That's why you have access to all previously initialized variables. However, if you want your plugin to add common dependencies to your applications, a regular is loaded too late in the process. You need to use "Early-stage plugins". They are declared using the <code>DEP_EARLY_PLUGINS</code> variable instead. Plugins listed in this variable are loaded near the beginning of Erlang.mk Otherwise, they work exactly the same.</p> <p>If you only give the name of a dependency, the default file loaded is <em>early-plugins.mk</em>. You can specify a filename exactly like you would have done it with regular plugins.</p> |
