How can I produce the functionality of the perl function join() in gmake.
I have a list of directories:
A = /usr/bin /bin
and I want this:
A = /usr/bin:/bin
I could do this in perl:
$A = join(':', $A);
Something like this I thought would work in gmake, but doesn't seem to:
A := $(subst ,:,$(A))
The info page on text functions gives an example going the other direction
for VPATH:
$(subst :, ,$(VPATH))
but doesn't say how to do what I want.
Do I have to resort to $(shell echo $(A) | sed 's/ /:/g')?
