Hi Matej, > In my Makefile, I have a series of lines like this: > > dir := src/foo-01 > include $(dir)/rules.mk > > dir := src/foo-02 > include $(dir)/rules.mk > > dir := src/foo-03 > include $(dir)/rules.mk > > ... > > As I add new and new foo-directories, I have to add new entries to the > Makefile. > > At "make time", I can enumerate existing foo-directories with > > $(wildcard src/foo-*) > > but I do not know how to generate those Makefile directives because > parametrical variables and $(foreach ...) can only expand to one-line > text where I need expansion to two lines.
Multi-line variables will do the trick, something along the lines: define DIRS dir := src/%1 include $(dir)/rules.mk endef $(foreach i,foo-01 foo-02 foo-03,$(eval $(call DIRS,$i))) Hope this helps.
