This part doesn't make sense to me; maybe you can provide more info here. An implicit rule ALWAYS has a recipe, so if a target matches an implicit rule, and does not have a recipe of its own, that recipe will ALWAYS be run. So, I don't understand the situation you're trying to describe. Having a target with no recipe will absolutely not keep targets from being created by implicit rules. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
