2007-10-10Some Windows fixes to allow builds to succeed.Paul Smith4-15/+35
2007-08-15Incorporate Icarus Sparry's fix for 3330 and 15919, and test cases.Paul Smith8-8/+127
One of our translations disappeared from the translations site so remove it. The fdl.texi file was changed to not contain any @node entries, so add some around it in make.texi.
2007-07-14Fix Savannah bug #20452.Paul Smith7-24/+84
Add a new feature to the test suite suggested by Icarus Sparry: set a timer before invoking a test, so that if it loops infinitely we will wake up and have a chance to kill the process and continue.
2007-07-04* Update to GPLv3Paul Smith115-1307/+1994
* Update copyright to 2007 * Fix download URL for translation files (thanks to Thiemo Seufer)

Fix some manual typos (20018).
2007-05-11Fix some documentation gitches.Paul Smith6-46/+76
Fix an uninitialized variable. Add builtin rules for Objective C. Add a new debug line that shows where the commands that are about to be run were defined.
2007-05-09Fix Savannah bug #19656: rationalize our use of case-insensitive stringPaul Smith14-132/+194
comparison functions to always use POSIX strcasecmp(). For non-POSIX systems that use other functions (strcmpi or stricmp) use a macro to alias strcasecmp to those. If we can't find any of them (VMS, plus whatever UNIX doesn't have them) then define our own version in misc.c.
2007-03-21Fix Savannah bug #19348: if the user specifiedPaul Smith2-4/+10
--disable-case-insensitive-file-system, don't turn it on.
2007-03-20This is a major update, which switches virtually every allocated-but-not-freedPaul Smith27-1245/+1266
string into the strcache. As a side-effect, many more structure members and function arguments can/should be declared const. As mentioned in the changelog, unfortunately measurement shows that this change does not yet reduce memory. The problem is with secondary expansion: because of this we store all the prerequisites in the string cache twice. First we store the prerequisite string after initial expansion but before secondary expansion, then we store each individual file after secondary expansion and expand_deps(). I plan to change expand_deps() to be callable in either context (eval or snap_deps) then have non-second-expansion targets call expand_deps() during eval, so that we only need to store that dependency list once.
2006-11-18Fix from Eli for incorrect value of $(MAKE) on Cygwin.Paul Smith25-573/+648
A few changes from char* to void* where appropriate, and removing of unnecessary casts. Much more work on const-ifying the codebase. This round involves some code changes to make it correct. NOTE!! There will almost certainly be problems on the non-POSIX ports that will need to be addressed after the const changes are finished: they will need to be const-ified properly and there may need to be some changes to allocate memory, etc. as well. The next (last?) big push for this, still to come, is const-ifying the filenames in struct file, struct dep, etc. This will allow us to store file names in the string cache and finally resolve Savannah bug #15182 (make uses too much memory), among other advantages.

2006-04-09Another round of cleanups:Paul Smith26-596/+582

2005-12-14Fixed record_target_var to initialize variable's export field with v_defaultBoris Kolpackov2-2/+7
instead of leaving it "initialized" by whatever garbage happened to be on the heap.
2005-12-13Update the make.1 man page.Paul Smith12-90/+112

2005-12-11Extend .SECONDEXPANSION to implicit rules. Final fix for bug #13781.Paul Smith6-29/+103
2005-12-09Fixed bug #13022 by setting is_target flag on files that this implicitBoris Kolpackov4-0/+45
pattern rule also makes.
2005-12-07Fixed bug #14334 by propagate the change of modification time to all theBoris Kolpackov4-5/+65
double-colon entries only if it is the last one to be updated.
2005-11-17Implemented the flavor function which returns the flavor ofBoris Kolpackov6-2/+125
a variable ('simple', 'recursive', or 'undefined').
2005-11-14Implemented the .INCLUDE_DIRS special variable. It expands to a listBoris Kolpackov6-1/+71
of directories that make searches for included makefiles.
2005-10-26Fix a crash I introduced last-minute.Paul Smith5-28/+36
Try to avoid extraneous rebuilds of template files.
2005-10-24Make second expansion optional (partial implementation).Paul Smith20-329/+460
I decided this feature was too impacting to make the permanent default behavior. This set of changes makes the default behavior of make the old behavior (no second expansion). If you want second expansion, you must define the .SECONDEXPANSION: special target before the first target that needs it. This set of changes ONLY fixes explicit and static pattern rules to work like this. Implicit rules still have second expansion enabled all the time: I'll work on that next. Note that there is still a backward-incompatibility: now to get the old SysV behavior using $$@ etc. in the prerequisites list you need to set .SECONDEXPANSION: as well.
2005-09-26Make sure to assign a boolean value to a 1-bit bitfield. Reported onPaul Smith3-7/+24
the bug-make mailing list. Fix Savannah bug # 14527: remember to free temporary line constructor memory if the line is empty.
