Follow-up Comment #6, bug #17873 (project make): I find the proposed solution confusing, in that it uses a dependency to affect how other dependencies on the same list are built. As far as I know that would be the only use of such semantics in make.
I'd prefer a solution on the lines of patch #5108, as it is more consistent with current behavior. It is also consistent with the solutions adopted by other makes (such as SCO make). Unfortunately .NOTPARALLEL is somewhat stillborn as it is a global switch, and some makefiles may be using it, so we'd have to use some other special target. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17873> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
