Re: unique list

Hi,

You can use the sort function if you  are not bothered about the order. because 
this sorts the list and removes the duplicate entries
as well.

Hello there,

I have a list definitions:
dir1 = ../one
dir2 = ../two
dir3 = ../two

It may happen that some variables point to the same directory

Now I would like to have a single list
dirs = $(dir1) $(dir2) $(dir3)

but I need this list to be unique i.e. I need dirs to be: ../one ../two

Has anybody any idea how to do this? Of course dir* definitions can be changed 
any time and dirs shoudl be always correct.

thanks
