c++.command-line - paths in inference rule (smake)

Running with smake.

In my makefile I have a listing of some source files that I am trying to
compile, but I want the .obj files in different directory. How do I do that
when I am using an inference rule of the .cpp.obj variety?

Smake help says to use this

{dependent_path}.dependent_ext{target_path}target_ext:
  commands

but is this right (only 1 period is shown)?


I have something like this in my makefile

OUTPUTDIR = C:\myoutdir

SRCS = $(SRC_PATH)\file1.cpp \
    $(SRC_PATH)\file2.cpp

.cpp.obj:
     $(CPP) -d -Jm -w -v1 -Ae -Ar -o-all -mn $(DEFINES) $(INCDIR) $<

all: $(SRCS:.cpp=.obj)


Can someone show me how to send my .obj files to $(OUTPUTDIR)  ?

Thanks,
Doug

Inference rule would look like this: .cpp{$(OUTPUTDIR)}.obj: -- TimJ
