Update of bug #57914 (project make): Status: None => Not A Bug Open/Closed: Open => Closed
_______________________________________________________ Follow-up Comment #6: Just as another proof that it's a feature of the shell: if you don't use the shell's built-in pwd command but instead use /bin/pwd, you'll see that just like make (also not a built-in command in the shell :-)) it shows the physical path: $ mkdir /tmp/x1 $ ln -s /tmp/x1 foo $ (cd foo && pwd) /home/me/foo $ (cd foo && /bin/pwd) /tmp/x1 I don't know about cmake, but I can only assume that it's using the PWD environment variable it inherited from the shell to determine the current working directory, rather than asking the operating system like /bin/pwd (and make) do. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57914> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
