I have a folder on my HD which contains parentheses in its name. Like: C:/stuff (really cool)/. The make $(wildcard ..) function does not work properly with this directory.
$(wildcard C:/stuff (really cool)/*.jpg)`
evaluates to no results at all. I guess this is due to the fact that the closing parentheses in the directory-name is treated as the closing parentheses for the $(wildcard ..) function. Escaping the ( and ) with a backslash does not work. What also does not work, is putting the directory-name into a variable and then using the wildcard function.
DIR = C:/stuff (really cool)
all:
@echo "$(wildcard $(DIR)/*.jpg)"
No results at all, again.
How should I properly escape the parentheses?
