* Why not just write it in a longer $(shell ...) function? One of the
* nicest things about Bourne shell, unlike the horrible C shell, is that
* you can write just about any script without needing newlines at all.
*
* Why not something like (note, entirely untested...):
*
Thanks for the idea...
Here's the working code...
build-ver=$(strip $(1)build$(shell n=$(shell \
( [ -f .build_num ] && expr `cat .build_num` + 1 ) \
|| echo 1 ) ; echo $$n>.build_num; echo $$n ))
REL:=$(call build-ver,4)
I'm sure someone can optimize it more than that, but it's giving me
something to play with, thanks
richard.
