How to make execution of Makefile continuous
Posted by wensa on February 16th, 2006


When one of the commands in Makefile failed, that is return error code
1,
make program stops.

I want the making process unstopable even facing error code 1.
How to do that? Is there any parameter to set?

Thanks in advance!

prepend a minus before the actual command, this will make Make ignore
the error. For example :

target:

I think you could have easily figured this one out.
(Hint: man make)
Or probably a simple googling would have helped.

use -i switch for make, which will ignore all errors in commands
executed.

Example: make -i <target>
