That sounds unlikely to be a bug with make, so the help-make list would be more appropriate. The make maintainer has a paper on dependencies which you can find here:
http://web.archive.org/web/20061205233409/http://make.paulandlesley.org/ autodep.html That focuses on automatic generation of the dependencies but you can probably work out where you're going wrong from it... and you probably also want to generate the dependencies automatically. If that doesn't help, you'll need to post a copy of your makefile or, preferably, an minimal part of it that demonstrates your problem. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of sreerajgel Sent: Sunday, August 05, 2007 23:55 To: Bug-make@gnu.org Subject: Problem with make... hai all, am really lost with this...plz help...i have a C, HDR and DEP folder under the root folder...as names suggest C folder contains all the source files HDR contains all the headers and I created the dependencies and put them in to the DEP folder. I have included the path of .d files in DEP in my makefile. My problem is, when I modify any header and then try to recompile its not taking the dependencies. ie the source files in which this particular headers are included are not getting recompiled...but if I modify any source file and then recompiles its compiling that file...Simply, the changes I make in HDR are not getting affected in the Build...i hope u understand and plz tell me where i should have gone wrong Thanks for the support -- _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
