As we de facto are requiring to use our own fork of Make anyway (aren't we?), couldn't we add "touch", "mkdir" and "cp" functions to Make? Implementing those should be fairly trivial. If we don't want to require our own Make fork, we could wrap these in gbuild macros that check the Make version and call external commands instead if needed. While at it, we could then add a"ifeq" and "ifneq" functions (don't confuse with the line-based "ifeq" and "ifneq" directives processed while reading in makefiles). That would enable making many of the conditionals easier to understand, I think. Such macros would be harder to wrap portably, though, I think. --tml _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
