We fixed Savannah 16670 but that broke previously-working makefiles
that relied on the GNU make behavior. The POSIX behavior doesn't
seem to me to be better, and can be obtained using GNU make as well,
so put it back as the default behavior and require .POSIX to
get the POSIX behavior.
Add a new section to the manual discussing backslash/newline handling.
Update the test suite.
- Fix Savannah bug #17752
- Test suite:
* When tests fail keep a "run" file containing the command invoked.
* Support for the Valgrind "memcheck" and "massif" tools.
Allows the user to reset the prefix character for introducing recipe lines
from the default (tab) to any other single character, and back again.
Also, reworked the manual to consistently use the word "recipe" to describe
the set of commands we use to update a target, instead of the various
phrases used in the past: "commands", "command lines", "command scripts",
etc.
I decided this feature was too impacting to make the permanent default
behavior. This set of changes makes the default behavior of make the
old behavior (no second expansion). If you want second expansion, you
must define the .SECONDEXPANSION: special target before the first target
that needs it.
This set of changes ONLY fixes explicit and static pattern rules to work
like this. Implicit rules still have second expansion enabled all the
time: I'll work on that next.
Note that there is still a backward-incompatibility: now to get the old
SysV behavior using $$@ etc. in the prerequisites list you need to set
.SECONDEXPANSION: as well.
check for this and exit with an error.
The closeout.c version from gnulib pulls in too much other stuff, and
gnulib requires an ANSI C 89 compliant compiler, while GNU make (so far)
still wants to work on K&R.
* New function: $(info ...)
* Disallow $(eval ...) to create prereq relationships inside command scripts
(caused core dumps)
* Try to allow more tests to succeed in Windows/DOS by sanitizing CRLF and \
* Various bug fixes and code cleanups (see the ChangeLog entry)
