Why is that a problem? My editor is smart enough to recognize the relative paths, and adjust the search paths based upon GNU make `Entering directory...'/`Leaving directory...' messages. I'm pretty sure that Emacs knows to do this as well. > Is there a way to force automake to pass into gcc the > full source path? Absolute source paths are not such a good idea. They also happen to not work well with the dependency tracking scheme employed by Automake. > Trying somethin like: > $(abs_srcdir)/cfgfile/grammar.c > > This do the trick while compiling but then I get following error from 'make > dist': > > cp: cannot stat `.//project/base/cfgfile/grammar.c': No such file or directory Hmm, that sounds like a bug. > The reason why I would like to include full source path is that emacs > obviously can not find the file when compiling the library from different > directory. See above; that would seem to be a problem specific to some other setup of yours, as otherwise, you certainly wouldn't be the only person complaining. Cheers, Ralf
