The compartmentalization which recursive makes provided is a very nice feature which I'm finding difficult to efficiently replicate in non-recursive makes.
For example, a particular project's tests require a different definition of LDADD. Previously, in the recursive world, I would specify LDADD in tests/Makefile.am. However in the non-recursive world LDADD is shared by all, so I find myself doing this: TESTS_LDADD = \ $(LDADD) $(top_builddir)/$(PACKAGE_NAME)/lib$(PACKAGE_NAME).la %C%_bpsource_LDADD = $(TESTS_LDADD) %C%_bpfilter_LDADD = $(TESTS_LDADD) %C%_bpsink_LDADD = $(TESTS_LDADD) %C%_dpktf_LDADD = $(TESTS_LDADD) [...ad nauseum...] Not very DRY. Is there a way to avoid this? If not presently possible, it would be nice to be able to do something similar to: %C%_LDADD = ... and have that override LDADD for targets in that directory. Thanks, Diab
