Build ‘bindir.c’, not ‘bindir.h’.
Another attractive idea is to define bindir
as a variable or
function exported from ‘bindir.o’, and build ‘bindir.c’
instead of ‘bindir.h’.
noinst_PROGRAMS = foo foo_SOURCES = foo.c bindir.h nodist_foo_SOURCES = bindir.c CLEANFILES = bindir.c bindir.c: Makefile echo 'const char bindir[] = "$(bindir)";' >$@ |
‘bindir.h’ contains just the variable's declaration and doesn't need to be built, so it won't cause any trouble. ‘bindir.o’ is always dependent on ‘bindir.c’, so ‘bindir.c’ will get built first.
