Recipe parameters for variables?

[bukowa]

Can it be done?

[unix]
export VAR=1

[windows]
export VAR=2

So you're seeking to export different values for a particular environment variable depending whether running on Windows or a Unix OS?

Does this do what you're looking for? -

export VAR := if os_family() == 'windows' { "2" } else { "1" }

Yes, thank you. I was hoping for a (e.g. undocumented) more expressive expression like in my example.

I'm not opposed to allowing OS attributes on variables, so I'll leave this open.
