Hi Andy,

The rules haven't changed if you use the makeBaseApp.pl method of creating
application areas as described in the document 
"EPICS IOC Applications Building and Source Release Control" 
http://www.aps.anl.gov/asd/controls/epics/EpicsDocumentation/AppDevManuals/iocAppBuildSRcontrol3_13_0beta12.html

You have your own config directory with a RULES.Db file containing the line:
%.edf:: ../%.sch $(DEPSCHS)
        @if [ ! -f cad.rc -a -r ../cad.rc ] ; then ln -s ../cad.rc ; fi
        $(SCH2EDIF) $(SCH2EDIF_SYSFLAGS) $(SCH2EDIF_FLAGS) $<

However,  even with $(DEPSCHS) I have always had to touch the 
top level schematic to make the schematics rebuild.  I think DEPSCHS must
need to be defined somehow and I haven't learned how to use it. 
When I change or touch my top schematic the database builds fine
without the $(DEPSCHS).

I believe Thomas Birke may know how RULES.Db is supposed to work to
get schematics to rebuild when any of the underlying schematics have changed.
