I wonder if someone can help me here. Here's an excerpt from
xforms/forms/Makefile.am. How can I make the .fd -> .[Ch] step sensitive to
any changes in $(srcdir)/fdfix.sh, $(srcdir)/fdfix[ch].sed?
The obvious
.fd.C: $(srcdir)/fdfix.sh
$(SHELL) $(SCRIPT) $<
has no effect.
Second question: should we have a configure test for the presence of fdesign?
Angus
# These are used to generate the .[Ch] files from the .fd ones.
# It would be nice if we could make the .Ch files dependent on the fdfix
files.
SHELL = /bin/sh
SCRIPT = $(srcdir)/fdfix.sh
SUFFIXES = .fd
SRCS = form_aboutlyx.fd \
form_bibitem.fd \
...
libfdesign_la_SOURCES = $(SRCS:.fd=.C) $(SRCS:.fd=.h)
libfdesign.la: $(libfdesign_la_OBJECTS) $(libfdesign_la_DEPENDENCIES)
.fd.C:
$(SHELL) $(SCRIPT) $<
