Both really, but as you say, there's not much point maintaining a standalone solution for something that's better off implemented in make itself. In fact, regardless of getting the patch to make 3.83, I'd rather opt for putting effort into the patch and not external wrapper. Makes little difference delivering a prebuilt wrapper or a prebuilt make with build system, or building either one as prerequisite. > My problem, aside from limited time of course, is that I have no > indication yet of whether the patch is likely to be accepted into 3.83 > which in turn has an effect on how much work I want to put into the > standalone solution. Paul, any chance you can provide a status update > or thumbs up/down on http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?33138? I will try to allocate some time this week to properly read through your patch, test it and possibly make the changes I proposed earlier. I'll keep you updated. Btw. any clues as to when make 3.83 might be released? 3.82 is practically unusable due to the nasty memory corruption problem the unpatched release version has. -- Atte Peltomäki atte.peltom...@iki.fi <> http://kameli.org "Your effort to remain what you are is what limits you" _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
