[bug #51292] Handling make rules where prerequisites are determined by functions for specific targets lists

[Paul D. Smith]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #51292 (project make):

> I dared to propose a software extension which can be similar to the
functionality “static pattern rules”. Under which circumstances can the
generic variant move into the standard functions?

I don't see any need to move something like this "into the standard
functions".  If you want to be able to define a rule using a function syntax
instead of a normal recipe syntax you can do this today with something like:


basic_rule = $1 : $2 ; $3

$(eval $(call basic_rule,target,prereq1 prereq2,recipe))
