2007-03-20This is a major update, which switches virtually every allocated-but-not-freedPaul Smith1-183/+183
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 Smith1-34/+45
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 Smith1-23/+22
- Add more warnings. - Rename variables that mask out-scope vars with the same name. - Remove all casts of return values from xmalloc, xrealloc, and alloca. - Remove casts of the first argument to xrealloc. - Convert all bcopy/bzero/bcmp invocations to use memcp/memmove/memset/memcmp.

2006-04-01Release GNU make 3.81.Paul Smith1-13/+9
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.
2006-02-15Fix Savannah bug #106: keep separate track of which variable we arePaul Smith1-9/+10

Windows: allow users to set SHELL to cmd.exe and have it behave as if no UNIX shell were found.
2004-09-21Fix some bugs in variable pattern substitution (e.g. $(VAR:A=B)),Paul Smith1-36/+45
reported by Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>. One was a simple typo; to fix the other we call patsubst_expand() for all instances of variable substitution, even when there is no '%'. We used to call subst_expand() with a special flag set in the latter case, but it didn't work properly in all situations. Easier to just use patsubst_expand() since that's what it is.
2004-02-24Many compiler warning cleanups.Paul Smith1-19/+19

2002-10-14Convert the source code to use ANSI C style function definitions andPaul Smith1-148/+47
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.
