I see that Automake is including a .l.c rule. And I see that if I touch a .l file, it automatically runs flex to generate a new .c file, and then compiles that .c file. For example:
------ [13:19] jsquyres-mac:~/svn/ompi3/opal/util % touch show_help_lex.l [13:20] jsquyres-mac:~/svn/ompi3/opal/util % make Making all in keyval make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. LEX show_help_lex.c CC show_help_lex.lo CCLD libopalutil.la /usr/bin/ranlib: file: .libs/libopalutil.a(qsort.o) has no symbols ----- So I guess I'd like to see a specific case where editing a .l file does not re-generate the .c file properly.
