Hi,

Can you tell me the correct syntax to make this work?

If I have a file a.c, for example, which looks like:

	#ifdef FLAG
	#define A 1
	#else
	#define A 0
	#endif

	main(){
	  printf("A=%d\n", A);
	}


$ make a CFLAGS=-DFLAG
cc -DFLAG a.c -o a

$ a
A=1

That works.

But if I want to "build" such a file in a sandbox, how do
I specify the -DFLAG option in the build command line?

Thanks,
Dick Goodwin
