Can you make gcc stop checking for the existence of the #include files when generating the file dependency list. This causes me problems as don't want to supply path names for the include files used by the code. I would much rather use GNUmake's VPATH option which will deposit the include file in the working directory at compile time. As an aside, I also cannot get the vpath directive to work. In the following example make does not appear to check for dependencies in the ./temp directory. vpath %.h ./temp test: trial.h @trial.h @echo "Done TRIAL" @rm -f *.h However when using the VPATH variable everything works ok VPATH = temp test: trial.h @echo "Found trial.h" @rm -f *.h I would be grateful for any help you could give Regards, Richard Bibb
