2006-04-01Release GNU make 3.81.Paul Smith1-0/+5
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.
2006-03-20Add some alloca(0) calls for systems without "normal" alloca support.Paul Smith1-0/+6
Fix a file descriptor leak with make re-exec while using the jobserver. Update some release information.

2006-03-10Numerous updates to tests for issues found on Cygwin and Windows.Paul Smith1-0/+12
Revert a fix for $? including non-existent files as it shows a bug in the Linux kernel build. Give them a release to fix this. Add some changes from Eli Z. for Windows changes.
2006-03-08Some test updates for Windows.Paul Smith1-0/+8
Handle SHELL set on the command line properly for windows.
2006-02-17Make sure we don't introduce a circularity into the variable set linkedPaul Smith1-0/+6
list. Fixes Savannah bug #15757.
2006-02-15Fix Savannah bug #106: keep separate track of which variable we arePaul Smith1-0/+12
expanding, and use that info when generating error messages instead of the file info, where appropriate.
2006-02-11Last of the copyright updates.Paul Smith1-2/+2
2006-02-11More copyright/license updates.Paul Smith1-0/+17
2006-02-10- New code capability: a read-only string cache. Start of solution forPaul Smith1-3/+12
Savannah bug #15182, but not much uses it yet. Coming shortly. - Added short-circuiting $(and ..) and $(or ...) functions.
2006-02-08Fixed Savannah bug #15641.Boris Kolpackov1-0/+4
2006-02-06Fix Savannah bugs # 15341, 15534, and 15533.Paul Smith1-0/+4
Rewrite large chunks of the "Commands" section of the manual to better describe then backslash-newline handling, the SHELL variable, etc.
2006-01-04Various changes getting ready for the release of 3.81.Paul Smith1-0/+6
- Updates to make.texi and make.1 and other documentation - Some VMS patches - Fix minor bugs reported on the mailing list and from Debian.
2005-12-13Update the make.1 man page.Paul Smith1-0/+9
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/+6
2005-12-09Fixed bug #13022 by setting is_target flag on files that this implicitBoris Kolpackov1-0/+4
pattern rule also makes.
2005-12-07Fixed bug #14334 by propagate the change of modification time to all theBoris Kolpackov1-0/+4
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/+4
a variable ('simple', 'recursive', or 'undefined').
2005-11-14Implemented the .INCLUDE_DIRS special variable. It expands to a listBoris Kolpackov1-0/+5
of directories that make searches for included makefiles.
2005-10-24Make second expansion optional (partial implementation).Paul Smith1-0/+12
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.
2005-08-31Try using POSIX::getcwd to find the working directory wherever it exists.Paul Smith1-0/+8
This should help the tests run more accurately on Windows (hopefully...)
2005-08-29Fix make.h preprocessor directive to work better with Windows compilers.Paul Smith1-0/+10
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/+6
follow POSIX backslash/newline conventions. Use a different method for testing the SHELL variable, which hopefully will work better on non-UNIX systems.
2005-08-13Wrapped calls to $(wildcard ) with $(sort) so that the resulting orderBoris Kolpackov1-0/+6
is no longer filesystem-dependant.
2005-08-10Fixed Savannah bug #13881.Boris Kolpackov1-0/+4
2005-08-08- Fixed a bug reported by Michael Matz regarding handling of parallelPaul Smith1-0/+6
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/+13
2005-06-27Cleaned up some problems found with the tests running on a powerfulPaul Smith1-0/+7
Solaris system with an EMC NFS storage solution. Still get some odd errors here unfortunately related to sub-second timestamps that I just can't figure out. It all works if we run the tests in /tmp instead though :-/.
2005-06-27Make sure timestamp problems don't cause the -W test to fail.Paul Smith1-0/+5
2005-06-27Fix strerror() handling for systems which set ANSI_STRING.Paul Smith1-0/+7
Don't print errors if "include" is specified with no arguments. New test suite for the $(shell ...) function.
2005-06-26Fix Savannah bug # 1332: handle backslash-newline pairs in command scriptsPaul Smith1-0/+5
according to POSIX rules.
2005-06-25Fix Savannah bug # 13478. If -L is given, take the latest mtime for aPaul Smith1-0/+3
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/+3
references in target definition lines.
2005-06-25Fix -W foo yielding infinite recursion in some cases of re-exec.Paul Smith1-0/+2
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/+7
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 Smith1-0/+5
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.
2005-06-09Fix Savannah bug #11913: ensure that scopes such as foreach, etc. takePaul Smith1-0/+4
precedence over the global scope when they're used in a global context (such as an eval).
2005-05-31Fixed Savannah bugs #13216 and #13218.Boris Kolpackov1-0/+5
2005-05-13Implement new "if... else if... endif" semantics.Paul Smith1-0/+5
2005-05-03Fix problems with losing tokens in the jobserver, reported by GrantPaul Smith1-0/+11
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...
