[Scratchbox-users] detecting scratchbox from Makefile

[Aras Vaichas]

Hi,

I've written a Makefile which checks to see if it is running within
Scratchbox:

dummy:
ifeq ($(strip $(SBOX_USE_CCACHE)),yes)
       make $(EXECUTABLE)
else
       scratchbox -d $(DIRECTORY) make $(EXECUTABLE)
endif

I chose SBOX_USE_CCACHE pretty much at random as a way of detecting the scratchbox environment. 

Is there a better or proper way?
