Subject: Is there a difference in (n)make between windows and unix.
From: rquadling@googlemail.com ("Richard Quadling")

Hi.

I'm new to compiling PHP on windows, so this may be a real newbie question.

My expectation of make-like tools is that they describe the how to
create targets from sources (in a nutshell).

So, just for example, TSRM/readdir.h. I would expect that if I altered
this file and then ran my make program (nmake for me on Windows with
MS VC++ 2008 Express Edition), then TSRM would be built and all
binaries re-linked that use this (again, in a nutshell).

What is happening is that the makefile has no knowledge of this header
file, so it can't be used to make anything.

Is this expected behaviour? Please don't focus on just TSRM/readdir.h
as this was one file I picked at random (as I had edited it recently).

Should editing ANY source level file (.h, .c type files) result in a make?

Or is it just .c files?

Regards

Richard Quadling.
