Get Value of a Macro referenced by the value of another Macro
I have a macro, MACRO_NAME, that has the name of another macro as its value. I need to construct a build rule based on the value of the of macro whose name is stored in MACRO_NAME. Both are temporary macros
%MACRO_NAME% is "ARCHIVE_DIRECTORY" The value of the ARCHIVE_DIRECTORY macro is "". I need to perform a step if this is the case. I have tries variations of: condition: [vbld_TempMacroObj("%MACRO_NAME%")] I get: Error expanding macros or script in property condexpr: <Error in System (VBScript) script code at Line 21, Column 2 (Object required: '[string: ""]')> What am I missing?

Apparently the macro value is not an object but a string, so use
[vbld_TempMacro("%MACRO_NAME%").Value] |
