Summary: double-colon pattern rules Project: make Submitted by: dbateman Submitted on: Friday 03/02/2007 at 11:46 Severity: 3 - Normal Item Group: Bug Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Component Version: 3.80 Operating System: Any Fixed Release: None _______________________________________________________ Details: Consider the makefile pat=$(filter-out %/,$(subst /,/ ,$@)) target/%:: @echo "$(pat) 1" target/%:: @echo "$(pat) 2" target:: @echo "test 1" target:: @echo "test 2" I'd hoped that "make target/test" would run the two double-colon pattern rules, like "make target" does. However, this appears not to be the case. If this is a bug or not is definitely a matter of opinion, but having this feature would certainly be useful to me..
