command line limitation

[ma]

Hello,

    I have a make file that is automatically generated. It that makefile, I 
have a variable that is very long. It is around 88K long. When I am trying 
to pass it to any function (ar for example), the operating system complains 
that the command line is too long. The other way is to put this variable in 
a text file and call ar in this way:



ar @a.txt



The problem is I don't know how I can write this variable into a file? I 
can't use something such as echo $(Long_Var) >a.txt since then the command 
line to echo is too long. Is there any way that I can do in gmake? Is there 
any function in gmake that help to write a variable into a file?



I am using gmake on windows xp



Best regards
