How to define dynamic Target/Prerequisite in Makefile?
I am writing a Makefile for Cobol on Linux.My sample Makefile looks like below.
I do not want to Hardcode Program names in Makefile.Is there any way we can mention directories in Target and Prerequisites instead of File names sothat Makefile Pickup all the files in mentioned path as below.
================================
================================
currently I am using following command which I can trigger thru Shell script.
-bash-3.2$ make sourcename=A
-bash-3.2$ make sourcename=B
-bash-3.2$ make sourcename=C
-bash-3.2$ make sourcename=D
looking forward for inputs on this.
Note .cbl is a extension for cobol code and .int is its exectable

target, exactly the same as main should be built, but then with the
DEBUG flag (-g -D... (2 Replies)

xmkmf
XMKMF(1) General Commands Manual XMKMF(1)NAME
xmkmf - create a Makefile from an Imakefile
SYNOPSIS
xmkmf [ -a ] [ topdir [ curdir ] ]
DESCRIPTION
The xmkmf command is the normal way to create a Makefile from an Imakefile shipped with third-party software.
When invoked with no arguments in a directory containing an Imakefile, the imake program is run with arguments appropriate for your system
(configured into xmkmf when X was built) and generates a Makefile.
When invoked with the -a option, xmkmf builds the Makefile in the current directory, and then automatically executes ``make Makefiles'' (in
case there are subdirectories), ``make includes'', and ``make depend'' for you. This is the normal way to configure software that is out-
side the X Consortium build tree.
If working inside the X Consortium build tree (unlikely unless you are an X developer, and even then this option is never really used), the
topdir argument should be specified as the relative pathname from the current directory to the top of the build tree. Optionally, curdir
may be specified as a relative pathname from the top of the build tree to the current directory. It is necessary to supply curdir if the
current directory has subdirectories, or the Makefile will not be able to build the subdirectories. If a topdir is given, xmkmf assumes
nothing is installed on your system and looks for files in the build tree instead of using the installed versions.
