Is the any new feature in 3.81 that addresses and simplifies solution for this issue?
Well, the case when the source list can contain files with equal name I will try to do myself :) Just because it is not blocking me right now...

You can't. In this situation you'll have to use a bigger hammer. I think you'll need to move to eval in this case. Something like: SOURCES_1 = ... SOURCES_2 = ... COMPILE = $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c -o $@ $< $(foreach S,$(SOURCES_1),$(eval dir3/subdir3/$(basename $(notdir $(S))).o : $(S) ; $(value COMPILE))) $(foreach S,$(SOURCES_2),$(eval dir4/subdir4/$(basename $(notdir $(S))).o : $(S) ; $(value COMPILE))) (Note: not tested!) Of course you can also use $(call ...) and define and make an outer loop for the dir3, dir4 stuff, which might be cleaner. You'll have to play with the escaping needed to get what you want though. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------- Paul D.
