Hi,

Thank you for your reply. But what you pointed to me is not exactly
what I am looking for.

I want the path of the directory where the Makefile is in.

make -f some_makefile_in_another_directory

If I use the above command, $CURDIR will not be the directory where
`some_makefile_in_another_directory' is in.

Regards,
Peng
