B20.1: make dependencies broken

Thu Jan 27 11:38:00 GMT 2000

Hmm... Is you Makefile example correct? I redid it like this:
------------------------------
NTTOOLSDIR = /tmp
NTTOOLS = f1.bat \
 f2.bat
All: $(NTTOOLS)
$(NTTOOLS): % : $(NTTOOLSDIR)/%
 # making $@ due to $?
 cp $? $@
--------------------------------
I then did 
mkdir /tmp/maketest
cd /tmp/maketest
create above Makefile
touch /tmp/f1.bat /tmp/f2.bat
make
 This gave me the expected results.
touch /tmp/f2.bat
make
 This gave me the expected results.
touch /tmp/f1.bat
make
 This gave me the expected results.
make
 Everything current, great, that was the expected result.
cd ..
make -f maketest/Makefile
 Everything current, great, that was the expected result.
