Description
I am trying compile and run the burn_cell unit test in debug mode but got this error:
make: *** No rule to make target `extern_parameters.cpp', needed by `tmp_build_dir/o/3d.gnu.DEBUG.EXE/extern_parameters.o'. Stop.
steps to reproduce the bug:
- run
export AMREX_HOME=/path/to/amrex
cd unit_test/burn_cell
make DEBUG=TRUE
- see the error.

Research direction
Start in unit_test/burn_cell by running make DEBUG=TRUE with AMREX_HOME set, then inspect the build rules that require extern_parameters.cpp. Done means the burn_cell unit test compiles successfully in DEBUG mode without the missing-target error.
