My understanding is that you want to run a command if any of the targets are out of date, but only once, not once for each target.
Yep, entirely correct.
Indeed, an interesting idea to touch the config file and turn the dependencies around.
BUT:
a) It will only work when updating an existing set of files, not with creating them initially ("No rule to make target 'a.txt' needed by 'abcd.conf'")
b) It will not produce correct results in my case, as the same config file is used by several different scripts to generate targets (sometimes only one, sometimes 256 in one go)
I found a solution. Not nice, but I have to generate the makefile anyway...
Looks like GNU make re-evaluates all targets after each run of a rule. Lets see how it copes with all ~8500 rules of the project...

Hi All
I need to parse the target
something like:
ifeq '$@' 'first'
echo 1 $@
endif
ifeq '$@' 'second'
echo 2 $@
endif
The thing is to be able compare the target string to any string and then do the commands
Thanks a lot

Greetings!
I'm fairly new to the unix world and I hope someone here can help me with my question. I'm using a Makefile to run a few programs and the final output is several .eps files. However I need them to be .pdf files, so I want to use epstopdf to convert the files.

Hi All
I am creating a makefile and I want to do a clean section.
In the clean section I would like to check if the file exists and then delete it.
I always have an error 'unexpected end of file'
What's wrong in it?
Thanks

Perl for WinCE
Description
This file gives the instructions for building Perl5.6 and above for WinCE. Please read and understand the terms under which this software
is distributed.
Build
This section describes the steps to be performed to build PerlCE.
Tools & SDK
For compiling, you need Microsoft Embedded Visual Tools, my celib-sources, my console-sources and a perl for win32.
Needed source files can be downloaded via: www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/dirlist.html
Some portions of the makefile need a shell for win32, rm, cp, mv, xmkdir (mkdir with a -p option). It also uses my cecopy program for
copying files to the ce device.
Make
Miniperl is not built. A pre-existent win32 perl is used.
The paths for tools and additional libraries have to be changed in wince/makefile.ce.
Different ce targets can be specified with the TARGET macro.
Before you start, you need to build celib.dll and w32console. See instructions in these packages for building.
In the wince directory, type "nmake -f makefile.ce". This should build perl.exe and perl.dll. For building extension dlls, type "nmake -f
makefile.ce dlls"
When building ext dlls, you get lots of macro redefinition errors. Just ignore them.
For further information, look in the text files in the wince sub-directory.
Acknowledgements
The port for Win32 was used as a reference.
