Hi,
I try to use intensivly the Static Pattern Rules in my makefile :
targets ...: target-pattern: dep-patterns ...
commands
I am facing to the following problem. I would like to build the
dep-patterns part with a script taking as argument the stem.
Here a example of a such makefile.
====================================================
target = fit
DATABASE_FILES = $(target)
all: $(DATABASE_FILES)
$(target): %: $(shell ./script %)
@echo "Run all the target : $^"
====================================================
In this makefile, $(target) is "fit". So the stem is "fit" in the
Static Pattern Rules.
This is not working because the stem (%) is resolved AFTER to have
launched the script.
The script is launched with the argument "%" in place of "fit".
So makefile launch "script %" and build my dependencies with it.
I was expecting the stem is resolved before.
And then makefile should have launch "script fit" to build my
dependencies.
Is there a way to avoid that ?
In this test case, he script looks like :
#!/bin/sh
source="$1";
if [ $source = "fit" ]; then
echo "a$source";
fi
It is not working because, $1 and so $source is "%" in place of "fit".
Regards
Thibaut
