RE : keep going in GNU Make version 3.79.1

[Srikanth Madani]

Hi all,

Can someone please tell me if my understanding of the "-k" flag in gmake is 
correct :

        xyzMD : a b c
                $(RULE_TO_MAKE_xyzMD)
Behaviour without the "-k" flag : If there is a syntax error in a for instance, 
then the other pre-requisites b and c will not be processed as xyzMD cannot be 
linked anyway.
Behaviour with the "-k" flag : Even if there is a syntax error in a, 
pre-requisites b and c will be processed.


Best regards,
