Sure. This example in the manual uses .PHONY that way: http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Special-Variables.html I find it clearer to keep a target and its .PHONY dependency together: .PHONY: x x: prerequisites commands ... .PHONY: y y: ... The manual says the prerequisites of .PHONY are combined: http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Prerequisite-Types.html | Also, you may still declare multiple lines of prerequisites for the | same target: they are appended appropriately. _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
