Regarding Make Scripts
Hi

I'm well worsed in Shell Scripting on UNIX OS. But I found the script used in Make file for compiling the unix sources is quite criptic. Even though it looks some what like any other Shell Script, but I noticed lots of difference & I'm always facing difficult in understanding the code flow...

I mean, I'm not finding a definite logical/control flow that I found in any other language (viz., C/C++/java) or scripting (bsh/ksh/C shell scripts).

So, when ever I face any of the Make scripts in the work, I spend lots of time scratching my head in understanding the way/logic flows.

Hence, I need to master my self in the art of writing the Make scripts. So please help my out to how to Master my self in the writing Make scripts....

Even I searched lots of Book stores, but failed to find on such book that discuss how to write & Maintain Make Scripts...

Please do the need full..

with Advance Thanks...
Vishwa.
