> Can anyone help? Not really. While you have described in great detail WHY you want to use a pattern rule (which is interesting but not relevant to solving your problem), you haven't given us even a single example of HOW you are using pattern rules. Pattern rules unquestionably do work, so your problem must be that you are using them incorrectly. There are quite a few ways in which this could be true, so it's not useful for us to guess. We'd be happy to help: if you would like help please provide the necessary info including: version of GNU make and the operating system and version you're running it on (output from make --version for example); a short but accurate example of a makefile that doesn't work (please give the exact code: don't paraphrase); and a statement of what you wanted to happen and what actually does happen.
