Hi,

I have the following ant script.


	<target ...>
		<foreach target=3D"_call.batch.proc.make_" param=3D"proc.file">
			<param name=3D"makefile.mk" value=3D"mymakefile"/>
			<path>
				<fileset id=3D"proc.retek.file" dir=3D"${source.dir}">
					<include name=3D"*.pc"/>
				</fileset>		   =20
			</path>
		</foreach>
	</target>

	<target name=3D"_call.batch.proc.make_">
		<basename property=3D"module.name" file=3D"${proc.file}" =
suffix=3D".pc"/>
		<dirname property=3D"directory.name" file=3D"${proc.file}"/>
		<exec executable=3D"make" dir=3D"${directory.name}" =
failonerror=3D"true">
			<arg value=3D"-f ${makefile.mk} ${module.name}"/>
		</exec>
	</target>
=09

I have to run "make" under ${directory.name} in order to get the code =
compiled.

for example, if I have the following files under ${directory.name}

	a.pc
	b.pc
	c.pc

I have to cd to that directory, and run

	make -f mymakefile a
	make -f mymakefile b
	make -f mymakefile c

Now, I keep getting error like "make: 1254-027 Cannot open mymakefile =
a.". I verified under ${directory_name}, the file mymakefile is there.

Any idea? Thanks.

Mike
