another target variable question

[cbrown]

  Essentially, I want to make rules such that "make clean" will clean
the current project, but not its dependent projects.  So, I have;


PROJECTS = a b

.PHONY: $(PROJECTS)

foo clean: $(CURR)

a: b

$(PROJECTS):
ifeq ($(MAKECMDGOALS),clean)
        @echo "($@,$(CURR))"
ifeq ($@,$(CURR))
        @echo gonna clean $@
else
        @echo NOT gonna clean $@
endif
else
        @echo gonna $(MAKECMDGOALS) $@
endif

When I execute "make CURR=a clean", I get;

(b,a)
NOT gonna clean b
(a,a)
NOT gonna clean a

How come the "ifeq ($@,$(CURR))" doesn't work?

Is there an easier path to my goal?
