Sorry, let me clarify: right now, Eduardo's makefile contains rules for copying files from other directories to the current directory. It may be possible to simply remove those rules and instead specify the other directories via VPATH or vpath.
I haven't understood this. Are there examples available somewhere?
If the local copies of those files are just used as prerequisites for other targets whose rules only reference them via automatic variables such as $< or $?, then that'll Just Work. If they are used indirectly or are referenced by name instead of via automatic variables then that won't work.
This also is not clear for me. Are there examples in the info page? Thanks a lof for your comments. _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
