Hi! I have a strange problem linked with make(1)
Consider the following Makefile:
---------------------------------------------------------------
COMPS=aa ab ac
AA=aa
VAR1=${COMPS:Maa}
VAR2=${COMPS:M${AA}}
.for COMP in ${AA}
VAR3=${COMPS:M${COMP}}
.endfor
---------------------------------------------------------------
Now, running make(1) gives:
% make -V VAR1
aa
% make -V VAR2
}
% make -V VAR3
aa
Results for VAR2 seems quite strange for me. It looks like
${COMP}!=${AA}
So, the question: is make(1) broken, or it's my misunderstanding?
Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks!
