Follow-up Comment #2, bug #46995 (project make): Thanks for the extra info Brian. So I understand that the problem actually is that foreach adds whitespace into variable name.
$(foreach var , $(LIST), do something with $(var )) while in contrast for example 'call' knows to strip whitespace from a var name so this: $(call var ,$(ARG)) will actually invoke $(var) and not $(var ). Don't think I can change the bug topic. Is that a known issue with an already open bug? _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?46995> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
