---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0005400) kre (reporter) - 2021-07-08 21:15 https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1471#c5400 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Simon says (just had to start like that!) : The answer is "it depends" ;-) Tranditionally it would have output 1 and still does if .MAKE.SAVE_DOLLARS=no The behavior was changed a few years ago (to be more compatible with GNU make ;-), so now it outputs $(A) by default. I added .MAKE.SAVE_DOLLARS so that the traditional behavior (which my dirdeps.mk depends on) can be selected. In recent bmake it all depends on the value of .MAKE.SAVE_DOLLARS there are a couple of *.mk files in bmake that set .MAKE.SAVE_DOLLARS=no He also said he would take a look at this issue (I sent him its URL) but perhaps not for a few days.
