In one of my make make files I do the following: files_path=$(abspath $(wildcard ../src/*.c)) filt=$(subst /, ,$(files_path)) mod_name_filter=$(filter Module_%,$(filt)) MODULE_NAME=$(mod_name_filter) $(MODULE_NAME) will contain the directory name I want (i.e. the name Module_ followed by any text) I have included this make file in another make file which uses $(MODULE_NAME). This works fine. What I actually want is , instead of referencing the variable MODULE_NAME, I need to paste its value (i.e. the text Module_ followed by any text). This is required since my module specific make files are supposed to contain the name of the directory and not a generic reference. I understand this would require some kind of file write operation. I would like to know if this can be done in the make framework itself.
