Hello,
Maybe I oversaw something, but I think, it should work. What I do:
/----- notCalledMakefile -----
# a Makefile, that isn't called Makefile
include foo.make
test-foo: foo
bar:
$(MAKE) foo
\--------------------
/----- foo.make -----
# foo.make
foo:
@echo "Just a test."
\--------------------
If I try to call the bar target, I get the error:
$ make -F notCalledMakefile bar
make foo
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/dl/test/make'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `foo'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/dl/test/make'
make: *** [bar] Error 2
But if I rename this file to Makefile, everything works. Is this
intended behaviour? If yes, why? Where can I read more about it? The
current workaround is to set MAKEFILES += $(CURDIR)/notCalledMakefile to
make this work.
Regards, Daniel
