-#  There exist several targets which are by default empty and which can be 
-#  used for execution of your targets. These targets are usually executed 
-#  before and after some main targets. They are: 
-#
-#     .build-pre:              called before 'build' target
-#     .build-post:             called after 'build' target
-#     .clean-pre:              called before 'clean' target

-#     .clobber-pre:            called before 'clobber' target
-#     .clobber-post:           called after 'clobber' target
-#     .all-pre:                called before 'all' target
-#     .all-post:               called after 'all' target
-#     .help-pre:               called before 'help' target
-#     .help-post:              called after 'help' target
-#
-#  Targets beginning with '.' are not intended to be called on their own.
-#
-#  Main targets can be executed directly, and they are:
-#  
-#     build                    build a specific configuration
-#     clean                    remove built files from a configuration
-#     clobber                  remove all built files
-#     all                      build all configurations
-#     help                     print help mesage
-#  
-#  Targets .build-impl, .clean-impl, .clobber-impl, .all-impl, and
-#  .help-impl are implemented in nbproject/makefile-impl.mk.
-#
-#  Available make variables:
-#
-#     CND_BASEDIR                base directory for relative paths
