This is not quite correct. Either your code generates a header file to be included by foo.c, then foo.c depends on it. Or it creates data and methods that need to be linked, then the executable depends on it. An object file only makes the executable need unresolved symbols but that is not a dependency of the object file. Or you simply failed to explain how parts relate to each other and the dependency between the parts is totally different. OTOH, table-driven CRC is usually not that complicates to integrate. CMake handles lots of compilers that REQUIRE other object file extensions than .o. It also generates for more that only make, allowing better working with IDEs. These bring their own strange rules that you cannot match to any make logic.
