Hi, I have the following Makefile which demonstrates my problem:
---------Begin Makefile------------ HI=$(eval HELLO=Hello) all:server client server: <tab>@echo "HELLO: $(HELLO)" <tab>@echo "HI: $(HI)" client: <tab>@echo "HELLO: $(HELLO)" <tab>@echo "HI: $(HI)" -----------End Makefile------------ If I run gmake, I get this output: HELLO: HI: HELLO: Hello HI: This thing that puzzles me is why the first line only contains "HELLO:". As per my understanding, it should be the same as line 3. If I run "gmake server" or "gmake client", I get: HELLO: HI: Again, I think the first line of output should be "HELLO: Hello" So can anyone explain why this is happening? I am running gmake 3.81 on Fedora Core 6. Thanks, --GS
