Really? I don't think I've ever witnessed 'ar' failing to include object files that were just created. Do you have a separate test case that reproduces that behavior? In any case that doesn't seem to the problem in Michael's post. The final link command is failing to find app1.o. The archive is already built successfully. The app1.o in this example doesn't actually use anything from the library, so even if lib.a was missing some object files I think the link would still succeed (assuming app1.o was created before the link command). I don't see why Michael's example should fail, but I can reproduce the behavior with 3.81 and 3.82. Also Michael, just a heads-up that in your example the Compile rule isn't actually used, since src/%.c doesn't match anything (there's no src/ directory). Removing src/ from that line doesn't fix the problem, though. -Mike _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
