I have no idea why you have done what you have, now. Why bother rewriting it if you're going to do exactly what you said you were trying to avoid? You've got exactly what you had before, except instead of nicely organized into folders, it's one enormous mess.
You might as well have just let them live in their own folders and used their old makefiles. Then you could do this:
Then you could do 'make all' and it would run make in each of the folders.
I have concatenated 2 makefiles, to produce 1 however it is not running all of the code, producing a fatal error: symbol referencing errors. No output written. Can anybody please help? (4 Replies)
I need to develop a makefile that spans across directories. For example, let's say i have an upper level directory (main) and about 2 subdirectories. I want my .cpp files and .o files to be in one subdirectory. I want my .a files to be in the other subdirectory. The .a files are made up of the... (0 Replies)

Are the programs written on schedulers ,thread library , process management, memory management, et al called systems programs ? How are they different from the programs that implement functions like open() , printf() , scanf() , read() .. they have a prefix sys_open, sys_close, sys_read etc , right... (1 Reply)
I have several programs in several directories and want to use make to build the executables. What I have done is to put the main programs in their own directory together with a makefile to build the program. Then I am thinking of having another makefile residing in the directory above so I can run... (1 Reply)

I am trying to practice to create Makefiles. The goal is to create a makefile such that if a change is made to any of the source code files, the project can be rebuilt by typing make at the command line.
I have the following files:
ac.cc: has include ac.h and pg.h
fr.cc: has main... (8 Replies)
Hey guys,
Suppose i run passwd via bash shell. It is a suid program, which temporarily runs as root(owner) and modifies the user entries.
However, when i write a C file and give 4755 permission and root ownership to the 'a.out' file , it doesn't run as root in bash shell. I verified this by... (2 Replies)
Hi All,
I was going through some makefiles where I saw occurrences of explib_subdirs and expinc_subdirs, which I could not understand.
Exporting libs to subdirs ? Exporting include files to specified subdirs ? When do we need to do that ?
What I could understand is, for a build, I would... (4 Replies)

kmk
KMK(1) simple makefiles for complex tasks KMK(1)NAME
kmk - framework for writing simple makefiles for complex tasks
SYNOPSIS
kmk [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
kmk and its helper tools are an extension to GNU make to ease writing portable Makefile.
The goals of the kBuild framework:
- Similar behavior cross all supported platforms.
- Flexibility, don't create unnecessary restrictions preventing ad-hoc solutions.
- Makefile can very simple to write and maintain.
There are four concepts being tried out in the current kBuild incaration:
- One configuration file for a subtree automatically included.
- Target configuration templates as the primary mechanism for makefile simplification.
- Tools and SDKs for helping out the templates with flexibility.
- Non-recursive makefile method by using sub-makefiles.
kBuild does not provide any facilities for checking compiler/library/header configurations, that's not in its scope. If this is important
for your project, check out the autoconf tool in the GNU build system. It is possible to use kBuild together with autoconf if you like, but
you might just as well use the full GNU package.
On Debian systems, the kBuild binaries can be found in /usr/bin and its data files in /usr/share/kBuild.
