make
Usage Note
to the full name of the target. When building a library, it expands to the
name of the archive library. For example, if the target is:
mylib(member)
$@ expands to:
mylib
$% The full target name. When building a normal target, this macro evaluates
to the full name of the target. When building a library, it expands to the
name of the archive member. For example, if the target is:
mylib(member)
$% expands to:
member
$& The list of all prerequisites.
$? The list of all prerequisites that are newer than the target.
$^ The list of all prerequisites taken from the list specified on the rule line of
the recipe where the $^ appears.
$< In inference rules, it evaluates to the single prerequisite that caused the
execution of the rule. In normal rules it evaluates the same as $?.
$> The name of the library if the current target is a library member.
$* The target name with no suffix ($(%:db)) or the value of the stem in a
metarule.
The constructs $$@, $$%, $$>, and $$* can appear in a prerequisite list as dynamic
prerequisites. $$@ stands for the target currently being made. For example:
fred : $$@.c
fred : fred.c
are equivalent. The construct can be modified, as in:
fred.o : $$(@:b).c
The runtime macros can be modified by the letters D and F to indicate only the
directory portion of the target name or only the file portion of the target name. (The
working directory is represented by a dot.) If define.h is the only prerequisite that is
newer than the target, the macros $?D and $?F expand to dot ( .) and to define.h.
If you are building a library, $$% stands for the name of the archive member being
made. If you are building a normal target, $$% stands for the name of the target
currently being made.
$$* stands for the name of the current target being made, but with no suffix.
If you are building a library, $$> stands for the name of the archive library being
made. If you are not building a library, $$> is not valid.
Comments begin with the pound (#) character and extend to the end of the line.
make discards all comment text.
