  1. SEEM3460 Tutorial The Make Utility

  2. Basic Structure of A Make File • Line of target and dependency (a rule) • target1: part1.o part2.o#this line and the line below are comments#part1.o and part2.o here are dependents • Lines of operations describing the updating process • [tab]gcc -o target1 part1.o part2.o[tab]chmod 711 target1 • The tab character is necessary!

  3. Basic Structure of A Make File • Multiple targets can be put in same file: • target1: part1.o part2.o[tab]gcc -o target1 part1.o part2.opart1.o: part1.c part1.h[tab]gcc -c part1.cpart2.o: part2.c[tab]gcc -c part2.c

  4. Flow of Make Process

  5. The Make Utility • Update according to Makefile: • make • Update according to makefile1: • make -f makefile1 • Update part1.o according to makefile1: • make -f makefile1 part1.o • Other switches: • -k (continue other targets when a target errs) • -n (do not execute but print the commands) • -s (execute but do not print the commands)

  6. Extensive Use of Make Files • The use of a make file is never limited to just compiling a program • Example 1: Update a piece of outputoutput1.txt: input1.txt[tab]program1 < input1.txt > output1.txt • Example 2: Clear temporary filesclear:[tab]rm -f tempfile1 tempfile2

  7. Macros (Extra) • Macros can be used in make files functioning as variables. The $(marconame) pattern is used to take the value of the macro • E.g.CC = gccpart1.o: part1.c part1.h[tab]$(CC) -c part1.c

  8. Special Macros (Extra) • There are some special macros that you can use without defining them • $@: name of target • $?: name of changed dependents • E.g.final: part1.c part2.c[tab]gcc -c $?[tab]gcc -o $@ part1.o part2.o
