Dear all,
Is it possible to tell make that one produce several files at once?
Assume the following example:
b c: a
cp a b
cp a c
It seems make understands it as "To produce c I need to run this rule"
and "To produce b I need to run this rule", rather than "Okay, it will
be enough to run this rule to get obth b and c".
This seems to be especially true when -j is given.
Perhaps one should add a dependency like:
b: a
to avoid this?
But what if it is n targets rather than two which are produced
simultaneously?
Any hint?
thanks!
Sébastien.
