Other significant changes:
o new read-only variable .SHELL which provides the path of the shell
used to run scripts (as defined by the .SHELL target).
o new debug option -dl: LINT mode, does the equivalent of := for all
variable assignments so that file and line number are reported for
variable parse errors.
from ChangeLog:
o filemon/filemon_dev.c: use O_CLOEXEC rather than extra syscall
o meta.c: target flagged .META is out-of-date if meta file missing
o cond.c: fix for compare_expression when doEval=0
o unit-tests/Makefile: rework
o filemon/filemon_dev.c: ensure filemon fd is closed on exec.
from ChangeLog:
(most of this by rillig@)
o lots of style and white-space cleanup
o lots more unit tests for variable modifiers
o simplified description of some functions
o str.c: refactor Str_Match
o var.c: debugging output for :@
constify VarModify parameter
fix :hash modifier on 16-bit platforms
remove unnecessary forward declarations
refactor ApplyModifier_SysV to have less indentation
simplify code for :E and :R
clean up code for :H and :T
refactor ApplyModifiers
* var.c: we need stdint.h on some platforms to get uint32_t
* unit-test/Makefile: we need to supress the specific error
for RE substitution error in modmisc, since it varies accross
different OS.
from ChangeLog:
o cond.c: do not eval unnecessary terms of conditionals.
o meta.c: report error if lseek in filemon_read fails
o str.c: performance improvement for Str_Match for multiple '*'
o dieQuietly: supress the failure output from make
when failing node is a sub-make or a sibling failed.
This cuts down greatly on unhelpful noise at the end of
build log. Disabled by -dj or .MAKE.DIE_QUIETLY=no
o unit test for :Or
