I'm working on a project that has to do with the make command in UNIX to build
projects. There are makefiles involved - in fact, a makefile tree where there
subdirectories with their own makefiles which are called upon by the main makefile
(recursive makes). These deal with C/C++ sources for the most part, but not limited to.
What I need to do is figure out which files in the project are used for which
applications - each build can consist of several applications. I'll be writing a Perl
script (if this is possible) that basically spits out info about the files used for
each application in the whole build - some files might be shared by more than on
application in a single build.
Is there any possible way from reading the main makefile (root directory of the
project) and extracting this information? I don't necessarily use GNU make to 'make'
the makefiles, but that's not the problem. I've found a way to extract all the
directories and files used by a makefile tree, but I still don't know if it's possible
to organize this by applications.
Thanx for any help I can get!!!
