Description

::

   logtalk_make_target_action(Target)

Multifile and dynamic hook predicate that allows defining user actions for
the :ref:`predicates_logtalk_make_1` targets. The user defined actions are
run after the default ones using a failure driven loop. This loop does not
catch any exceptions thrown when calling the user-defined actions.
