Follow-up Comment #7, bug #51292 (project make): > If you want a "callback"-like setup you can already do it with eval and call:
This approach might be an approximation which can work as usual for a while. > Personally I'm not convinced this is useful in general... I dared to propose a software extension which can be similar to the functionality “static pattern rules”. Under which circumstances can the generic variant move into the standard functions? > But if you had one set of global makefiles that defined all the templates, etc. then used data-driven variable assignments to do the rest I suppose it might be useful. Thanks that you can follow in this software design direction. I imagine that make rule construction can become more dynamic. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51292> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
