|
|
|
|
2016-09-15 20:13:05 +05:30

|
|
|
`make {{[-j|--jobs]}} {{4}} {{target}}`

|
|
|
|
2016-09-15 20:13:05 +05:30

|
2016-01-04 11:23:09 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2025-03-26 02:30:50 +02:00
|
|
|
`make {{[-f|--file]}} {{path/to/file}}`
|
2016-01-04 11:23:09 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2016-01-07 18:31:27 +01:00
|
|
|
- Execute make from another directory:
|

|
|
|
|
2025-03-26 02:30:50 +02:00
|
|
|
`make {{[-C|--directory]}} {{path/to/directory}}`
|

|
|
|
|
2016-09-15 20:13:05 +05:30
|
|
|
- Force making of a target, even if source files are unchanged:
|
2016-07-05 16:21:56 +02:00
|
|
|
|
2025-03-26 02:30:50 +02:00
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
2020-10-26 23:36:54 +01:00
|
|
|

|
|
|
`make {{[-e|--environment-overrides]}} {{target}}`
