Create a new file, output.c, and collect functions that generate output there.
We introduce a new global context specifying where output should go (to stdout
or to a sync file), and the lowest level output generator chooses where to
write output based on that context.
This allows us to set the context globally, and all operations that write
output (including functions like $(info ...) etc.) will use it.
Removed the "--trace=dir" capability. It was too confusing. If you have
directory tracking enabled then output sync will print the enter/leave message
for each synchronized block. If you don't want that, disable directory
tracking.
We tried to get some efficiency by avoiding a parse_file_seq() for simple
pattern prerequisites, but this also means no wildcard expansion was
happening, so add it back. Add regression tests for wildcards in target and
prerequisite lists.
This allows you to write portable makefiles that set GNU make-specific command
line options in the environment or makefile: add them to GNUMAKEFLAGS instead
of MAKEFLAGS and they will be seen by GNU make but ignored by other
implementations of make.
This mode replaces the previous heuristic setting enabled with -O, where we
would log directory enter/leave for each synchronized output. Now we only
do that if --trace=dir is given.
If output-sync is enabled, have make write the command line to the temp file
instead of printing it directly to the screen to ensure that the output is
ordered properly. Also, remove extraneous enter/leave operations by having
them printed directly when dumping temp file output.
If we are not going to sync a command line then dump any collected output
first to preserve ordering. Do some code cleanup:
* Move the handle init to a separate function.
* Move the temp file truncation to the output function.
* Remember whether we sync in a variable for readability.
* Handle EINTR and short writes in child_out().
* Always call sync_output() in case output_sync was changed due to error.
load.c (load_object, load_file): Accept an additional argument
DLP and return in it a pointer that can be used to unload the
dynamic object.
read.c (eval): Call load_file with an additional argument, and
record the pointer returned there in the 'struct file' object of
dynamic objects in that object's 'struct file'.
commands.c (execute_file_commands): Unload dynamic objects
before remaking them, to avoid failure to remake if the OS doesn't
allow overwriting objects that are in use.
filedef.h (struct file): New member dlopen_ptr.
gnumake.h (GMK_EXPORT): Define to dllexport/dllimport
decorations for Windows and to nothing on other platforms.
(gmk_eval, gmk_expand, gmk_add_function): Add GMK_EXPORT qualifier
to prototypes.
makeint.h (MAIN): Define before including gnumake.h, to give
correct dllexport decorations to exported functions.
(load_file): Adjust prototype.
loadapi.c: Don't include gnumake.h, since makeint.h already
includes it, and takes care of defining MAIN before doing so.
build_w32.bat (LinkGCC): Produce an import library for functions
exported by Make for loadable dynamic objects.
w32/compat/posixfcn.c (dlclose): New function.
w32/include/dlfcn.h (dlclose): Add prototype.
scripts/features/load: Fix signatures of testload_gmk_setup and
explicit_setup, to bring them in line with the documentation.
Enhance the child_error() function so that it will write error output to the
child's sync output buffer, if it exists. If it doesn't the output goes to
stdout/stderr.
A new flag to the -O/--output-sync, "job", selects a per-job (that is, per
line of a recipe) output synchronization. To support this move the close of
the temp file out of the sync_output() function and don't do it until we free
the child, since we may call sync_output() multiple times in a given recipe.
When we set up for a new temp file, if we're in per-job mode we truncate the
file and seek to the beginning to re-use it for every job.
Provide a simple API for loaded objects to interact with GNU make. I still
won't guarantee that this API won't change but it's much closer to something
that's supported and provides easy-to-use interfaces with a public header
file.
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.
