Hi,
I am trying to get a list of files required, from a file which contains the root
location of the required files. The contents of file can be any thing
1. absolute location
2. An env variable pointing to the absolute location.
When I try to use wildcard function, wildcard gives only the files present in the root
location whose absolute location is given, but doesnot
list the files at root location obtained from the environment variable.
Eg:
LISTROOT_FILENAME = /home/bhaskar/test.txt
REQFILE_LST := $(shell $(CAT) $(LISTROOT_FILENAME))
REQFILES := $(strip $(REQFILE_LST))
LIST_OF_FILES := $(foreach FILE, $(REQFILES), $(wildcard $(FILE)/*))
test:
@echo $(LIST_OF_FILES)
PS:
Try this having absolute and relative paths in the file in the first line of this
makefile.
NOTE: I had sent an earlier email which is quite confusing so I am drafting a new and
simple one. I also
do not know if this is a bug.
regards
bhaskar
