Try `gmake -pq' to print the internal database. It shows you the values of the variables as well as where in the makefile or included makefiles they are defined. It also shows you each dependency relationship along with the same location information. > Is there any visual tools available for Make to have the graphical > view of one or all the files involved in the project along with > resolution of dependency check. Now this would be really nice. Unfortunately, GNU make itself does not have this feature. There may be branches of GNU make which offer this but they would most likely be based on an older version of make and of limited value.
