[PATCH] scripts/tags.sh: Exit gracefully if *tags tool not found

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If the needed host utility is not found, current behavior is:

$> make cscope
  GEN     cscope
./scripts/tags.sh: line 140: cscope: command not found
$> make gtags
  GEN     gtags
./scripts/tags.sh: line 145: gtags: command not found
$> make tags
  GEN     tags
xargs: ctags: No such file or directory
sed: can't read tags: No such file or directory
Makefile:1509: recipe for target 'tags' failed
make: *** [tags] Error 2
$> make TAGS
  GEN     TAGS
xargs: etags: No such file or directory
sed: can't read TAGS: No such file or directory
Makefile:1509: recipe for target 'TAGS' failed
make: *** [TAGS] Error 2

This patch allows to exit gracefully in such a situation:

$> make cscope
  GEN     cscope
cscope - not installed?
$> make gtags
  GEN     gtags
gtags - not installed?
$> make tags
  GEN     tags
ctags - not installed?
$> make TAGS
  GEN     TAGS
etags - not installed?
