Target specific and automatic variables

[Pierre Habraken]

Hello,

Let's consider the following Makefile:

#############################
foo: FOOVAR = bla bla
foo: $(FOOVAR)
        echo $^
#############################

I'd expect that running this makefile should produce:
=============================
$ make
echo bla bla
bla bla
$
=============================

Instead it produces:
=============================
$make
echo 

$
=============================

Could someone tell me what I missed ?
Thanks in advance,

Pierre
