Subj: question about same file name's build export
Dear odehelp,
Here is the scenario:
========================
Two header files with the same name:
/spec1170/sandbox/sb/src/kernel/arch/alpha/signal.h
/spec1170/sandbox/sb/src/usr/include/sys/signal.h
Will issuing of two export commands suffice? :
From /spec1170/sandbox/sb/src/kernel/include/sys
and from /spec1170/sandbox/sb/src/usr/include :->
build export_signal.h
========================
Or, do I need to issue the third one also:
From
/spec1170/sandbox/sb/src/kernel/arch/alpha :->
build export_signal.h
========================
thanks for any help,
With regards,
Sunil.

Date Of Receipt: 28-NOV-1994 15:09:51.75 From: FLUME::jmcg "Jim McGinness" To: [email protected] CC: buildhelp@DEC:.zko.flume, odehelp@DEC:.zko.flume Subj: Re: question about same file name's build export I'm not sure what you're trying to do from your description, but there are five Makefiles containing "signal.h" as a target: Note that normally, <signal.h> is a symlink to <sys/signal.h> and that <sys/signal.h> includes <machine/signal.h>. The magic of symbolic links is not used to make /usr/include/alpha a link to /usr/sys/include/alpha, for reasons I can't perceive. kernel/include/arch/alpha/Makefile installs usr/sys/include/arch/alpha/signal.h (also referenced as usr/sys/include/machine/signal.h) * usr/include/alpha/Makefile installs usr/include/alpha/signal.h (also referenced as usr/include/machine/signal.h) The following two references appear to overlap in their action. kernel/include/sys/Makefile installs usr/sys/include/sys/signal.h * usr/include/sys/Makefile installs usr/sys/include/sys/signal.h and exports to usr/include/sys/signal.h Also, there is: * usr/include/Makefile creates symlink /usr/include/signal.h -> sys/signal.h To do a complete job, you must invoke all five instances. To populate an export tree (where there is no usr/sys), you need to invoke the three I've marked with a "*". -- jmcg | |||||
