Update NEWS docs.
Enhance the manual to use automake version.texi, and use the canonical
FSF copyright features and statement.
Some $(realpath ...) tests won't work on Windows; leave them out
The jobserver filedescriptor test might fail if some FDs are reserved,
so for now comment out that check.

Added new file strcache.c to various non-UNIX makefiles and build scripts.

Savannah bug #15182, but not much uses it yet. Coming shortly.
- Added short-circuiting $(and ..) and $(or ...) functions.
|
|
Rewrite large chunks of the "Commands" section of the manual to better
describe then backslash-newline handling, the SHELL variable, etc.

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.

Don't print errors if "include" is specified with no arguments.
New test suite for the $(shell ...) function.

When rebuilding makefiles, unset -B if MAKE_RESTARTS is >0.

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.

cleanups.
If we find a make error (invalid makefile syntax or something like that)
write back any tokens we have before we exit.
If we have waiting jobs (using -j + -l) set an alarm before we sleep on
the read() system call, so we can wake up to check the load and start
waiting jobs, if there are long-running jobs we would otherwise be
waiting for. Suggested by Grant Taylor.

Taylor. There are two forms of this: first, it was possible to lose
tokens when using -j and -l at the same time, because waiting jobs were
not checked when determining whether any jobs were outstanding. Second,
if you had an exported recursive variable that contained a $(shell ...)
function there is a possibility to lose tokens, since a token was taken
but the child list was not updated until after the shell function was
complete.
To resolve this I introduced a new variable that counted the number of
tokens we have obtained, rather than checking whether there were any
children on the list. I also added some sanity checks to make sure we
weren't writing back too many or not enough tokens. And, the master
make will drain the token pipe before exiting and compare the count of
tokens at the end to what was written there at the beginning.
Also:
* Ensure a bug in the environment (missing "=") doesn't cause make to core.
* Rename the .DEFAULT_TARGET variable to .DEFAULT_GOAL, to match the
terminology in the documentation and other variables like MAKECMDGOALS.
* Add documentation of the .DEFAULT_GOAL special variable.
Still need to document the secondary expansion stuff...

POSIX requires that the value of SHELL in the makefile NOT be exported
to sub-commands. Instead, the value in the environment when make was
invoked should be passed to the environment of sub-commands. Note that
make still uses SHELL to _run_ sub-commands; it just doesn't change the
value of the SHELL variable in the environment of sub-commands.
As an extension to POSIX, if the makefile explicitly exports SHELL then
GNU make _will_ use it in the environment of sub-commands.

- OS/2 Patches
- OpenVMS updates
- Sanitize the handling of -include/sinclude with and without -k
- Fix the setting of $< for order-only rules.

Add "!" to the list of shell escape characters: POSIX sh allows it to be
used to negate the return value of the command.

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.
|
|
Add new language support.
Minor configure, etc. cleanups.
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
