Description dgtlrift 2015-07-02 16:58:49 UTC 
When selecting "Rebuild if properties have changed" the $(<) automatic make variable is not expected.  This is due to the way it is changed:
from
${OBJECTDIR}/<source>.o: <source>.cpp 
to
${OBJECTDIR}/<source>.o: nbproject/Makefile-${CND_CONF}.mk <source>.cpp 

The easiest workaround is to have the makefile render code change the line from
${OBJECTDIR}/<source>.o: <source>.cpp 
to
${OBJECTDIR}/<source>.o: <source>.cpp nbproject/Makefile-${CND_CONF}.mk

This will maintain $(<) so it can be used to retrieve the associated source file for the target, allowing such as the following:

ASTYLE	    :=astyle
ASTYLEFLAGS :=--style=allman -s4 -p -D -H -j -xC78 -S -f

BACKUP_COMPILE.cc:=$(COMPILE.cc)
COMPILE.cc= \
$(warning "@=[$(@)]") \
$(warning "%=[$(%)]") \
$(warning "<=[$(<)]") \
$(warning "?=[$(?)]") \
$(warning "^=[$(^)]") \
$(warning "+=[$(+)]") \
$(warning "|=[$(|)]") \
$(warning "*=[$(*)]") \
$(ASTYLE) $(ASTYLEFLAGS) $(<) && $(BACKUP_COMPILE.cc)
