Thanks, I will try that. I have one more question.
I see that if I do a ctrl c then fatal_error_signal function is called.
Now the problem is if I am trapping ctrl c in makefile then
fatal_error_signal is not called...
Is this expected?
I want to trap the signal in makefile to print the status.

I don't know what you mean.
It's not possible to "trap CTRL-C in
Hi Paul,
Sorry, that was part of my earlier email - I understand that this is not
possible currently. The question was - if I wanted to implement the behavior in
make itself, would I have to basically write my own make? I know that Guile is
a choice for extending make with custom code, but it s
I handle SIGINT (ctrl+c) like this in the makefile -
trap 'USER_INT=1; /bin/echo "terminating, please wait"' INT;
This traps SIGINT.
Thanks

That is not valid makefile syntax. If you put that directly into a
makefile, by itself, you'll get a syntax error:
sorry to not be clear -
see this how it works in makefile. It is part of the target -
bash-4.1$ cat Makefile
a1:
trap 'USER_INT=1; /bin/echo "terminating, please wait"' INT; \
sleep 100
bash-4.1$ make
trap 'USER_INT=1; /bin/echo "terminating, please wait"' INT; \
