NAME

       mkdep - generate dependency list from a C program

SYNOPSIS

       mkdep [-a] [-f depend_file] [-p] [cc_options] file...

       The mkdep command generates a dependency list file from a C source program.

OPTIONS

       Causes mkdep to append its output to the end of the dependency file instead of creating a new dependency file.  If the dependency file does
       not exist, mkdep creates it.  Specifies a name for the dependency file; overrides the default file name Inhibits mkdep from  appending  the
       suffix to the names of object files listed in the output.

DESCRIPTION

       The  mkdep  command uses cc(1) to compile a list of dependency files required to build the named C program file or files.  The list is for-
       matted so that it is suitable for inclusion into a makefile for make(1).  Duplicate dependency listings for a given  program  are  included
       only once in the output.

       You can specify C compiler options by including them in the command line; mkdep passes all unrecognized options through to the compiler.

       By default, mkdep writes to a file named -f option to specify an alternative output file name.

EXAMPLES

       The following example illustrates the use of mkdep with the -p option:

       % cat hello.c #include <stdio.h>

       main() {

	       printf("%s0","Hello  World!");  }  %  mkdep  -p	-f  hello.depend  hello.c  % cat hello.depend hello:  hello.c /usr/include/stdio.h
       /usr/include/standards.h   hello:    /usr/include/sys/types.h   /usr/include/standards.h    hello:     /usr/include/mach/machine/vm_types.h
       /usr/include/sys/limits.h   hello:    /usr/include/standards.h	/usr/include/machine/machlimits.h   hello:    /usr/include/sys/syslimits.h
       /usr/include/float.h hello:  /usr/include/standards.h /usr/include/fp_class.h hello:  /usr/include/machine/machtime.h

NAME

     md -- process raw dependency files produced by cpp -MD

SYNOPSIS

     md [-d] [-f] [-m makefile] [-u makefile] [-o outputfile] [-v] [-x] [-D c|d|m|o|t|D]

DESCRIPTION

     The md command basically does two things:

     Process the raw dependency files produced by the cpp -MD option.  There is one line in the file for every #include encountered, but there are
     repeats and patterns like .../dir1/../dir2 that appear which should reduce to .../dir2.  md canonicalizes and flushes repeats from the depen-
     dency list.  It also sorts the file names and "fills" them to a 78 character line.

     md also updates the makefile directly with the dependency information, so the .d file can be thrown away (see d option).  This is done to
     save space.  md assumes that dependency information in the makefile is sorted by .o file name and it procedes to merge in (add/or replace [as
     appropriate]) the new dependency lines that it has generated.  For time efficiency, md assumes that any .d files it is given that were cre-
     ated before the creation date of the "makefile" were processed already.  It ignores them unless the force flag [f] is given.

FLAG SUMMARY

     -D c|D|d|m|o|t
	     Specify debugging option(s):

	     c	     show file contents

	     D	     show very low level debugging

	     d	     show new dependency crunching

	     m	     show generation of makefile

	     o	     show files being opened

	     t	     show time comparisons

     -d      Delete the .d file after it is processed

     -f      Force an update of the dependencies in the makefile, even if the makefile is more recent than the .n file.  (This implies that md has
	     been run already.)

     -m makefile
	     Specify the makefile to be upgraded.  The defaults are makefile and then Makefile.

     -o outputfile
	     Specify an output file (other than a makefile) for the dependencies.

     -u makefile
	     Like -m, but the file will be created if necessary.

     -v      Set the verbose flag.

     -x      Expunge old dependency information from the makefile.
