Hi,
this is not a real bug report, but a feature request.
We are using automake in the GNU MPFR project. Thank you for this program!
In our "make check" target, automake produces:
check-am: all-am
$(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) $(check_LTLIBRARIES) $(check_PROGRAMS)
$(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) check-TESTS
However when cross-compiling, we'd like to only build the tests binaries,
not run them on the build machine.
Thus it would be nice to have a separate target (say check-build) that would
only build the check programs, not run them:
check-build:
$(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) $(check_LTLIBRARIES) $(check_PROGRAMS)
check-am: all-am check-build
$(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) check-TESTS
Best regards,
Paul Zimmermann
