>Well, I think you misunderstand what -j does. All it does is allow make to have multiple jobs (that is, sub-programs) active at the same time.
OK, thank you Paul for your answers. I "think" I understand what is meant by multiple-jobs: multiple targets updated. But my particular problem was during the "first pass" of make, where no targets are updated yet. During that time, I invoke "foreach" and from your first answer, it follows that it concatenates in order. Are you also saying, that the first pass of make, is always serial, period? _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
