I've seen the following idea somewhere: SUBDIRS = ... .PHONY: $(addsuffix -foo, $(SUBDIRS)): $(addsuffix -foo, $(SUBDIRS)): $(MAKE) -C `echo $@ | sed 's/-.*$//'` `echo $@ | sed 's/^.*-//'` Repeat for all "foo" targets that you need. The sed expressions may need refining. Then again, the original proposal doesn't sound so bad either. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
