It can fool \fBmake\fP +into skipping files that haven't changed in a meaningful way. This can be +used for instance when you change a comment in a file but none of the actual +code. +.PP +This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit. +.SH OPTIONS +The different modes of operation are as follows. +.TP +\fBhidechange\fP \fIfile\fP +Hides the fact that the given file has changed by moving its timestamp +back into the past. Use this option with care! +.TP +\fBshow\fP +Lists which files make currently needs to rebuild. +.TP +\fBwhy\fP \fIfile\fP +Explains why make must rebuild the given file. +.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES +One of the following variables (but not both) should be set if the +source +directory is different from the build directory. +If the build directory is simply a subdirectory of the source directory, +the simpler variable OBJ_SUBDIR should be used. +.TP +OBJ_SUBDIR +Indicates that the build directory is in the given subdirectory of the +source directory. For instance, if the source directory is \fItdesdk\fP +and the build directory is \fItdesdk/obj-i386-linux\fP, then OBJ_SUBDIR +should be set to \fIobj-i386-linux\fP. +.TP +OBJ_REPLACEMENT +A \fBsed\fP expression that is used to transform the source directory +into the build directory. +For instance, if the source directory is \fI~/src/tdesdk\fP and the +build directory is \fI~/src/tdesdk-obj\fP, then OBJ_REPLACEMENT could +be set to \fIs#tdesdk#tdesdk-obj#\fP. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR make (1). +.SH AUTHOR +cheatmake was written by David Faure <faure@kde.org>. +.br +This manual page was prepared by Ben Burton <bab@debian.org> +for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others). |
