I have three programs that need to be compiled at the same time, 2 written in C and 1 in java. I had all three working with the Makefile when they were in C, but then switched one of them to java... is there a way to compile all 3 at once with the same makefile? Here is my current Makefile: CC=gcc JC=javac JFLAGS= -g CFLAGS= -Wall -...
Hi, Is there a way to compile the code in such a way that we get only specific files/directory in out folder rather than the whole out directory. what if i want to get only symbols directory specific to the target without host directory in it.Is it possible? ...
Hi, I'm compiling my program with architecture set to -mtune=i386 However, I'm also linking statically against several libs (libpng, zlib, jpeglib, vorbisfile, libogg). I've built these libs on my own using configure and make, so I guess these libs were built with architecture being set to my system's architecture which would be i686...
I know there are ways to remove duplicates $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $@ $^ in Makefile. Can you tell me how to make the Makefile below more concise? CC=gcc CFLAGS=-pthread -g -o all: p1 p2 p1: p1.c $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $@ $^ p2: p2.c $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $@ $^ ...
Hi, I'm trying to setup a software package with GNU autotools and would like for a message "Build successful!" to be outputted after a user has run make (after configure). How would I implement such a feature? Thanks ...
Hi there, I'm trying to get GNU make to produce multiple outputs from a single input. The most simple example I can demonstrate is: a b : test cp $< $@ which, I believe, should copy the file test to the files name a and b. However, it only makes the file a, which seems to me to be contrary to the instructions listed here: http:/...
Hi, I am currently in need of a way to programmatically remove some text from Makefiles that I am dealing with. Now the problem is that (for whatever reason) the makefiles are being generated with link commands of -l<full_path_to_library>/<library_name> when they should be generated with -l<library_name>. So what I need is a script to f...
Hi, I looking to optimize an existing Makefile. It's used to create multiple plots (using Octave) for every logfile in a given directory using an scriptfile for every plot which takes a logfilename as an argument. In the Moment, I use one single rule for every kind of plot available, with a handwritten call to Octave, giving the specifi...
I use intermediate files in my Makefile, however make prints out the rm command that it uses to delete them all afterwards. How do I hide this print statement? ...
Hi, I'm new to *N*X OSes, actually MacOS, and when I try to build sources with make and makefiles, I never can. I try to run make, even try to run it passing the makefile as an argument, but all I get is "There's nothing for make to do" Can you point me to a tutorial, reference, or something ? ...
I recently learned how to use automake, and I'm somewhat annoyed that my compile commands went from a bunch of: g++ -O2 -Wall -c fileName.cpp To a bunch of: depbase=`echo src/Unit.o | sed 's|[^/]*$|.deps/&|;s|\.o$||'`;\ g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I./src -g -O2 -MT src/Unit.o -MD -MP -MF $depbase.Tpo -c -o src/Unit.o src/Unit.cp...
I installed the latest version of the Android NDK (r4) on Windows, plus a fresh installation of cygwin with the required packages, latest Android SDK, Eclipse + Android plugins. Whenever I try to build any of the JNI code from cygwin (Be it the samples from the NDK, or a custom project), I'm getting: $ make APP=demo Android NDK: Buildi...
Hi, I am looking for a build system (working on ms windows) that has good support for parallelization of tasks/targets (or whatever you call them). To be more specific - during build (that is initiated on MS Windows machine) I need to copy source files to a number of different machines (which are not necessarily running Windows) and st...
Hi, I'm currently writing a configure script for a library and would like to package it with some sample binaries to give examples on how to use it. Where would be the most appropriate location to install these binaries when a user runs "make install"? I ask what would be appropriate in terms of what would comply with GNU standards. Th...

Hi! In *.mak file I receive commands "commence before first target. Stop." I didn't change it before. How to solve this problem? Thanks! ...
Hi all. I have a make build system that I am trying to decipher that someone else wrote. I am getting an error when I run it on a redhat system, but not when I run it on my solaris system. The versions of gmake are the same major revision (one off on minor revision). This is for building a C project, and the make system has a global Mak...
Hi, I am looking for some basic information regarding makefile structure. Any pointers will be highly appreciated. Thanks. ...

I recently got MySQL compiled and working on Cygwin, and got a simple test example from online to verify that it worked. The test example compiled and ran successfully. However, when incorporating MySQL in a hobby project of mine it isn't compiling which I believe is due to how the Makefile is setup, I have no experience with Makefiles ...
