That didn't appear to tell me anything useful, until I noticed: Finished compilation: CÂ okt 18 01:02:10 EEST 2007 So: $ cd lib/gis/colors/ $ cat foo.make COLORSRC := $(wildcard [a-z]*) test: @echo $(COLORSRC) $ make -f foo.make test aspect aspectcolr bcyr bgyr byg byr curvature differences elevation etopo2 evi foo.make grey grey1.0 grey255 gyr ndvi population rainbow ramp ryb ryg slope srtm terrain wave $ LANG=lv_LV make -f foo.make test aspect aspectcolr bcyr bgyr byg byr curvature CVS differences elevation etopo2 evi foo.make gyr grey grey1.0 grey255 ndvi population rainbow ramp ryb ryg slope srtm terrain wave ^^^ So, the way that $(wildcard ...) handles character ranges depends upon locale settings. I don't know if that's intentional or on oversight; locales simply aren't mentioned in the make documentation. Setting LANG in the Makefiles doesn't help, as (AFAICT) setlocale() gets called before the Makefiles are read. In this case, changing [a-z]* to [abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz]* seems to work. Ugly, but I guess that it will have to do. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list grass-dev@grass.itc.it http://grass.itc.it/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
