Bug report: Make cannot handle the word or path that contains space

2013-01-29 Thread Liang, Jian
Hi, Make cannot handle the word or path that contains space. Here's a sample: (tested on 3.81 and 3.82) -- INC=aa/hdr bb/hdr cc\ mgr/hdr INC_FLAG=$(addprefix -I,$(INC)) N=$(words $(INC)) all: test @echo INC_FLAG=$(INC_FLAG) @echo N=$(N) test: $(INC)
