Hi, if i start a fresh cygwin shell and I enter an asterisk at the prompt: $ * then nothing happens. That's OK, although one could expect a message like: "bash: *: command not found".
But when i execute the following Makefile:
foo:
*
make will print the following lines to stderr:
PROJECT_NAME: not found
PROJECT_NUMBER: not found
OUTPUT_DIRECTORY: not found
CREATE_SUBDIRS: not found
OUTPUT_LANGUAGE: not found
USE_WINDOWS_ENCODING: not found
BRIEF_MEMBER_DESC: not found
REPEAT_BRIEF: not found
ABBREVIATE_BRIEF: not found
ALWAYS_DETAILED_SEC: not found
INLINE_INHERITED_MEMB: not found
FULL_PATH_NAMES: not found
STRIP_FROM_PATH: not found
STRIP_FROM_INC_PATH: not found
SHORT_NAMES: not found
JAVADOC_AUTOBRIEF: not found
MULTILINE_CPP_IS_BRIEF: not found
DETAILS_AT_TOP: not found
INHERIT_DOCS: not found
DISTRIBUTE_GROUP_DOC: not found
SEPARATE_MEMBER_PAGES: not found
TAB_SIZE: not found
ALIASES: not found
OPTIMIZE_OUTPUT_FOR_C: not found
OPTIMIZE_OUTPUT_JAVA: not found
SUBGROUPING: not found
EXTRACT_ALL: not found
EXTRACT_PRIVATE: not found

HIDE_UNDOC_MEMBERS: not found
HIDE_UNDOC_CLASSES: not found
HIDE_FRIEND_COMPOUNDS: not found
HIDE_IN_BODY_DOCS: not found

CASE_SENSE_NAMES: not found
HIDE_SCOPE_NAMES: not found
SHOW_INCLUDE_FILES: not found
INLINE_INFO: not found
SORT_MEMBER_DOCS: not found
SORT_BRIEF_DOCS: not found
SORT_BY_SCOPE_NAME: not found
GENERATE_TODOLIST: not found
GENERATE_TESTLIST: not found
GENERATE_BUGLIST: not found
and then make stays in an endless loop which prints lines
y
y
y
...
to stdout
When i then kill make with Ctrl-C and enter the asterisk in the command
line, I have the same behaviour, i. e. executing '*' will give the same
messages and ends in an endless loop.
