Hi,
in the manual of GNU make I have found the following statement: pattern rules (see section Static Pattern Rules). The System V make rule: $(targets): $$@.o lib.a can be replaced with the GNU make static pattern rule: $(targets): %: %.o lib.a this works well, but I need a replacement for $(targets): $$(@F) cp $? $@ chmod 0444 $@ and $(targets): %: $(notdir %) does not work. Should this work or is there no replacement for this System V make rule? TIA, S. Wanka -- All opinions are mine. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
