ltarget - report targets from a open-lmake job
ltarget [OPTION]... [FILE]...
ltarget may be used to pass flags to open-lmake. Unless specified otherwise, passed targets are allowed to be written to.
Note that :
|
• |
Flags can be passed in (cf OPTIONS below). Flags accumulate and will apply even if the file is independently accessed. | ||
|
• |
Targets are reported even if the autodep method (the autodep rule attribute) is none. This is the way (or a call to lmake.target) of reporting targets in such a case (usually with --write). |
Symlobic links are not followed when files are interpreted. Following symbolic links would inevitably lead to files being read (to check if they are symbolic links) before being a target, which would be an error.
-W, --write
Report an actual write, not only target flags. Default is to only alter flags.
-X, --regexpr
Pass flags to all targets matching regexprs passed as argument. The ignore flag only applies to targets following this command.
-x, --no-exclude-star
Accept that flags are further processed according to regexpr-based requests, e.g. ltarget --regexpr, default is to exclude such processing.
-E, --essential
Show when generating user oriented graphs.
-i, --incremental
Targets are not unlinked before job execution and read accesses to them are ignored (including readdir(3)).
-w, --no-warning
No warning is emitted if targets are either uniquified or unlinked while generated by another job.
-I, --ignore
From now on, ignore all reads and writes to targets (including readdir(3)).
-a, --no-allow
Unless this option is passed, ltarget makes its arguments valid targets (cf @pxref{targets-deps}).
-s, --source-ok
Unless this option is passed, writing to a source is an error. In that case, being simultaneously a dep and a target is ok.
In case
mentioned targets turn out to be deps, the dep flags are
also available:
-c, --critical
Create critical deps (cf. note (5)).
-D, --readdir-ok
Allow readdir(3) on passed deps even if not ignored nor incremental. Implies flag --no-required.
-e, --ignore-error
Ignore the error status of the passed deps.
-r, --no-required
Accept that deps be not buildable, as for a normal read access (in such a case, the read may fail, but open-lmake is ok).
