Good idea. Please implement the fragment below as writes to $@.tmp followed by "mv $@.tmp $@", otherwise an interrupted "make", or some kind of error, can result in a partial version.py. In theory "make" is supposed to delete version.py in some of those cases but my experience is that life is easier if you don't have to worry about it at all. > +ALL_LOCAL += $(srcdir)/python/ovs/version.py > +$(srcdir)/python/ovs/version.py: config.status > + $(ro_shell) > $@ > + echo 'VERSION = "$(VERSION)"' >> $@ > + echo 'BUILDNR = "$(BUILDNR)"' >> $@ _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
