Nice idea, but I need help to get it to work, take a look:
/tmp $ cat makefile
$(eval $(shell echo -e 'bam=hi\nfoo=123'))
.PHONEY: bar
bar:
@echo foo: $(foo)
@echo
@echo bam: $(bam)
/tmp $ make bar
foo:
bam: hi foo=123
What should the eval code be changed to so that foo has the proper value
of '123'? I need to support shell output defining about 7 macros,
each of which needs to be parsed by make as a separate line (right?).
I've looked the texinfo help on 'eval'; my hunch is this is possible,
with proper metaquoting, and possibly the use of define, call, or another
approach I'm unaware of. Any help or examples appreciated.
