makefile - List goals/targets in GNU make that contain variables in their definition

Question

I have a fairly large makefile that creates a number of targets on the fly by computing names from variables. (eg foo$(VAR) : $(PREREQS)). Is there any way that gnu make can be convinced to spit out a list of targets after it has expanded these variables?

I'd like to be able to get the targets for an aribitrary makefile. I'm trying to write a completion function for my shell.

Answer 1

make -qp | awk -F':' '/^[a-zA-Z0-9][^$#/=]*:([^=]|$)/ {split($1,A,/ /);for(i in A)print A[i]}'     

Taken from the make arg completion, which works like a charm.
