I've been reviewing the dependencies, and I'm pretty certain they're
all explicitly stated. It's not a very complex Makefile, it's just
got a lot of targets.
I'll attempt a description of my dependency setup:
TARGET.send depends on TARGET.email
pattern rule = %.send: %.email
TARGET.email depends on on TARGET.xml TARGET.html TARGET.text TARGET.data
pattern rule = %.email: %.xml %.html %.text %.data
TARGET.xml depends on DUMMY which is .PHONY meaning TARGET.xml is
always rebuilt.
TARGET.data depends on TARGET.xml (maybe unnecessarily)
pattern rule = %.data: %.xml
TARGET.html depends on TARGET.xml and TARGET.data
TARGET.text depends on TARGET.xml and TARGET.data
Additionally:
TARGET.email depends on <emailtemplate> and <locale>.
TARGET.html depends on <htmltemplate> and <locale>.
TARGET.text depends on <texttemplate> and <locale>.
TARGET.data depends on <label>.
The templates don't change, and label and locale are .PHONY.
A typical invocation will have "all: targetlist", and targetlist
will list e.g. 5000 "TARGET.send" targets.
I hope this makes sense.
