Hello,
My makefile looks as follows:
aa::
touch $@
../bb::
touch $@
Now I invoke the followin sequence
$ gmake aa
touch aa
$ gmake aa
gmake: `aa' is up to date.
$ gmake ../bb
touch ../bb
$ gmake ../bb
touch ../bb
As you can see, the rule for ../bb is always execute regardless if ../bb exist or not.
Here is an excerpt from debug log for 'aa':
Considering target file `aa'.
Finished prerequisites of target file `aa'.
No need to remake target `aa'.
And here is an excerpt from debug log for '../bb':
Considering target file `../bb'.
Finished prerequisites of target file `../bb'.
Target `../bb' is double-colon and has no prerequisites.
Must remake target `../bb'.
Can anybody explain to me this behaviour?
