional, as these are baked in the build system following 'configure', i.e., not dynamic enough (I want the ability to switch this on or off anytime I run the tests -- not just at configure time). This is where I thought of employing Make's native conditionals, which would have enabled checking the value of the WITH_SLOW_TESTS environment variable every time Make is run. In the end, I've worked around the issue by moving the skip check/logic in each test that I wanted to skip. That's a bit ugly as when running the test individually you need to remember to set WITH_SLOW_TESTS=1 to really have it run, but it's the best I've found thus far. For the full context of what I was working on, see the patches submit for consideration to GNU Guix [0]. [0] https://issues.guix.gnu.org/74394 I guess this can be closed, though I'd still be interested if there are better ways to accomplish skipping some tests than what I've ended up using, as that seems like some shortcoming that build system tinkerers having gotten used to the likes of Meson, where you can script pretty much anything, would not easily accept. -- Thanks, Maxim

Hi Maxim,
the Make conditionals would not work as I expected.
Since Automake rearranges things quite a lot when generating the
Makefile from Makefile.am, I'm not too surprised there can be problems.
I could give it another look to see if I
can distill some interesting points from that experiment
If you have time, it couldn't hurt, though I fear there is no real
solution :(. (At least without automake recognizing every make
conditional, which isn't anything I'll be implementing). --thanks, karl.

The workaround got rid of the Automake syntax checks, but I faced more problems passed that. It was very confusing; the Make conditionals would not work as I expected. I could give it another look to see if I can distill some interesting points from that experiment; I still have my minimal example around. -- Thanks, Maxim

Hi,
The problem appears simpler than I first thought; it seems Automake is
hard-coded to expect 'endif' to be matched with its own 'if'; causing parsing
errors when attempting to use Make's conditional such as ifdef, ifeq,
etc. that also end with 'endif'.
This was reported 23 years ago here: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2001-11/msg00015.html
There is workaround proposed that makes use of an output variable to hide the
'endif' behind it:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
ENDIF=endif
AC_SUBST(ENDIF)
and to apply this in Makefile.am:
ifdef f
..
@ENDIF@
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I've tested the above and it appear to work, but perhaps Automake could
accommodate Make snippets better?
--
Thanks,
Maxim
