Hi,
I have the following aliases in my .bashrc:
alias remake="make clean && make"
alias makedebug="make CXXFLAGS=\"-g -DDEBUG\""
alias makerelease="make CXXFLAGS=\"-g -O3\""
They work fine from a regular bash shell.
I'm trying to use them via emacs compile command and get the following
result:
-*- mode: compilation; default-directory: "~/workspace/demo_12_1/" -*-
Compilation started at Tue Sep 9 11:40:15
cd ~/workspace/demo_12_1/ && makedebug
/bin/bash: makedebug: command not found
Compilation exited abnormally with code 127 at Tue Sep 9 11:40:15
How can I make the emacs shell aware of the aliases I defined?
Thanks a lot,
-Etay

I think this is because bash runs in `non-interactive' mode when Emacs
spawns a compile process. You can try defining BASH_ENV in the runtime
environment of Emacs. The `BASH_ENV' variable is expanded by bash, then
it tries to read commands from this file. So you can set its value to
something like:
BASH_ENV='~/.bashenv'
Then add the aliases of your non-interactive bash sessions to that file.
