Folks,
I have two templates, `foo.cin' and `foo.hin', which are used to
create the files `foo.c' and `foo.h', respectively. File `foo.h'
get's included in another header file, `bar.h', which in turn is
included by almost every other file of library `foobar' (including
`foo.c').
Currently, I have this in my Makefile.am:
libfoobar_la_SOURCES = \
bar.h \
... \
foo.c \
foo.h \
...
foo.h: foo.hin
do-something < foo.hin > foo.h
foo.c: foo.cin
do-something < foo.cin > foo.c
Unfortunately, this doesn't work. While calling `make', I get
GEN foo.c
CC foo.lo
In file included from foo.c:
bar.h: fatal error: foo.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make[2]: *** [foo.lo] Error 1
What's the recommended solution to such a problem, except adding
dependencies for all .c files which directly or indirectly include
`foo.h' (which is both inconvenient and error prone)?
Werner
