Hello GNU makers,
Is there any tool/utility which can diagram the DAG of the rules/targets by
going thru the makefile? And I don't mean this in a generic way, that all sorts
of complex $(eval-ed) rules
need to be diagrammed.
What I feel is that if we have a picture of the DAG of a makefile, then we can
better understand the behavior of make. And vice versa too, we can start off
writing a makefile by drawing the DAG first & then convert that into a makefile
(the rules portion).
Considering that make is nearing 4 decades, it's hard to believe that such
utilities are not already available.
Thanks,
Rakesh
