Isn't this how they are set?
Normally this is fine. If it is not working, then probably your configure and/or Makefile are ignoring the user-set values. For example, code like this... > CPPFLAGS=" -D__linux__ -DADT_TRACE_ENABLE=0" > > if [[ $debug = "true" ]]; then > CFLAGS=" -O0 -ggdb" > CXXFLAGS=" -std=c++0x -O0 -ggdb" > else > CFLAGS=" -O2 -g" > CXXFLAGS="-std=c++0x -O2 -g" > fi ...will override any user assignment to CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS. It is also basically guaranteed to fail on any compiler that is not compatible with GCC. Cheers, -- Nick Bowler, Elliptic Technologies (http://www.elliptictech.com/)
