ok - got that straight now - one more:
---Makefile---
files_a := $(wildcard *.c)
files_b = $(wildcard *.c)
.PHONY: show
show:
touch junk.c
@echo $(files_a)
@echo $(files_b)
rm -f junk.c
@echo $(files_a)
@echo $(files_b)
------
So now I'm using functions and variables only but this still will not work
Scanned the Make manual again - but have not found an answer to the question
Are functions expanded befor execution of any target commands ??
This now will not list junk.c at all ?
thanks
hofrat
