https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=285726 Bug ID: 285726 Summary: make: AT&T/SysV-style substitution error if the pattern starts with 't' Product: Base System Version: 14.2-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: tavianator@tavianator.com The ${VAR:pattern%.o=replacement%.c} variable modifier syntax is very useful for portable makefiles because GNU make supports the same syntax. But I just noticed a bug: if the pattern starts with 't', make prints an error rather than performing the substitution. I think the parser is looking for one of the :t modifiers (:tl, :tu, etc.) $ cat Makefile foo: @echo ${@:f%=b%} test: @echo ${@:t%=b%} $ make foo boo $ make test make: Bad modifier ":t%=b%" for variable "@" =b%} -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
