Makefile help
Hi there. I'm trying to write a makefile for a sample program i'm writing.
I wanted to use a dependency list, for it to correctly recompile any source code when it's outdated.
Unfortunately, something here is not working.
This is the makefile. As you can see, it's quite simple
Attached is my current makefile and source.Code:CC=g++ PROJECT=DatabaseTest TESTAPP=Output/$(PROJECT) DATABASE_SOURCES=SimpleDatabase.cpp DATABASE_HEADERS=SimpleDatabase.h DATABASE_OBJECTS=Output/SimpleDatabase.o TEST_SOURCES=$(PROJECT).cpp TEST_OBJECTS=Output/$(PROJECT).o OPTS=-g -I ../Common default: test include Dependencies database : $(DATABASE_OBJECTS) test : $(TESTAPP) deps: @g++ $(OPTS) -MM Source/*.cpp > Dependencies @g++ $(OPTS) -MM Test/*.cpp >> Dependencies $(TESTAPP) : $(TEST_OBJECTS) $(DATABASE_OBJECTS) @echo ------------ @echo LINKING TEST @echo ------------ $(CC) $(OPTS) $(DATABASE_OBJECTS) $(TEST_OBJECTS) -o $(TESTAPP) %.o: %.cpp %.h @echo Compiling $< into $* $(CC) $(OPTS) -c $< -o $*.o clean: @echo Cleaning up $(PROJECT) @rm -f Output/* @rm -f *.o clean_backup: @echo Cleaning up backups @rm -f Source/*.bak
The problem is that it doesn't even try to compile the code.
I wanted the code to be in one folder, and the output of it on another. Source on ./Source, and the output in ./Output. Is that too much???
Thanks for any help.
