    _______________________________________________________

Details:

Follow the  [STEP 1] to [STEP 5] to get the output.

[STEP 1]:Create and edit test.h file as shown below.

[r...@centos_vmware example]#vi test.h

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

void PRINT()
{
   cout<<"This is a test\n";

}
~
~
~

[STEP 2]: Create and edit test.cpp file as shown below.

[r...@centos_vmware example]# vi test.cpp

#include "test.h"

int main(){

  PRINT();

  return 0;

}

~
~
[STEP 3]: run make command as below (without creating any Makefile)

[r...@centos_vmware example]# make test.o
g++    -c -o test.o test.cpp
[r...@centos_vmware example]#

[STEP 4]:Edit test.h file and change the output text as below.

[r...@centos_vmware example]# vi test.h

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

void PRINT()
{
   cout<<"test complete\n";
   
}
~
~
~
[STEP 5]: run make command again

[r...@centos_vmware example]# make test.o
make: `test.o' is up to date.


Expected:
I was expecting the make tool to check the timestamp of both .h and .cpp and
recompile .cpp to create .o files.
