Is System Dependent Compilation Possible? [message #6110]

I have a tool written in IDL/Fortran and C that needs to
run on both Unix and VMS systems. I have a few system
dependent IDL procedures that I use as wrappers for the
CALL_EXTERNALS.

What I would like to do is have a batch file, say
compile.pro, which can be invoked with @compile.pro
and will compile the correct version of wrappers
depending upon the OS, e.g.

IF !version.os EQ 'vms' then begin

.run vms_version.pro

ENDIF ELSE BEGIN

.run unix_version.pro

ENDELSE

Unfortunately, I can't seem to come up with anything
that even approaches this.

IF !version.os EQ 'vms' then .run vms_version.pro

produces an error.

Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks

Tim
