Use recursion macros to call NMAKE recursively. Recursive sessions inherit command-line and environment-variable macros and Tools.ini information. They do not inherit makefile-defined inference rules or .SUFFIXES and .PRECIOUS specifications. To pass macros to a recursive NMAKE session, either set an environment variable with SET before the recursive call, define a macro in the command for the recursive call, or define a macro in Tools.ini.
| Macro | Definition |
| MAKE | Command used originally to invoke NMAKE. |
| MAKEDIR | Current directory when NMAKE was invoked. |
| MAKEFLAGS | Options currently in effect. Use as /$(MAKEFLAGS). |
