Would someone please post an example or a pointer to an example of a 4gl makefile. I am having difficulty in getting the global files via VPATH. I don’t want to create a monster if there is a better way. Thanks.

I haven't used VPATH, but here's the Informix makefile I use - called informix.mk and usually used with 'include ${HOME}/etc/informix.mk' or a similar relative path name. Make sure you get tabs where blanks are shown.

Dink with it to suit yourself. The bit that may need most changing is the .SUFFIXES line. You might find it better to clear out all pre-existing suffixes (.SUFFIXES: as a line) and then add the I4GL suffixes (and perhaps the standard ones - which are typically relevant to C, Yacc, Lex, etc -after the I4GL suffixes.)
