2004-01-08Enhancements to the documentation (fixes bugs #1772 and 4898).Paul Smith4-18/+39
Add "!" to the list of shell escape characters: POSIX sh allows it to be used to negate the return value of the command.
2004-01-07Fix order-only prerequisites for pattern rules. (Savannah patch #2349).Paul Smith6-5/+64
Add a regression test for this. Older libraries don't allow *alloc(0), so make sure we don't ever do that.
2003-11-04Fix bugs 5798 and 6195.Paul Smith6-14/+72
2003-11-03Added MINGW32 changes.Paul Smith6-56/+113
This commits a number of changes from Earnie Boyd that allows GNU make to build for MINGW32 systems. Only missing from this commit are the changes to configure.in etc.; I'm waiting for Earnie to sign papers for those new files. Also not here is any README.mingw32 etc. which would explain how to use this port.
2003-10-22Build fixes due to changes in the FSF web site.Paul Smith9-33/+60
Add new language support. Minor configure, etc. cleanups.
2003-07-31Updated for autoconf 2.57, automake 1.7.6, and gettext 0.12.1.Paul Smith8-13/+37
Fixed problems with the dist target (adding missing files). Workaround for a bug in gettext 0.12.1 po/Makefile.in.in where distclean wasn't cleaning everything, which caused distcheck to fail.
2003-07-19Minor updates for Windows and OS/2.Paul Smith5-12/+19
2003-05-02- Fix bug #1405: allow multiple pattern-specific variables to match a target.Paul Smith24-205/+551
- Fix some uncleanliness about the implementation of patterns-specific vars. - Some enhancements to the OS/2 port.
2003-03-28Fix bug #2515: the .SECONDARY target with no prerequisites wasn'tPaul Smith4-1/+50
behaving properly (if you listed prerequisites it worked properly).

2003-03-25Commit fix for bug #1418.Paul Smith8-90/+110

2003-03-24Add support for OS/2, contributed by Andreas Buening <andreas.buening@nexgo.de>Paul Smith12-96/+717
Also a small patch from Hartmut Becker <Hartmut.Becker@compaq.com> for VMS.
2003-01-30Fix bug #2238: the read.c:eval() function was not entirely reentrant.Paul Smith6-11/+66
Apply patch #1022: fix a memory corruption on very long target-specific variable definition lines.
2003-01-30Enhancement (bug #2407) Make error messages more clear.Paul Smith6-47/+81
2003-01-30Portability fix for glob.h building in FreeBSD ports system.Paul Smith12-102/+111
Implement a fix for bug # 2169: too many OSs, even major OSs like Solaris, don't properly implement SA_RESTART: important system calls like stat() can still fail when SA_RESTART is set. So, forget the BROKEN_RESTART config check and get rid of atomic_stat() and atomic_readdir(), and implement permanent wrappers for EINTR checking on various system calls (stat(), fstat(), opendir(), and readdir() so far).
2003-01-22Fix bug #1744: mask extra arguments to recursive invocations of $(call ...)Paul Smith4-0/+61

2002-10-14Convert the source code to use ANSI C style function definitions andPaul Smith33-958/+425
enable the automake ansi2knr capability. Right now this doesn't quite build using a K&R compiler because of a problem with the loadavg test program, but the rest of the code works. I'm asking the automake list about this problem.
2002-10-13Fix bug#1379: don't use alloca() where it could overrun the stack size.Paul Smith6-39/+111
Implemented enhancement #1391: allow "export" in target-specific variable definitions. Change the Info name of the "Automatic" node to "Automatic Variables". Add text clarifying the scope of automatic variables to that section.
2002-10-05Fix core dump on malformed variable line (Debian bug #81656)Paul Smith7-11/+39
Allow SysV-style variable references to use {} in addition to (). Add variable.h to the POTFILES.in since it has a translatable string.

Fix hash.h typos (only noticed when using Windows). Update .cvsignore files.
2002-09-10Fix regex matching for modification time warnings.Paul Smith1-4/+2
The ones we had were weird, and failed for multiple warnings in a single file.
2002-09-10A few test bug fixes:Paul Smith4-4/+9
* Never use "touch" in make rules; it breaks on most sub-second supporting systems. Use echo "" > $@ instead. * Forgot to close test makefiles before using them! All the above worked fine on Linux but failed miserably on Solaris.
2002-09-10Have the test driver check for the new format of the time skew errorPaul Smith3-6/+16

Makefile.am.
2002-08-10Update to a new version of automake and gettext.Paul Smith13-64/+76
Invent a new macro HAVE_DOS_PATHS and change various instances of: #if defined(WINDOWS) || defined(__MSDOS__) to use the new macro instead. This should help make the OS/2 port cleaner, as well. Invent a cvs-clean maintainer target that tries to get the workspace back to the state it was in after a CVS checkout. New language.
2002-08-08Change the version.Paul Smith8-203/+193
Update to require new gettext. Change hash.c to by K&R. Redo some strings to make i18n simpler.

2002-07-11Install Greg McGary's patches to port the id-utils hashing functions toPaul Smith21-1028/+1843
GNU make. Also he provides some other performance fixups after doing some profiling of make on large makefiles. Modify the test suite to allow the use of Valgrind to find memory problems.
2002-07-10Implement SysV-style $$@ support. I looked at E.Parmelan's patch butPaul Smith9-40/+233

Add a new test suite for automatic variables.
