makers 0.2.0

a POSIX-compatible make implemented in Rust
makers-0.2.0 is not a library.

makers

A (mostly) POSIX-compatible make implemented in Rust. Not explicitly aiming for full support for every GNU make feature, but adding whichever features are strictly necessary to be compatible with existing GNUish makefiles.

conformance

  • internationalization (LANG/LC_ALL/LC_CTYPE/LC_MESSAGES) not implemented
  • XSI conformance (SCCS integration) not implemented
  • signal handling not implemented
  • library handling not implemented
  • some POSIX-specified features are pending (search TODO for a list)
  • builtin macro MAKE is defined as makers

status

automated tests only cover a small fraction of this software, so as it stands it's not profoundly reliable. that said, I test manually on complicated projects, and the current record for most complex project which builds successfully with yapymake is Tcl.

changelog
