| Summary | 0001697: Consider replacing out-of-date with not up-to-date | ||||
| Description | In the specification of the make utility, the term up-to-date occurs 45 times, the (supposedly opposite) term out-of-date occurs 12 times. To make the specification conceptually simpler, it would suffice to use only the term up-to-date consistently throughout the whole specification. | ||||
| Desired Action | Reword the 12 places that use the term out-of-date to use the negated form of the corresponding up-to-date instead. Alternatively, explicitly define that out-of-date means the exact opposite of up-to-date, and that there is no range of undefinedness between them. | ||||

In make rationale on P3131, L105687 after:The HP-UX implementation of make treated it as out-of-date.add a new sentence: Note that up-to-date and out-of-date are antonyms. In make future directions add a new paragraph after P3133, L105820. A future version of this standard may require that a target with a prerequisite with an identical timestamp is considered out-of-date. |
