We had a discussion about this feature a number of years ago. There was syntax proposed and discussed and possibly even a patch created although I'm not sure if it ever got to the level of finished and apply-able (one thing that I really like to see in any patch for new capabilities is new regression tests for example). The thread can be found here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/make-alpha/2002-12/msg00000.html There may have been other similar threads since, I can't remember. I'm not so thrilled about the idea of having a #pragma concept that changes the way normal rules are interpreted. _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
