 tom7 @ cs cmu edu : makefile tutorial
Generally this file is called 'makefile' (usually lowercase, sometimes 'Makefile'), and the command used to process makefiles is 'make' or 'gmake'.
In this makefile we split the compiling process into two steps: generation of the *.o object files (compilation) and generation of the lab13 executable (linking).
This makefile uses variables to promote reusability; you can use this same makefile for a different project by simply changing the program name and the list of support.o files.

 LLVM Makefile Guide   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
Although makefile systems such as automake were attempted at one point, it has become clear that the features needed by LLVM and the Makefile norm are too great to use a more limited tool.
The LLVM Makefile System is the component of LLVM that is responsible for building the software, testing it, generating distributions, checking those distributions, installing and uninstalling, etc. It consists of a several files throughout the source tree.
User Makefiles need not have comments in them unless the construction is unusual or it does not strictly follow the rules and patterns of the LLVM makefile system.

 Makefile Tutorial -- CS361
Make is a program that looks for a file called "makefile" or "Makefile", within the makefile are variables and things called dependencies.
There are many things you can do with makefiles, if all you've ever done with makefiles is compile C or C++ then you are missing out.
Life is a whole lot simpler with makefiles, for a final addition to our makefile lets make something that cleans out all our code, starting with what we had before, we simply add a new dependency, named "clean".

It is quite possible to build a makefile so that the Unix make utility compiles and links in the same manner as done by the VMS command files many people are familiar with, i.e., compile all source files and then link all object files to create the executable.
It is even possible to create a single makefile that contains all the instructions and macros for generating many different codes, and then use that makefile to compile only one code at a time.

The top Makefile is responsible for building two major products: vmlinux (the resident kernel image) and modules (any module files).
This allows the Makefiles to use the value of a CONFIG_ symbol to determine if an object is part of a composite object.

At present the Makefile is only known to function properly when run in the Cygwin bash shell; support for the similar MinGW MSYS (Minimal SYStem) development environment has not been accomplished yet but is planned.
The Makefile should not ever need to be edited, as all the parameters controlling its functioning are accessed through the macros listed when the user types `make -f libpngMakefile.gnu help' [or 'usage'].
Also, this Makefile tries earnestly to keep the user informed of what is happening and to clean up after itself when it has completed a phase of operation.

 Makefile Tutorial
First of all, anyone who does not know how to write a makefile must have missed the first discussion section (in the second week of class), because there was a handout on makefiles and tar.
When checking the dependencies, the makefiles checks if any of the dependent files are targets, and if so, it looks at those dependencies, and, based on the timestamp, it may run commands to update the dependent files, and then update the target.
It will look for a makefile with the name in the current directory and run the commands of the first target, assuming that it has to based on the dependencies.

Once the generic makefile is invoked, it will expand the PARMACS macros (if needed) in the source files, and compile, link, and predecode the target.
Note that with the generic makefile, all source files will be recompiled if any of the source or header-files changes.

 Automating Program Compilation - Writing Makefiles
A makefile is a collection of instructions that should be used to compile your program.
This is especially useful when trying to compile the same source code with different compilers, or on different platforms, where even a basic command such as "rm" might reside in a different directory on each platform.
Since this file is then included by the makefile, when we'll compile the program itself, these dependencies will be checked during program compilation.

 Makefile Tutorial
Compiling your source code files can be tedious, specially when you want to include several source files and have to type the compiling command everytime you want to do it.
Makefiles are special format files that together with the make utility will help you to automagically build and manage your projects.
It is useful to have such target if you want to have a fast way to get rid of all the object files and executables.

 UWA Theoretical Chemistry - Recompile   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
Basic makefiles do not allow for this, as compilers usually replace a module information file even if it's contents have not changed.
Further down this page, it is shown how to extend Makefiles to deal with multiple modules per filename, module names in uppercase/lowercase, and modules that simply have a name unrelated to their source files.
In this method, the Makefile itself is written almost as if the module recompilation issue does not exist.

 Info: (gettext.info.gz) Makefile   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
Special rules in the `Makefiles' take care for the case where no internationalization is wanted.
If you are using Makefiles, either generated by automake, or hand-written so they carefully follow the GNU coding standards, the effected goals for which the new subdirectories must be handled include `installdirs', `install', `uninstall', `clean', `distclean'.
A delicate point is the `dist:' goal, as both `intl/Makefile' and `po/Makefile' will later assume that the proper directory has been set up from the main `Makefile'.

 Using a makefile for managing a C++ program project
A "makefile" is typically a list of rules and dependencies with corresponding commands to create "targets" using the rules and dependencies.
The purpose of the make utility is to build, upon request *by you* the user, the executable program from a set of files you describe in the actual makefile itself.
If you have separate directories for each assignment(a good idea) then naming the file "makefile" is perfectly logical, since it will be in the directory of the files to "make".

Behind the scenes, all of this occurs within Doozer++ makefile stubs, but it is directed by variable settings in the glue makefile.
In all but one module in the Juggler Project, the basic structure of the glue makefile is the same: one makefile that defines high-level targets, and one included makefile that does all the work.
As with most makefiles, the first thing done is the definition of a default target, and the glue makefile is no exception.

Both the initialization file and the makefile are composed of the following components: comments, dependency lines, directives, macros, response files, rules and shell lines.
The simplest makefile statement is a comment, which is indicated by the comment character “#”.
The layout of this makefile is fairly traditional — macros are defined first, the primary target follows the macros and the extra dependency information is last.

It is traditional to use upper case letters in variable names, but we recommend using lower case letters for variable names that serve internal purposes in the makefile, and reserving upper case for parameters that control implicit rules or for parameters that the user should override with command options (see section Overriding Variables).

 Makefile Guidelines   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
Within the context of concurrent software development across platforms, it is necessary to provide a system in which an individual's archives and executables are kept separate from other members of the group until they have been well-tested, at which point they may be installed in a central location.
This philosophy is supported in the Standard Makefile scheme by appropriately defining the actions of a standard set of make targets.
This file should be included in the module Makefile before the definition of any additional targets to ensure that "all" is the default target.

 A Simple Makefile Tutorial   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
Makefiles are a simple way to organize code compilation.
Without a makefile, the typical approach to the test/modify/debug cycle is to use the up arrow in a terminal to go back to your last compile command so you don't have to type it each time, especially once you've added a few more.c files to the mix.
Using this form of makefile is sufficient for most small scale projects.
