I think, more flexible would be: echo "g++ $CXXFLAGS" | bash BTW, "make" is fine with following definition: CXXFLAGS := -D__int="long long" and it also evaluates the expansion for internal expression "$(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS)" correctly. > (because you told it to), and this is equivalent to: > > g++ "-D__int64=\"long" "long\"" ... > > because that's how the shell works.

Double escaping should work in this case, but the problem is that the substitution in Makefile will also contain double escapes, which will be wrong. -- With best regards, Dmitry _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
