$(wildcard) question

[Gary Allan Howard]

Hi,

I'm rather new to GNUmake 3.81 (three months or so).

I need to get a list of all files from multiple directories and I'm
not sure how to accomplish my task.

Using a bash shell, I would type: find ../../../. -name "*.mak".  As
expected, the find command prints each file matching the pattern
to standard out.

I've tried the following in a make file.

files = $(foreach f,../../..,$(wildcard $f/*.mak))
all:
        @ $(foreach f,$(files),echo $f;)

The all target displays only the *.mak files in the top directory.
I need to recurse all directories. Is there a simple way to accomplish
this with make?

Thank you.
