Problem creating a makefile
hello, I'm trying to create a makefile to run multiple c files. I am able to run one c file only with the code I have when I tried to run 2 or more c files I'm not able. here is my code
Code:
# $Source: /home/hectormasencio/make/Makefile,v $
# $Date: 2012/11/27 11:35:30 $

CC= gcc

OBJS= temp.o prueba.o


.c.o:
    $(CC) -c -Wall $(CFLAGS)  $< 
    
all:    temp 

temp: $(OBJS)
    $(CC) $(OBJS) -o temp -lm

clean:
    rm -f *.o core

clobber: clean
    rm -f temp TEST




# End Makefile


when I tried to add the other c file for the prueba.o object I'm not able to run, what line of code do I have to add so that I can run 2 or more main c files in this makefile.Smilie

You need a rule like:

Code:
executable:$(OBJS)
        $(CC) $(OBJS) $(LDFLAGS) -o $@

Then do 'make executable'.

it still giving me the same problem. I have these files:
temp.c
prueba.c
they are both different programs not related to each other. I manage to call the firs program temp.c without problem but when I implement those lines of code to try to execute the second file it call the first one and since I don't use the -lm in the second program compilation because I'm not using the math.h in prueba.c it gave me the error.

Make both executables separate rules, then, and have an 'all' rule which requires both of them so both get made when you do 'make all'.

Code:
all:executable1 executable2

executable1:object1.o
        $(CC) object1.o $(LDFLAGS) -o $@

executable2:object2.o
        $(CC) object2.o $(LDFLAGS) -o $@
