Hi, we use 'make' primarily for compilation of C++ code using g++ under Linux. Working in a scientific environment we constantly need to test our programs on some data. As we found 'make' to be a convenient utility we use it not only for compilation of the binaries but also for running test cycles on our data, i.e., we use it to launch our binary, somehow like that: # make test.data which then constructs a command line like this # /path/to/binary [args] > test.data The problem is that the output in 'test.data' differs from the output obtained by running the very same command line manually. Anybody got an idea what might be the reason? Isn't 'make' suitable for running executables? Regards, Andreas
