Hello,
I'm wondering how to generate multiple files with different extensions
from one centralized file source (source in m4 in my application but I
won't explains unwanted details here).
The Makefile looks like (as simple as possible):
LIST = file.out1 file.out2
all: $(LIST)
%.out1 %.out2: %.source
cat $< > $@
Basicly, I want the file named "file.source" to be outputed to
file.out1 and file.out2 (they will be the same in this example).
$ touch file.source
$ make all
cat file.source > file.out1
#make has generated the first file.
$ make all
cat file.source > file.out2
#the second.
I just don't understand why make can't build several files from the
same target at the same time...
make think file.out2 has been updated ?
Is there a bug in my Makefile ? How should I do ?
I use "GNU Make version 3.79"
