While trying to trace some errores that appear when modifying configuration and then doing "make build" without a previous "make clean" I found one case. After the first build all `.a` libraries are built, however a change in configuration may change the list of object files to use for building them but they will not be rebuilt since there's no `Make.dep` for them (the dependency is written as: `<lib>: $(OBJS)` which will not trigger if $(OBJS) is different from last run). I'm thinking that since we already clear all `Make.dep` files and since is clearly a case of a target having dependencies changed, that the solution could be to generate a Make.dep rule with the concrete objects during build (like: `<lib>: obj1.o obj2.o ...`). This way, whenever a configuration changes the list of objects that rule changes and triggers the lib creation again. What do you think? Also, I wonder if this could happen in other scenarios the an `$(OBJS)` variable changes between builds. I guess the only concern should be libraries since they are the only intermediate object that is built. Or is there any other? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
