Re: how can i get a list of prerequisites for a target

[bhaskar . g]

Hi Paul,

If I need to have this details else where, not in the command script. Is it 
possible?.

eg:

my makefile contains
"
include test.mk
all: a b c d
"
i am including a file test.mk in the makefile. In this test.mk I need to do the 
following
if d is mentioned in the all target I need to include
d.mk

Thanks for your help

Regards
bhaskar

  bg> How can I get the list of prerequisites for the target all.

If you mean within the command script, then you can use the $^ automatic
variable:

    all: lib target java idl
            @echo $^

See the GNU make manual section on automatic variables for the complete
list.
