Well that is what made sense to me, that does not work; hence my
posting the question about it.
Given the make rules:
sync%: .sync-foo-% .sync-bar-%
echo "all done"
.sync-foo-%: foo
@DEST=$(subst .sync-foo-,,$@); \
echo Sending foo file to $$DEST; \
scp ...
touch $@
.sync-bar-%: bar-%
@DEST=$(subst .sync-bar-,,$@); \
echo Sending bar file to $$DEST; \
scp ...
touch $@
and the command:
# make synctest
I still get:
Sending foo file to test
touch .sync-foo-test
Sending bar file to test
touch .sync-bar-test
echo "all done"
all done
rm .sync-foo-test .sync-bar-test
The only way I have been able to get it to work is with .PRECIOUS.
