Hi, As part of my project I have some suffix rules to produce built sources from which I can produce automatic dependency information.
My question is - is it possible to get automake to take these user defined auto dependencies into consideration? What I'd envisage is being able to set a user variable in some way and have it appended to the calculated DEP_FILES variable. I've tried things like: .bar.foo: foo2bar $< MODULES = A.bar B.bar C.bar USER_DEP_FILES = $(MODULES:.bar=.foodep) DEP_FILES += $(USER_DEP_FILES) But get the message: pnl/Makefile.am:69: DEP_FILES must be set with `=' before using `+=' Regards, Alex.
