macOS shell script makefile problem

[debug]

Hello-

I've been trying to compile a plugin for nuke, it comes shipped with a makefile however it doesn't appear to work, i've no idea about shell scripting but I've checked all the paths and they are all correct, any ideas what might be going wrong?

NDKDIR ?= /Applications/Nuke5.2v1.app/Contents/MacOS
CXX ?= g++
LINK ?= g++
CXXFLAGS ?= -g -c -DUSE_GLEW -I$(NDKDIR)/include -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -arch ppc -arch i386
LINKFLAGS ?= -L$(NDKDIR) -Wl,-syslibroot,/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -arch ppc -arch i386
LIBS ?= -lDDImage -lGLEW
LINKFLAGS += -bundle

and this is what the terminal outputs when i double click on the makefile:

/Applications/Nuke5.2v1/Documentation/NDK/examples/Makefile ; exit;
/Applications/Nuke5.2v1/Documentation/NDK/examples/Makefile: line 8: NDKDIR: command not found

/Applications/Nuke5.2v1/Documentation/NDK/examples/Makefile: line 20: ` $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) -o $(@) $<'

any help in getting this to work would be great, thanks!

How are you executing this? You are running make, not trying to execute the Makefile right?

I've been running makefile.. that was wrong wasn't it

I ran make as root and its working now, thanks!

I ran make as root

That's not a very good thing to do.

The problem is likely the $PATH not being set up in the user account but being corect in the root account.

What would be the best way to link this to an xcode project?

thanks again
