Hello,
I am currently in the process of putting together the port for ACE
4.6.
I already set up the PLIST file with all the names of the files to be installed
(which is only a subset of work/ACE_wrappers).
To install all the files, I ended up trying the following:
------- snip -------
INSTALLFILES!= cat pkg/PLIST
do-install:
@${MKDIR} ${PREFIX}/ACE_wrappers
for i in ${INSTALLFILES}
do
cp work/${i} ${PREFIX}/ACE_wrappers/${i}
done
------- snap -------
This does not work. The error message is:
------- snip -------
===> Installing for ACE-4.6 for i in ACE_wrappers/ASNMP/tests/log/CVS/Root ACE_wrappers/ASNMP/tests/log/CVS/Repository ACE_wrappers/ASNMP/tests/log/CVS/Entries ... ACE_wrappers/WindozeCE/WindozeCE.rc ACE_wrappers/WindozeCE/WindozeCEDlg.cpp ACE_wrappers/WindozeCE/WindozeCEDlg.h ACE_wrappers/WindozeCE/resource.h
for: not found
*** Error code 1
Stop.
*** Error code 1

*** Error code 1

------- snap -------
Can one not use the shell's `for` in a Makefile or what is the point,
I am missing here?
Any hints are greatly appreciated.
Roland
