Dear all: I read the document about make recently. I have some questions: 1. in example 1 list below that excerpted from document, there are 2 disadvantages: 1. Cannot see the error. 2. Cannot use parallel execution. So the doc uses modification 1 to fix them, but if I use modification 2, I will also fix them, right? Except I cannot force make to rerun it every time, if there is already a file called subdirs. Appreciate your help, vichy Example1: SUBDIRS = foo bar baz subdirs: for dir in $(SUBDIRS); do \ $(MAKE) -C $$dir; \ done Modification 1: SUBDIRS = foo bar baz .PHONY: subdirs $(SUBDIRS) subdirs: $(SUBDIRS) $(SUBDIRS): $(MAKE) -C $@ foo: baz modification 2: SUBDIRS = foo bar baz .PHONY: $(SUBDIRS) subdirs: $(SUBDIRS) $(SUBDIRS): $(MAKE) -C $@ foo: baz -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
