Title
Body
I'm trying to consolidate some build information by using a common makefile. My problem is that I want to use that makefile from different subdirectory levels, which makes the working directory value ( pwd ) unpredictable. For example: # Makefile.common TOP := $(shell pwd) COMPONENT_DIR := $(TOP)/component COMPONENT_INC := $(COMPONENT_DIR)/include COMPONENT_LIB := $(COMPONENT_DIR)/libcomponent.a If I include Makefile.common from a subdirectory, like so, the $(TOP) directory is incorrect and everything else follows suit: # other_component/Makefile include ../Makefile.common # $(COMPONENT_LIB) is incorrectly other_component/component What's the best way to get Makefile.common to use its own directory path instead of the more fickle pwd ?
