How to add comment line in Make/files

wyj216 · July 21, 2021, 04:56

I just want to comment out some lines to accelerate the compile during the development. I tried #, wmake complaint "invalid preprocessing directive #...". I also tried //, but did not work.

Not sure about this but can you try -- space before a file name?

The Make/files, Make/options are passed through cpp (pre-processor). Use C-style comments and all should be fine. Eg,

Code:

sinclude $(GENERAL_RULES)/module-path-user

/* Failsafe - user location */
ifeq (,$(strip $(FOAM_MODULE_APPBIN)))
    FOAM_MODULE_APPBIN = $(FOAM_USER_APPBIN)
endif
ifeq (,$(strip $(FOAM_MODULE_LIBBIN)))
    FOAM_MODULE_LIBBIN = $(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)
endif

/* Python */
PY_INCS := \
    -Wno-old-style-cast \
    -I/usr/include/python3.6m \
    -I/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/numpy/core/include \
    -I/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/numpy/core/include

PY_LIBS := \
    -lpython3.6m

#if defined(OPENFOAM) && (OPENFOAM < 2012)
    /* ... something older ... */
#endif

 
/* ... later on */
EXE_INC = \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/finiteVolume/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/lnInclude \
    $(PY_INCS)

Thank you, Mark. This works perfectly.
