为什么make总是更新这个目标?

使用以下Makefile在我的Gentoo机器(GNU make 3.82)上使用 make ,我想知道为什么每次执行时data/spectra/o4_greenblatt_296K.dat都会更新make data/spectra/o4_greenblatt_296K.dat {{ 1}},即使文件params/base/fwhm.datparams/base/wavelength_grid.datdata/raw/o4green_gpp.dat都没有更改,文件data/spectra/o4_greenblatt_296K.dat已经存在:

FWHM = params/base/fwhm.dat
WLGRID = params/base/wavelength_grid.dat

$(WLGRID): code/create_wavelength_grid.py
    cp code/create_wavelength_grid.py params/base/wavelength_grid.dat

$(FWHM): code/create_fwhm_param.py
    cp code/create_fwhm_param.py params/base/fwhm.dat

data/raw/o4green_gpp.dat:
    echo 1 > data/raw//o4green_gpp.dat

input_spectra_o4_raw: data/raw/o4green_gpp.dat

data/spectra/o4_greenblatt_296K.dat: $(WLGRID) $(FWHM) input_spectra_o4_raw 
    echo 1 > data/spectra/o4_greenblatt_296K.dat

input_spectra_o4: data/spectra/o4_greenblatt_296K.dat

非常感谢你们给 make 新手的任何帮助:)

答案 0 :(得分:1)

我猜这是因为没有名为input_spectra_o4_raw的文件,这是data/spectra/o4_greenblatt_296K.dat的先决条件。

这个决定看起来像这样:

1. params/base/wavelength_grid.dat and params/base/fwhm.dat are both up to date
2. check input_spectra_o4_raw - file does not exist, so build it first
3. there is a target for input_spectra_o4_raw, and it's prerequisite
   data/raw/o4green_gpp.dat is up to date, so run all the commands to build 
   input_spectra_o4_raw (there are none, though, so we essentially just mark that we've 
   done everything we need to for input_spectra_o4_raw and that we built it new)
4. we just built input_spectra_o4_raw, so data/spectra/o4_greenblatt_296K.dat is out of 
   date with respect to that prerequisite and needs to be rebuilt

您应该研究如何使用.PHONY:伪目标。
