Hello,
I know this must be a dumb question... In the manual, the example it gives for
eval function, involves the multiline variable that is a whole rule. Why can't
I eval just the recipe?
Why doesn't this work:
EMPTY :=#
TAB :=$(EMPTY) #
FOOBAR := $(TAB)touch foobar#
.PHONY: foobar
foobar:
$(eval $(call FOOBAR))
- a really dumb question: why can't I eval just the recipe,
