如何将 append 到 Makefile 中的变量列表？

Question

I am trying to write a Makefile for the following project structure

/project
  Makefile
  main.cpp
  test.hpp
  /a
    s1.cpp 
    s1.hpp 
    s2.cpp 
    s2.hpp
  /b
    s1.cpp 
    s1.hpp 
    s2.cpp 
    s2.hpp
  /c
    s1.cpp 
    s1.hpp 
    s2.cpp 
    s2.hpp

I have 3 folders with.cpp and.hpp files, I'd like to have in the INC variable all the hpp files together

DIRS = ./a ./b ./c
INC = $(wildcard *.hpp) # how to have here ./a/s1.hpp ./a/s2.hpp ./b/s1.hpp ./b/s2.hpp etc...?

INC only grabs the.hpp files in the Makefile directory and not in the subdirectories. How to automatically specify all headers in subdirectories? Thanks for tips.

The wildcard function takes several patterns. The addsuffix function appends a suffix to each word in a list. So:

INC = $(wildcard $(addsuffix /*.hpp,$(DIRS)))

should do what you want. There are other ways like:

INC = $(foreach d,$(DIRS),$(wildcard $(d)/*.hpp))

or, if you have the find utility and want to find all *.hpp files, in any subdirectory at any depth (not just in $(DIRS) ):

INC = $(shell find . -type f -name '*.hpp')

This last form may be better because you do not need to provide the list of directories.
