Hi, Looking at an example of a canned recipe in:
https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Eval-Function define PROGRAM_template = $(1): $$($(1)_OBJS) $$($(1)_LIBS:%=-l%) ALL_OBJS += $$($(1)_OBJS) endef $(foreach prog,$(PROGRAMS),$(eval $(call PROGRAM_template,$(prog)))) It seems the variable `prog` is in scope from the calling loop and can be referenced in the template: define PROGRAM_template = $(prog): $$($(prog)_OBJS) $$($(prog)_LIBS:%=-l%) ALL_OBJS += $$($(prog)_OBJS) endef I was wondering if this is defined behaviour and can be relied upon to work in future versions of make?
