# Helpers for self-documenting makefiles.

# Based on http://www.cmcrossroads.com/print/article/self-documenting-makefiles
|

|
|
# Standard usage:
|
|
#
|
|
# TARGET: PREREQUISITES $(call def-help,TARGET,HELP)
|
|
# ACTIONS
|
|
#
|
|
# or on multiple lines:
|
|
#
|
|
# TARGET: PREREQUISITES \
|
|
# $(call def-help,TARGET,\
|
|
# HELP\
|
|
# )
|
|
# ACTIONS
|
|
#
|
|
# Also:
|
|
#
|
|
# $(call def-help-section,TITLE,HELP) -- show a section heading
|
|
#
|
|
# $(call def-help-subsection,TITLE,HELP) -- show a subsection heading
|
|
#
|
|
# $(call def-help-hide,TARGET,HELP) -- temporarily suppress the help)
|
|
# $(call def-help-section-hide,TITLE,HELP)
|
|
# $(call def-help-subsection-hide,TITLE,HELP)
|
|
#
|
|
# HELP is one or more lines, or can be blank.
|
|
# Certain characters are not allowed, comma in particular.
|
|
# You may want to avoid ' also as it breaks emacs font-lock.
