Hi All, I am not subscribed (yet?) to the help-make, I am in the bug-make, so when replying make sure I am in the cc list.
My question is, is there some well knows .mk sample files that define commonly used features implemented as variables (and then as functions eventually). I am asking because I found make very powerfull, and with all the fondamentals to buildup more powerfull construct, a bit like if make implement all the basic section2, and the upper lever section3 is to be defined in a .mk For instance I endup writing a lot of tiny obvious utilities that I am sure other have written in the past like - defining empty, space, comma - Ignoring a variable that was set in the make invocation environment (dangerouse variable to use if exported). check if a variable was explicilty given in the runstring. - Accept a variable from the runstring in a comma separated list be normalise it as a space separated list. I.e typing make x=a b c' is the same as make x=a,b,c The given examples here focus on the runstring but I got many other vras/func not related to runstring but as trivial. So I wonder if there is a site, or a git repos, with such definitions, we could call a library, i.e makelib.mk that would define a set of utilities. Thanx in advance, Cheers, Phi _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list Help-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
