| | | | | | Allows deprecated syntax. However we don't guarantee this syntax will continue to be legal in the future. Change suggested by David Boyce <david.s.boyce@gmail.com>
* * NEWS: Fix version so we can build a distfile.Paul Smith2013-10-191-1/+1

|
* Reset GNUMAKEFLAGS after parsing.Paul Smith2013-09-291-3/+6
| | | | | If we don't do this we'll continually add flags on recursion. This is mainly for users to set in their environment before invoking make.
* Release GNU Make version 3.99.92.3.99.92Paul Smith2013-09-231-2/+2
|
* Add VMS port updates from Hartmut Becker.Paul Smith2013-09-221-2/+2

* [SV 35248] Add --debug "n" flag to turn off current debug options.Paul Smith2013-09-141-3/+4
|
* Enhance the output sync mode.Paul Smith2013-09-121-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create a new file, output.c, and collect functions that generate output there. We introduce a new global context specifying where output should go (to stdout or to a sync file), and the lowest level output generator chooses where to write output based on that context. This allows us to set the context globally, and all operations that write output (including functions like $(info ...) etc.) will use it. Removed the "--trace=dir" capability. It was too confusing. If you have directory tracking enabled then output sync will print the enter/leave message for each synchronized block. If you don't want that, disable directory tracking.
* Create a new variable MAKE_HOST providing the host architecture.Paul Smith2013-05-271-0/+4
|
* Add dates to the NEWS file to make things simpler.Paul Smith2013-05-261-20/+20

|
* Update copyright for changes in 2013.Paul Smith2013-05-171-1/+1
|
* Add a new variable: GNUMAKEFLAGSPaul Smith2013-05-131-6/+13
| | | | | | | This allows you to write portable makefiles that set GNU make-specific command line options in the environment or makefile: add them to GNUMAKEFLAGS instead of MAKEFLAGS and they will be seen by GNU make but ignored by other implementations of make.
* Mention in NEWS change on Windows with quotes in command lines.Eli Zaretskii2013-05-011-0/+9
|
* Add support for per-job output sync.Paul Smith2013-04-281-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | A new flag to the -O/--output-sync, "job", selects a per-job (that is, per line of a recipe) output synchronization. To support this move the close of the temp file out of the sync_output() function and don't do it until we free the child, since we may call sync_output() multiple times in a given recipe. When we set up for a new temp file, if we're in per-job mode we truncate the file and seek to the beginning to re-use it for every job.
* Create an open_tmpfd() function to return temp files by FD. Use it.Paul Smith2013-04-161-2/+8
|
* Implement new "load" directive.Paul Smith2012-10-291-1/+6
| | | | | Provides support for dynamically loadable objects in GNU make, as a "technology preview".
* Simplify copyrights using ranges of years.Paul Smith2012-03-051-4/+2
| | | | | The new GNU Maintainer's Manual allows the use of year ranges in certain situations; take advantage of this simplification.
* Modify backslash/newline handling for POSIX.Paul Smith2012-03-031-5/+6
| | | | | | | | | | We fixed Savannah 16670 but that broke previously-working makefiles that relied on the GNU make behavior. The POSIX behavior doesn't seem to me to be better, and can be obtained using GNU make as well, so put it back as the default behavior and require .POSIX to get the POSIX behavior. Add a new section to the manual discussing backslash/newline handling. Update the test suite.
* Add support for "::=" simple assignment operator.Paul Smith2012-01-301-0/+6
| | | | | The next POSIX standard will define "::=" to have the same behavior as GNU make's ":=", so add support for this new operator.
* Create a new function $(file ...)Paul Smith2012-01-291-6/+8
|
* Update copyright notices.Paul Smith2012-01-161-4/+5
|
* Add GNU Guile as an optional embedded scripting language for make.Paul Smith2012-01-151-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | On configure-enabled systems, configure will detect Guile installed (using pkg-config, which is how GNU Guile is distributed) and enable it if so. On all non-configure-enabled systems, currently, the default is for Guile support to be disabled.
* Support jobserver capability on Windows systems.Paul Smith2011-11-141-1/+4
| | | | Implementation contributed by Troy Runkel <Troy.Runkel@mathworks.com>
