The attached patch fixes things under VC++/nmake, and gets things
working under MinGW/dmake too, but the latter is not perfect...
win32/Makefile and win32/makefile.mk currently contain this:
$(UNIDATAFILES) : $(MINIPERL) $(CONFIGPM) ..\lib\unicore\mktables
cd ..\lib\unicore
..\..\$(MINIPERL) -I..\..\lib mktables
cd ..\..\win32
but $(MINIPERL) is ..\miniperl.exe, so in theory just changing the above to:
$(UNIDATAFILES) : $(MINIPERL) $(CONFIGPM) ..\lib\unicore\mktables
cd ..\lib\unicore
..\$(MINIPERL) -I.. mktables
cd ..\..\win32
should be fine. This worked OK in Makefile using VC++/nmake, but when I
did the same in makefile.mk and tried it using MinGW/dmake it didn't
work. It seems that with dmake, each line of the "recipe" for a given
target is self-contained, so the initial "cd ..\lib\unicore" only has
effect for the rest of that line (nothing else, in this case) and then
you're back in the win32 directory.
The following alternative (a style used elsewhere) should therefore be fine:
$(UNIDATAFILES) : $(MINIPERL) $(CONFIGPM) ..\lib\unicore\mktables
cd ..\lib\unicore && ..\$(MINIPERL) -I.. mktables
This is also fine with nmake, but causes dmake to run mktables 7 times!
Presumably it's doing it once for each of the $(UNIDATAFILES). The
following makefile seems to confirm this:
FILES = one.txt two.txt
all : $(FILES)
$(FILES) :
echo One>one.txt
echo Two>two.txt
Running that with dmake produces this output:
echo One>one.txt
echo Two>two.txt
echo One>one.txt
echo Two>two.txt
Running the same makefile with nmake just produces:
echo One>one.txt
echo Two>two.txt
Likewise with GNU make.
Running mktables 7 times is better than not running it at all, but there
must be a way to fix it for dmake. Anyone know how?
