In a makefile I have some filenames defined in macros (variables) that I would like to extract the filename and directory of.

--- makefile start ---

FullName = D:\lib\delphi32\item.pas
DirName = $(FullName,D)
BaseName = $(FullName,B)

# expected:
# DirName = D:\lib\delphi32\
# BaseName = item
# but does not work!

print:
  @echo "$(FullName)"
  @echo "$(DirName)"
  @echo "$(BaseName)"

--- makefile end ---

I want DirName to be "D:\lib\delphi32\" and BaseName to be "item" but I can not find a proper syntax for doing this.

In the Delphi 7 help there is a page called "Modifying default MAKE macros" but it is very unclear how much is possible and if general macros can be used.

The syntax using the comma in front of the D and B modifier was an idea (but not working) that I got from this page, see section Macro Modifiers:

Is there a way to do this in the Delphi make?
