2009-05-26Add 'private' variable modifier, feature submitted by Ramon Garcia.Paul Smith4-227/+188
Rework the parser for variables to allow multiple modifiers and also allow for variables and targets with modifier names, like "export" and "private".
2007-11-04New special variable: .RECIPEPREFIXPaul Smith5-6/+90
Allows the user to reset the prefix character for introducing recipe lines from the default (tab) to any other single character, and back again. Also, reworked the manual to consistently use the word "recipe" to describe the set of commands we use to update a target, instead of the various phrases used in the past: "commands", "command lines", "command scripts", etc.
2007-08-15Incorporate Icarus Sparry's fix for 3330 and 15919, and test cases.Paul Smith3-0/+91
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 Smith5-23/+74
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 Smith7-325/+663
* Update copyright to 2007 * Fix download URL for translation files (thanks to Thiemo Seufer)
2007-03-20This is a major update, which switches virtually every allocated-but-not-freedPaul Smith3-14/+13
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.
2006-10-01Fixed a number of documentation bugs, plus some build/install issues:Paul Smith4-18/+27
16304, 16468, 16577, 17701, 17880, 16051, 16652, 16698 Plus some from the mailing list. Imported a patch from Eli to allow Cygwin builds to support DOS-style pathnames.
2006-04-01Release GNU make 3.81.Paul Smith3-30/+52
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.

list. Fixes Savannah bug #15757.
2006-02-15Fix Savannah bug #106: keep separate track of which variable we arePaul Smith7-40/+195
expanding, and use that info when generating error messages instead of the file info, where appropriate.
2006-02-11Last of the copyright updates.Paul Smith6-12/+12
2006-02-11More copyright/license updates.Paul Smith6-17/+128
2006-02-10- New code capability: a read-only string cache. Start of solution forPaul Smith4-9/+69
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 Kolpackov2-0/+22
2006-02-06Fix Savannah bugs # 15341, 15534, and 15533.Paul Smith2-0/+32
Rewrite large chunks of the "Commands" section of the manual to better describe then backslash-newline handling, the SHELL variable, etc.
2006-02-01Various updates, mainly to the Windows port, from Eli Zaretskii andPaul Smith1-1/+6
Markus Maurhart.
2006-01-04Various changes getting ready for the release of 3.81.Paul Smith3-45/+57
- 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 Smith8-52/+30
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 Smith3-0/+41
2005-12-09Fixed bug #13022 by setting is_target flag on files that this implicitBoris Kolpackov2-0/+34
pattern rule also makes.
2005-12-07Fixed bug #14334 by propagate the change of modification time to all theBoris Kolpackov2-0/+32
double-colon entries only if it is the last one to be updated.
2005-11-17Implemented the flavor function which returns the flavor ofBoris Kolpackov2-0/+48
a variable ('simple', 'recursive', or 'undefined').
2005-11-14Implemented the .INCLUDE_DIRS special variable. It expands to a listBoris Kolpackov2-0/+51
of directories that make searches for included makefiles.
2005-10-26Fix a crash I introduced last-minute.Paul Smith1-3/+2
Try to avoid extraneous rebuilds of template files.
2005-10-24Make second expansion optional (partial implementation).Paul Smith8-128/+120
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 Smith2-6/+17
This should help the tests run more accurately on Windows (hopefully...)
2005-08-29Preserve the backslash that's printed by echo.Paul Smith1-2/+2
2005-08-29Fix make.h preprocessor directive to work better with Windows compilers.Paul Smith4-18/+30
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 Smith2-10/+16
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 Kolpackov2-5/+11
is no longer filesystem-dependant.
2005-08-10Fixed Savannah bug #13881.Boris Kolpackov2-0/+15
2005-08-08- Fixed a bug reported by Michael Matz regarding handling of parallelPaul Smith2-0/+33
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 Smith7-26/+65
2005-07-04Various fixes and updates from testers of the beta3 release (mostly WindowsPaul Smith3-9/+9
and OS/2 changes).
2005-06-27Cleaned up some problems found with the tests running on a powerfulPaul Smith4-53/+39
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 Smith2-0/+8
2005-06-27Fix strerror() handling for systems which set ANSI_STRING.Paul Smith3-0/+40
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 Smith2-0/+262
according to POSIX rules.
2005-06-25Fix Savannah bug # 13478. If -L is given, take the latest mtime for aPaul Smith2-0/+16
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 Smith2-17/+18
references in target definition lines.
2005-06-25Fix -W foo yielding infinite recursion in some cases of re-exec.Paul Smith2-0/+59
Added a -W test suite.
2005-06-25Add a new variable: MAKE_RESTARTS, to count how many times make has re-exec'd.Paul Smith3-1/+104
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 Smith2-0/+14
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 Smith2-23/+34
precedence over the global scope when they're used in a global context (such as an eval).
