Dear Yegappan,
Recently you've been proposing (and Bram has accepted) to create a lot
of new source files to make the existing source easier to understand.
The notion is laudable but it doesn't work well with my shadow
directories: every time there is a new .c source (or .h; .pro sources
are taken care of automatically by virtue of their being in a special
src/proto directory for which a symlink has ben creted once and for
all in the shadow directory), I have to manually create a symlink
newsourcename.c -> ../newsourcename.c in each shadow directory,
otherwise the "make" step ends in error with "No rule to make
newsourcename.c. Stop.".
Do you think the following rule (added to the src/Makefile which is
soft-linked from every shadow directory) could take care of my problem
without undesired side-effects?
*: ../$@
ln -sv ../$@
The idea is to create a link if a needed file exist inthe parent (src)
directory but not in the current (shadow) directory. Maybe the target
sould be made less general to avoid using this rule out of turn.
I have proposed this to Bram but AFAIK he has neither answered my
proposal but taken action on it.
Best regards,
Tony.
