Hi, I'm using a make program similar to gnu make. I'd like to always recompile a file whenever ANY file is compiled (or assembled). Preferably (but not absolutely necessary), I'd like the file to recompile if the linker runs as well, but this sounds really tough. In case you're wondering, this file contains a global array that has time and date stamp information in it so we can tell when the project was last built.
Some engineers don't like a simple "delete the object file always when make runs" approach because if you inadvertently run make a second time, you get a recompile even if no sources changed. Any ideas on how to do this? Thanks much, Jim
