Hello, I'd like to ask a question concerning a python script in a makefile. Suppose I have a C++ project (sorry for raising this in a Python newsgroup), with some makefile for it. Before compiling the code, I'd like to check that there are no C++ convention violations (e.g., identifiers beginning with an underscore). So my makefile looks something like this:
target: ... verify.py $(CC) ... verify.py is a python script that checks for convention violations, i.e., its first line is #! /usr/bin/env python I can't figure out the following: 1. How can I get the python script to return a value to make, so that if it decides that there are convention violations make will fail? 2. How can I pass information from the makefile to the python script, e.g., the base directory to check? Thanks, Efrat -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
