Hello, I think I found a documentation issue in the GNU make manual.
Section 5.3 of the GNU make manual *implies *that $(@D) and $(@F) expand to
the prerequisite path and file respectively, but section 10.5.3 says they
expand according to the filename of the target.
https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Execution See the
following excerpts from the manual: 5.3 Recipe Execution
foo : bar/lose
cd $(@D) && gobble $(@F) > ../$@
*10.5.3 Automatic Variables*
*‘$(@D)’*
The directory part of the file name of the target, with the trailing slash
removed. If the value of ‘$@’ is dir/foo.o then ‘$(@D)’ is dir. This value
is . if ‘$@’ does not contain a slash.
*‘**$(@F)**’*
The file-within-directory part of the file name of the target. If the value
of ‘$@’ is dir/foo.o then ‘$(@F)’ is foo.o. ‘$(@F)’ is equivalent to ‘$(notdir
$@)’.
Thanks,
Peter
