Hi, I have a set of object files built by libool and other set of object files that are not built by libool. The non-libtool object files are created outside of my project to which I have limited access.
I have the following in my Makefile.am: objdir=/nfsmnt/projx/build/release/ OBJS="$(objdir)/bar.o $(testdir)/foo.o" testSDB_SOURCES = $(testdir)/testSDB.cpp testSDB_LDADD = $(test_LIBS) $(OBJS) -lboost_system -lboost_thread testSDB_CPPFLAGS = $(SDB_FLAGS) $(CLIENT_FLAGS) $(SERVER_INCS) At the time of linking, I'm getting the following make error and it complains that there is no make target for object files defined in OBJS. make: *** No rule to make target `"/nfsmnt/projx/build/release/bar.o', needed by `testSDB'. Stop. Is there a way stop "make" looking for rule skip building bar.o/foo.o instead just use the pre-built non-libtool object files during linking? If so, how do I do that? I tried specifying OBJS in testSDB_Dependencies(testSDB_DEPENDENCIES= $(OBJS)), but I was still getting the same error. I couldn't find the suitable variables at https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Program-and-Library-Variables to accomplish my needs. Any help/advice? Thanks, cvin
