Hello, I'm trying to get my feet wet in programming in C and the first thing I'm doing is reading a book called an Introduction to GCC. I'm running Fbsd 7-stable I have Gcc44 installed.
Example in the book is 3 files named main.c, hello_fn.c and hello.h: File main.c with the following code: #include "hello.h" int main (void) { hello ("world"); return 0; } File hello_fn.c with the following code: #include <stdio.h> #include "hello.h" void hello (const char * name) { printf ("Hello, %s!\n", name); } and hello.h with the following code: void hello (const char * name); Objective is to create a makefile which will create an executable named main. The books has this code in the Makefile: CC=gcc CFLAGS=-Wall main: main.o hello_fn.o clean: rm -f main main.o hello_fn.o The book says this should create two object files named main.o and hello_fn.o plus an executable named main. But the last is not created! Does it have to do with make version? or is the book outdated (2005) http://www.network-theory.co.uk/gcc/intro/ or you can the section that I'm referring to here: http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/gccintro/gccintro_16.html By the way I can create the executable using gcc -Wall main.c hello_fn.c -o main so it's not a gcc problem I don't think. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
