Hi All,

Mike: I think I saw in past any command which do it. Am I right?
Thanks, Michal

you mean quiet build like you see with Linux/busybox/uClibc/etc..., u-boot doesnt support it. Wolfgang rejected the idea.
there is silent build like anything else ... use make's -s flag -mike

Dear Mike Frysinger,

That's not correct. I did not reject the _idea_.
I just rejected the implementation. I think it is fundamentally wrong and broken to implement this feature which seems to be high valued in many projects again and again and again in each and every project's Makefile code.
Instead, it should be implemented once where it actually belongs: in the make tool itself, so that _all_ projects can benefit from it without adding complexity and increased build times to their Makefiles.
But like in so many cases people rather copy & paste code around without actually thinking.

...or run "./MAKEALL <name>" which has the added benefit of keeping full log files in the LOG/ directory in case anything should go wrong.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

in reality, these equate to the same thing. the make tool isnt going to implement this stuff since it's pretty much impossible to cover all cases.
automake has already integrated support so all automake-based packages get support for free. -mike

Really? Has such a proposal been submitted and turned down?

I don't consider this a recommendation for automake or the makers of automake. YMMV, of course.

no idea, but i dont believe it is technically possible, thus it's a dead end i'm not going to waste time on -mike

Where exactly do you exect technical problems?

yep, I meant quiet mode like is in linux kernel and full mode with V=1.
