I think I could write a wrapper so that all generated files from
'a.spec' are put in a unique directory, say a.spec.dir. The wrapper will
be able to figure out what all got generated and change the CC_FILES
variable.
Which of the following would be better?
(1) CC_FILES = a.spec.dir/Foo.cc a.spec.dir/Bar.cc
or
(2) CC_FILES = Foo.cc Bar.cc
# the wrapper script moves the files from a.spec.dir to ..
If I use the first one, I can easily write a 'clean' target:
clean::
rm -rf a.spec.dir
