bug in documentation - eval function

[Piotr Jankowski]

Hi,

I possibly discovered a bug in the documentation on the manual page hosted at:

https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Eval-Function.html

In the example makefile:

define PROGRAM_template =
 $(1): $$($(1)_OBJS) $$($(1)_LIBS:%=-l%)
 ALL_OBJS   += $$($(1)_OBJS)
endef

Should probably be without the equals sign like so:

define PROGRAM_template
 $(1): $$($(1)_OBJS) $$($(1)_LIBS:%=-l%)
 ALL_OBJS   += $$($(1)_OBJS)
endef

At least on GNU Make 3.81 the one with the equal sign does not work. It does not cause a visible error but does not work.

Thanks,

Piotr Jankowski
