Normally, the build system creates libraries as mere side effects of building targets. There is no way to explicitly trigger the build of libraries only. However, in some circumstances (for example for testing the thorough build of all libraries) a mechanism for explicitly building libraries would be convenient. This patch implements this feature. It consists of two changes. The new pseudo target at 'base/src/lib/target.mk' gathers all libraries that are available in all repositories specified for the build directory and makes its target depend on them. This way, by building 'lib', all libraries would be traversed. However, in the (likely) situation that those libraries include one or more invalid libraries (libraries with unsatisfied build requirements), the build system would skip the target. Hence, the second change introduces a new condition 'FORCE_BUILD_LIBS' to the build system. By setting this variable to 'yes' in the 'target.mk' file, we let the build system to traverse library dependencies for all valid libraries regardless of the presence of any invalid library. |

README
This directory contains the build system. In consists mainly of makefile templates for different directory roles. :'global.mk': This file contains global variables, for example the definitions of the tools to use. :'generic.mk': Generic rules for creating file types from others. :'prg.mk': This file represents the target binary role of a directory. It must be included by all makefiles that build programs. :'lib.mk': This file represents a library role. It is never used from within the 'src/' directory but only from the <libname>.mk files in 'lib/mk/'.
