Martin Panter added the comment: Here is another possible option. It is still a bit of a hack, because the configure script inserts comments into the makefile, but this is already done e.g. with @EXPORT_MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET@. The advantage is we get to keep the filenames of the dependencies in the makefile, so it should be easier to read and maintain. And we get to eliminate the $(cross_compiling) check as well.
In native compiling mode, everything should be as normal. When cross-compiling, the rules for regenerating files should read like Python/importlib.h: # $(srcdir)/Lib/importlib/_bootstrap.py Programs/_freeze_importlib ./Programs/_freeze_importlib \ $(srcdir)/Lib/importlib/_bootstrap.py Python/importlib.h Since the Python/importlib.h should already exist, the rule in this form (dependencies commented out) won’t be run, and Make won’t need to build Programs/_freeze_importlib either. ---------- stage: -> patch review versions: +Python 3.5 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file43933/comment-out-regen.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27641> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
