A few days ago I shared with you all an experimental newer version of make v4.4.1. If you would like to test it with your projects and give me your feedback, that would be great. You may find it at https://git.walkero.gr/walkero/make/releases/tag/4.4.1-beta3

Make sure to backup the older make and gmake executables from the SDK:C/ folder.

Please, use this topic for it and if you provide me with repositories I could reproduce the issues, that would help me fix the problems.

Just can't stay away

@walkero

BTW make beta fails building OS4 telegram:


#make -f Makefile.amigaos4 

make: *** No rule to make target 'build/TelegramAmiga.obj/core/tg_gui_window.o', needed by 'build/TelegramAmiga'.  Stop.



#version SDK:C/make file full

make 4.4.1 (23-06-2026)



#make533 -f Makefile.amigaos4 

make533[1]: Entering directory `/Devel/SDK/ejemplos/NETWORK/telegram-amiga-main_006'

mkdir -p build/TelegramAmiga.obj/core/

gcc -Wall -Wextra -O2 -Iinclude -gstabs -ISDK:include/include_h -ISDK:include/netinclude -DTG_ENABLE_GZIP_PUFF=1 -Ithird_party/puff -c core/tg_gui_window.c -o build/TelegramAmiga.obj/core/tg_gui_window.o

Seems the "faulty" line is:


HDRS_ALL := $(wildcard include/*.h) $(wildcard third_party/*/*.h)

with make v53.3 no problems.

Not too shy to talk

My question for @jabirulo is this - why use arcane overcomplicated features of the latest make for a greenfield project? Sure, having the latest gnu make for cross compiling webkit and such is important, but surely the solution to your Telegram problem is 'don't use features in your Amiga only target makefile not supported by Amiga versions of make'

@NinjaCyborg
Not sure I understand your reply, sorry.
I'm not the author of TelegramAmiga, just testing building "nightly builds" and reported my issues to its author and walkero.

Walkero already explained such beta isn't based on "old" v53.3, as he couldn't find proper sources and some "features" are missing on make beta.

@everyone

Can you please provide me with repositories that you know that compile on AmigaOS 4? I need to test the new make with them, and resolve possible issues. Thank you.

another issue I found is that just executing make, then in CLI/Shel I type "Set" command I get a bunch of variables that should show (not sure but look like all from root ENV/ENVARC)

@walkero

another issue.
In Makefile I have/use:


OS := $(shell uname)



ifeq ($(strip $(OS)),AmigaOS)

    AMIGADATE = $(shell c:date LFORMAT %d.%m.%Y)

else

    AMIGADATE = $(shell date +"%-d.%-m.%Y")

endif

...

CFLAGS := $(INCPATH)

CFLAGS += -O2

CFLAGS += -D__AMIGADATE1__=\"$(AMIGADATE)\"

...

and then make:


#make441 -f Makefile_structVBCC DEBUG=

Compiling: main.c

No match for 30-09-2026

>

error 260 in line -1 of "main.c": unfinished string at end of line

Soemthing strange with c:date output
AMIGADATE = $(shell c:date LFORMAT %d.%m.%Y)

it should be "30.09.2026", but set it to "Miércoles 30-09-2026 17:48:44" (full date), partianlly workarounded/solved by adding quotes:.

AMIGADATE = $(shell c:date LFORMAT "%d.%m.%Y")

@jabirulo

About the environment variables, do you have the same with the old 53.x version?

About the date, I have a new version that I put in a makefile


echo $(shell c:date LFORMAT "%d.%m.%Y")

and gave me the right date as 30.09.2026.

I will make a new release, as soon as I test more repositories.

For any brave person out there, I created a new beta release of make 4.4.1 at https://git.walkero.gr/walkero/make/releases/tag/4.4.1-beta4

After I used it to compile many different projects, I decided to make this available for more tests by the community.

Please, test it and let me know how it works. If a repository of yours fails, please share it with me.

@walkero
yes same enviroment, just using make (53.3) or make441, using same Makefile.
Don't know why wit make441 it "reads" envarc: files and "sets" them in CLI/Shell

Yep, noticed that with make441 I need to put the date between quotes or it will fail.

AMIGADATE = $(shell c:date LFORMAT %d.%m.%Y)

With make 53.3 no need for such quotes.

ok, will test new updated ASAP.

Do you need some repos to test "make"?

Just popping in

@walkero:
The SET-issue is still there in Beta 4: all global variables are copied as local variables.

The first release candidate of Make 4.4.1 is available at
https://git.walkero.gr/walkero/make/releases/tag/4.4.1-rc1
Please, give it a try with your projects

## Fixed

- Fixed the global env variables being moved to local
- Fixed global env variables being changed when make was used
- Fixed the MAKEFLAGS, MFLAGS and MAKELEVEL local env variables being created and not cleared
