Hello, It seems that the implicit rule that updates archive members is not reflected in the current documentation (doc/make.texi:9489). The rule in question is in the form of,
(%): %
$(AR) $(ARFLAGS) $@ $<
I also do not think this falls into the platform-dependent rules, which are
explicitly excluded from the list. Therefore, I doubt whether the omission is
intended or not.
This is my first time posting on this list and please accept my apologies for
any trouble :-X
Best regards,
Hu Jialun
