2006-02-01Fix a bug where a variable could be used without being initialized in W32.Paul Smith1-0/+6
2006-02-01Various updates, mainly to the Windows port, from Eli Zaretskii andPaul Smith1-4/+47
Markus Maurhart.
2006-01-04Various changes getting ready for the release of 3.81.Paul Smith1-0/+60
- Updates to make.texi and make.1 and other documentation - Some VMS patches - Fix minor bugs reported on the mailing list and from Debian.
2005-12-14Fixed record_target_var to initialize variable's export field with v_defaultBoris Kolpackov1-0/+6
instead of leaving it "initialized" by whatever garbage happened to be on the heap.
2005-12-13Update the make.1 man page.Paul Smith1-0/+5
Use rm -f instead of rm in the test scripts. Fixes bug #15085.
2005-12-11Extend .SECONDEXPANSION to implicit rules. Final fix for bug #13781.Paul Smith1-0/+7
2005-12-09Fixed bug #13022 by setting is_target flag on files that this implicitBoris Kolpackov1-0/+6
pattern rule also makes.
2005-12-07Fixed bug #14334 by propagate the change of modification time to all theBoris Kolpackov1-0/+6
double-colon entries only if it is the last one to be updated.
2005-11-17Implemented the flavor function which returns the flavor ofBoris Kolpackov1-0/+7
a variable ('simple', 'recursive', or 'undefined').
2005-11-14Implemented the .INCLUDE_DIRS special variable. It expands to a listBoris Kolpackov1-0/+7
of directories that make searches for included makefiles.
2005-10-26Fix a crash I introduced last-minute.Paul Smith1-0/+6
Try to avoid extraneous rebuilds of template files.
2005-10-24Make second expansion optional (partial implementation).Paul Smith1-0/+36
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 Smith1-0/+12
the bug-make mailing list. Fix Savannah bug # 14527: remember to free temporary line constructor memory if the line is empty.
2005-08-29Fix make.h preprocessor directive to work better with Windows compilers.Paul Smith1-0/+11
Fix some regression tests to (hopefully) work better on Windows.
2005-08-25If we're on a DOS/W32/OS2 system and we're not using a unixy shell, don'tPaul Smith1-0/+7
follow POSIX backslash/newline conventions. Use a different method for testing the SHELL variable, which hopefully will work better on non-UNIX systems.
2005-08-10Fixed Savannah bug #13881.Boris Kolpackov1-0/+6
2005-08-08- Fixed a bug reported by Michael Matz regarding handling of parallelPaul Smith1-0/+75
jobs after a failed job. - Enhancements to WINDOWS32 code from Eli Zaretskii. - Add Microsoft Project files from J. Grant.
2005-07-12Various minor updates and code cleanups.Paul Smith1-0/+25
2005-07-04Various fixes and updates from testers of the beta3 release (mostly WindowsPaul Smith1-29/+44
and OS/2 changes).
2005-06-27Fixes for some Windows/MSC compile issues.Paul Smith1-0/+9
wget command line option seems to have changed?
2005-06-27Fix strerror() handling for systems which set ANSI_STRING.Paul Smith1-0/+10

2005-06-26Fix Savannah bug # 1332: handle backslash-newline pairs in command scriptsPaul Smith1-9/+18
according to POSIX rules.
2005-06-25Fix Savannah bug # 13478. If -L is given, take the latest mtime for aPaul Smith1-0/+8
symlink even if it is "dangling" (it doesn't resolve to a real file).
2005-06-25Fix Savannah bug #1454: skip over semicolons (and comments) inside variablePaul Smith1-0/+13
references in target definition lines.
2005-06-25Fix -W foo yielding infinite recursion in some cases of re-exec.Paul Smith1-0/+4
Added a -W test suite.
2005-06-25Add a new variable: MAKE_RESTARTS, to count how many times make has re-exec'd.Paul Smith1-0/+21
When rebuilding makefiles, unset -B if MAKE_RESTARTS is >0.
2005-06-12Fix Savannah bug # 1328: if stdout is redirected to a full filesystem, wePaul Smith1-2/+13
check for this and exit with an error. The closeout.c version from gnulib pulls in too much other stuff, and gnulib requires an ANSI C 89 compliant compiler, while GNU make (so far) still wants to work on K&R.
