NAME

       shape_depend - shapeTools RMS determine source-include dependencies

SYNOPSIS

       shape depend [VERSIONS=<selection_rule>] [variants]

DESCRIPTION

       The shape release management system requires for each node system a file named Dependencies, listing the source-derived dependencies of the
       node components. shape depend automatically determines these dependencies and creates an appropriate Dependencies  file.  The  dependencies
       have the form of regular Makefile target-dependents lines without associated build action.

	   Note:  shape  depend  only  works for development of C programs.  It additionally requires a C compiler supporting the -M (generate
	   Makefile dependencies) option.  If this is not the case in your development project, you must either rewrite the action  associated
	   with the depend target (in $(SHAPELIBPATH)/stdtargets) or maintain the Dependencies files manually.

       The  VERSIONS  macro  defines  the  version  selection  rule  to  be  used.  Default is most_recent. See shape_stdrul(7) or the $(SHAPELIB-
       PATH)/stdrules file for other possible settings. You may also use self defined version selection rules as VERSIONS rule.

       If your development environment contains variant definitions, in especially variant definitions that modify the list of	source	components
       to  be  used  during  a	build  operation,  you may also need to specify one or more variants to be set. The project wide variant raster is
       defined in $(SHAPELIBPATH)/stdvar. Check this file and the default variant settings in your Shapefile before invoking shape depend.

INCONVENIENCES

       Regeneration of the Dependencies file due to structural changes of the node system has to be triggered manually. Shape RMS  doesn't  recog-
       nize such changes.

       Variant	specific  Dependencies files (necessary when simultaneousky developing structurally different variants) are not supported. In this
       case you have to run shape depend prior to each build action.
