Hi,
currently the online manual section on eval
http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Eval-Function
contains an example with folowing line:
define PROGRAM_template =
In comparison to that my local info page (make 3.81, Ubuntu 11.04) says:
define PROGRAM_template
And indeed the syntax of a multi line variable definition does not allow
a trailing ' =' and thus if you use the first line make can't find the
PROGRAM_template variable.
You can verify this using 'make --warn-undefined'.
I don't know if the online version of the manual is outdated - but
please fix it such that it contains the right syntax,
since this example describes a rather complicated part of makefile
techniques (-> eval templates).
Best regards
Georg
