Details:
To shorten the code, I would like to create multiple pattern rules with a
single rule.
E.g. the code below is not working as desired.
$(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/%.html \
$(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/%.js \
$(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/%.css \
$(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/%.svg \
$(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/%.ico:
@echo -n "$(FRONTEND) - building $@"
@$(MD) $(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)
@cp $(FRONTEND)/$(@F) $@
@echo " ...done"
.PHONY:
login: $(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/login.html \
$(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/login.js $(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/options.js
$(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/node.js \
$(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/login.css $(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/common.css \
$(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/logo.svg \
$(BUILD)/$(FRONTEND)/favicon.ico
@echo -n "$(FRONTEND) - building login"
@echo " ...done"
# result
# q@odysseus:~/ff$ make login
# frontend - building build/frontend/login.html ...done
# frontend - building build/frontend/options.js ...done
# frontend - building build/frontend/node.js ...done
# frontend - building build/frontend/common.css ...done
# frontend - building build/frontend/logo.svg ...done
# frontend - building build/frontend/favicon.ico ...done
# frontend - building login ...done
# q@odysseus:~/ff$ make login
# frontend - building build/frontend/login.js ...done
# frontend - building login ...done
# q@odysseus:~/ff$ make login
# frontend - building build/frontend/login.css ...done
# frontend - building login ...done
