--- Comment #2 from jpakkane at gmail dot com --- The point of this request is to integrate the linker's dependency list with Make and Ninja. The way the workflow would go (and already does for compilers) is the following: - the linker gets invoked with a flag to write the dep file - it gets written to libresult.so.d (or somesuch) - _immediately_ after the process has finished, Make or Ninja loads the contents of the file and stores it in their internal data storage - in case of Ninja, it immediately deletes the .d file after it has read it, this makes a big performance difference on Windows As can be seen, getting the dependency info in the correct format is necessary, because it is immediately consumed. Needing to do a conversion means that everyone who wants to use this feature needs to wrap all linker invocations in a custom script. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
