Hi,
I have a system with several source and include directories, as
src/main/main.cxx
src/misc/test1.cxx
src/misc/image/picture.cxx
src/gui/panel1.cxx
include/main/main.h
include/misc/test1.h
include/misc/image/picture.h
include/gui/panel1.h
and I have makefile in each directory. In the root directory:
MD = ./
DIRS = src
include $(MD)makeinclude
In src directory:
MD = ../
DIRS = main misc gui
include $(MD)makeinclude
In misc directory:
MD = ../../
DIRS = image
SOURCE = picture.cxx
include $(MD)makeinclude
and so on. The makeinclude is the following:
CXX = g++
OBJDIR = $(MD)obj/
INCDIR = $(MD)include
CXXFLAGS = -c -I$(INCDIR)
OBJECT = $(SOURCE:%.cxx=$(OBJDIR)%.o)
all: $(OBJECT)
@for dir in $(DIRS); do\
(cd $$dir; $(MAKE) ) || break;\
done
$(OBJDIR)%.o : %.cxx
$(CXX) $< $(CXXFLAGS) -o $@
With this, I can compile all my source file without problem. Now I want
to link them but I have 2 problems:
(1) I don't know how to write the rule that the link will be done only
if the bin file is older that objet file. I have a problem with the for
command. For the moment, the linkage is done each time, with this rule
:
all: help
g++ obj/main.o obj/misc/... [skip] -o main
help: $(OBJECT)
@for dir in $(DIRS); do\
(cd $$dir; $(MAKE) help ) || break;\
done
(2) The second problem is how to generate the list of the object file
that will be use by the linker. The variable OBJECT is set in each
directory so when I link, this variable is empty.
I have tried several options, read manuals, but I can't figure how to
solve these two problems. Any help with be greatly appreciated.
Boris
