The Nest Labs Build - GNU Autotools (nlbuild-autotools) provides a customized, turnkey build system framework, based on GNU autotools, for standalone Nest Labs (or other) software packages that need to support not only building on and targeting against standalone build host systems but also embedded target systems using GCC-based or -compatible toolchains.
nlbuild-autotools seems to lack a facility for explicit or implicit
dependencies that would be realized with a make -C <DIR>
Summary of changes
add support for MAKEDIRS, which realize implicit dependencies of a tree
e.g. internally-built, but third-party libraries like nlunit-test or openssl
add support for MAKEDIRTARGETS, which allows for realization of
explicit_ recursive make-based dependencies of the simple
form <DIR>/<TARGET>, e.g. a package's libary in another
directory
