Hi,

I'm trying to execute a DOS perl script as part of the gmake rule and I would 
like to redirect the text output of the perl script into a gmake variable that 
will be used in the subsequent command in the same rule. Is there an easy way 
to do it as I'm unable to access the text from gmake command.

Here is how my rule is supposed to look:
Target : prereq
              VAR:= $(shell  Perl myperl.pl )
             $( CC)  prereq -D$(VAR)


VAR:= $(shell  Perl myperl.pl ) is valid if executed outside the gmake rule but 
I is there any equivalent way to achieve it in the gmake rule itself?


Thanks
Dheeraj
