hi, i found in the end of a main-makefile target: xxx @[ "$(origin $(*))" != "undefined" ] && echo "$($(*))"
`make -f that-makefile goal` is called from shell script i tried to call a test makefile with and without goal make and make <goal> and i thought i could find the goal in $0 or $1 .. . is there a automatic variable that tells me whether an explicit goal was given as argument. and what is $*. in which cases it can be != 'undefined' ( result from $(origin $(*)) ) thanks in advance andreas _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
