Semicolons don't appear to be parsed properly in
target-specific variable definitions. A workaround is
required to do much shell work there. Example:
GNU Make version 3.79, by Richard Stallman and Roland
McGrath.
Makefile:
# Non target-specific
BAR1 = ";"
foo1 :
echo $(BAR1)
# Target-specific
foo2 : BAR2 = ";"
foo2 :
echo $(BAR2)
# Workaround
BAR3 = ";"
foo3 : BAR2 = $(BAR3)
foo3 :
echo $(BAR2)
Command-line:
>make foo1
echo ";"
;
>make foo2
echo ";
>make foo3
echo ";"
;
Hope this report is useful. I love the new
target-specific variable definitions! Thanks,
Andrew
