NAME

Makefile.enable - Flag file to avoid unintentional build

 

SYNOPSIS

Makefile.enable

 

AVAILABILITY

WA2L/WinTools

 

DESCRIPTION

for building commands, documents in/for WA2L/WinTools and to automate other development tasks, make(1) respecively Makefile is used.

To avoid the unintentional execution of build tasks, the Makefiles require a Makefile.enable flag file to exist.

The Makefile.enable does not need to have any content.

Therefore when invoking make in a WA2L/WinTools directory where a Makefile exists, the message 

  Makefile:29: *** FILE 'Makefile.enable' MISSING *** .  Stop.

or similar will appear.

When you intend to build something of the WA2L/WinTools package, simply invoke 

  touch Makefile.enable

to enable the execution of the related Makefile.
