Have GMAKE ignore timestamps

[Bhatt, Milan C]

Hello,

 

I was wondering if there was any simple way to get gmake to create a target without checking to see if the prerequisites are out of date.  So I'd like to create only the target and the prerequisites for that target that don't exist, but I don't want to create existing prerequisites even if they are out of date.

 

Here's an example:

 

A : B  C

    @create_A

 

B : D

    @create_B

 

C : E

    @create_C

 

In this example, I want to create target A only and nothing else.   Even if B or C were out of date, I don't want to re-create them.

 

Thanks,

Milan
