Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     The Build:macro rule specifies an NMAKE macro definition. All macro
     definitions specified by this rule are placed at the beginning of
     the project makefile.
 
     Some macros in a PWB makefile are reserved or generated in the
     process of creating the makefile rather than explicitly specified
     with a Build:macro rule. These macros do not appear in the
     Customize Project Template dialog box.
     See: ◄Reserved Build Macros►
          ◄Special Build Macros►
 
     Syntax
 
     Build:macro <macro> "<value>"
 
     <macro>    Name of the macro
 
     <value>    Value of the macro, which may be empty ("").
 
     When PWB applies this rule, it places the macro definition at the
     beginning of the project makefile as follows:
 
          <macro> = <value>
 
     Macro definitions appear in the project makefile in the same order
     as the build:macro rules in the template.
