Hello! Please comment on the following:
There are .defs files, which are meant to be preprocessed using the gcc preprocessor and are afterwards fed to a tool that generates .c and accompanying .h files from the interface descriptions in the .defs files. As --- during preprocessing --- other .defs files and .h files (containing #defines) are #included, dependency tracking is desirable (read: required) for those files (and is implemented in the current pre-Automake Makefile arrangement, by the way :-). As far as I know there is currently no generic mechanism in Automake to universally support dependency tracking of files that are processed using the gcc preprocessor. Have people already made thoughts about such a mechanism or how is the above scenario commonly handled? Regards, Thomas
