******************Start of Makfile*********** ccflags += "-D DEXI" obj-m := hello.o ************End***************** Is there any way i can echo a string ...like "Hey i am building hello.o now " in this makefile ? I tries targets like genbin as per http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt?v=3.9. I dont think other targets would work as this is a sub-directory level makefile which is being called from top directroy. Any help is really appreciated Thanks, Ratheesh _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
