Note: All dependency files will automatically remade on the next run of make before they are included. .TP clean to remove .I core files and all intermediate object files. .TP clobber to remove the targets from .IR clean , all dependency files and all final targets .TP distclean to remove the targets from .IR clean " and " clobber and all made files for all architectures. .TP tags to make .IR vi (1) compatible tags .TP TAGS to make .IR emacs (1) compatible tags .TP config reserved for future use. .TP rmtarget to remove the default target .TP relink to remove the default target and remake it immediately. This can be used to change .e.g LD_RUN_PATH in the executable. .SH DESCRIPTION Makefiles is a set of rules that allows compiling of structured projects with small and uniformly structured makefiles. All rules are located in a central directory. Compiling the projects on different platforms can be done without the need to modify any of the makefiles that are located in the projects directories. .PP Three make programs are supported: .IR "Sunpro make" , .I "GNU make" and .IR smake . .PP .I BSDmake could be supported if it supports pattern matching rules correctly. .PP The main design goal was to have a set of small and easy to read makefiles, each located in the project's leaf directory and therefore called .IR leaf -makefile. .PP Each of these .IR leaf -makefiles, in fact contains no rule at all. It simply defines some macros for the .IR make -program and includes two files from a central make rule depository. The included files and the files that are recursively included define the rules that are needed to compile the project. .PP Each .IR leaf -makefile is formed in a really simple way: .TP \(bu It first defines two macros that define the relative location of the project's root directory and the name of the directory that contains the complete set of of rules and then includes the rule file .I rules.top from the directory that forms the central rule depository. You only have to edit the macro .I SRCROOT to reflect the relative location of the project's root directory. .TP \(bu The next part of a .IR leaf -makefile defines macros that describe the target and the source. You can only have one target per .IR leaf -makefile. Of course, there may be many source files, that are needed to create that target. If you want to make more than one target in a specific directory, you have to put more than one makefile into that directory. This is the part of a makefile that describes a unique target. Edit this part to contain all source files, all local include files and all non global compile time flags that are needed for your target. For a typical target this is as simple as filling in a form. .TP \(bu Each .IR leaf -makefile finally includes a file from the rules directory that contains rules for the appropriate type of target that is to be made from this .IR leaf -makefile. .PP The makefile in each directory has to be called .IR Makefile . If you want to have more than one makefile in a specific directory, you have to choose different names for the other makefiles. .PP There are rules for the following type of targets: .TP 20 commands The make rules for user level commands like .IR cat ", " ls etc. are located in the file .I rules.cmd .TP drivers The make rules for device drivers are located in the file .I rules.drv .TP libraries The make rules for non shared libraries are located in the file .I rules.lib .TP shared libraries The make rules for shared libraries are located in the file .I rules.shl .TP localized files The make rules for localized files are located in the file .I rules.loc .TP nonlocalized files The make rules for non localized files are located in the file .I rules.aux .TP shell scripts The make rules for shell scripts (a variant of localized files) are located in the file .I rules.scr .TP manual pages The make rules for manual pages (a variant of localized files) are located in the file .I rules.man .TP diverted makefiles The make rules for projects that need to have more than one makefile in a specific directory are located in the file .I rules.mks It contains a rule that diverts to the listed sub makefiles. Each sub makefile may be of any type. .TP directories The make rules for sub directories are located in the file .I rules.dir .SH "Macros/Variables Used In Rules .PP The following is a description of the most important macros used within the make rules. .I NOTE: not all of them might be changed in a specific makefile. Carefully read the description and change only those macros that are intended to be used to change the behavior of the compilation. .TP 13 ARCHDIR contains the location where object files and make targets will be placed. A typical name would be: .I "OBJ/sparc\-sunos5\-cc .br Do not change this macro. . .TP ASFLAGS The flags that are used with the assembler. .br Do not change this macro. . .TP ASMFILES a list of assembler source files, to be specified in a leaf makefile. . .TP ASOPTS The internal macro that contains the flags for the assembler. Change this macro if you want to change the behavior. Use: .B "ASOPTS= value" If you want to override the default value. If you want to override the default assembler flags from the command line call: .B "make 'ASOPTS=value'" Use: .B "ASOPTS += value" If you want to add flags to the default value from within a makefile. . .TP ASOPTX may be used if you want to add flags to the assembler flags from the command line. Use: .B "make 'ASOPTX=value' . .TP C_ARCH this macro contains the c-compiler architecture name. .br Do not change this macro. . .TP CCOM This macro may be used from the command line to use a different c-compiler than the default. Use: .B "make 'CCOM=gcc' to use .I gcc for the next run. Note: The value of .I CCOM must not necessarily be identical to the real name of the c-compiler. It refers to a filename which contains the definition for that c-compiler. This hint applies as well to all other macros that deal with the name of the c-compiler. The only macro, that contains the real invocation name of the c-compiler, is .IR CC . .I CC is set inside the machine dependent configuration file in the central rules depository and must not be changed elsewhere. . .TP CFILES a list of C source files, to be specified in a leaf makefile. . .TP CFLAGS The flags that are used with the c-compiler. Do not use flags that belong to the c-preprocessor in the .IR COPTOPT ", " COPTS " and " COPTX macros. .br Do not change this macro. . .TP CLEAN_FILES A list of files ( besides the object files ) that will be removed with .IR "make clean" . .br Do not change this macro. . .TP CLEAN_FILEX this macro may be used to define additional files that should be removed with .IR "make clean" . . .TP CLOBBER_FILEX this macro may be used to define additional files that should be removed with .IR "make clobber" . . .TP COPTOPT The c-compiler optimization flag.

Change this macro if you want to change the behavior. Use: .B "COPTS= value" If you want to override the default value. If you want to override the default c-compiler flags from the command line call: .B "make 'COPTS=value'" Use: .B "COPTS += value" If you want to add flags to the default value from within a makefile. . .TP COPTX may be used if you want to add flags to the c-compiler flags from the command line. Use: .B "make 'COPTX=value' . .TP CPPFLAGS The flags that are used with the c-preprocessor. This macro as well as: .IR CPPOPTS " and " CPPOPTX are also used when compiling c-programs. They should contain only the following flags: .IR "\-Dname=value ", " \-Uname " , " .IR \-Idirectory " and " \-Ydirectory . .br Do not change this macro. . .TP CPPOPTS The internal macro that contains the flags for the c-preprocessor. Change this macro if you want to change the behavior. Use: .B "CPPOPTS= value" If you want to override the default value. If you want to override the default c-preprocessor flags from the command line call: .B "make 'CPPOPTS=value'" Use: .B "CPPOPTS += value" If you want to add flags to the default value from within a makefile. . .TP CPPOPTX may be used if you want to add flags to the c-preprocessor flags from the command line.

This may be used to hold two or more set of defaults that differ e.g. in the installation path or the C-compiler. . .TP DEFAULTSROOT this macro may be set in a leaf makefile, if that makefile wants to use a .I Defaults file that is not located in .I $(DEFAULTSDIR) in the source root. This may be used, if a sub tree in a big project needs a different setup. . .TP DEFLTSDIR This is an internally used macro that is set from .I $(DEFAULTSDIR) or from the internal defaults. .br Do not change this macro. . .TP DEFLTSROOT This is an internally used macro that is set from .I $(DEFAULTSROOT) or from the internal defaults. .br Do not change this macro. . .TP DEFCCOM the default name of the c-compiler.

If this macro is not set, .I $(SRCROOT)/include is used. . .TP DIRNAME this macro needs to be set in the makefile that is located in the .I "$(SRCROOT) directory. The value should be either set to the name of the directory where the makefile is located or to .BR SRCROOT . The value of this macro is updated automatically to follow the directory hierarchy. Do not change this macro in a make file other than the make file in the source root. . .TP DIRS this macro needs to be set in a makefile that is located in a directory that contains diversion directories. It must contain a list of directory names where the diversions go to e.g. .BR "DIRS= libfoo libbar libgarbage" . . .TP HFILES for normal operation, .I makefiles will automatically find which include files are needed for compilation. However, if you want to create a tag file that includes tags for definitions that occur within include files, you should set .I HFILES to be a list of include files containing such definitions. . .TP INCDIRS this macro will normally be a copy from .IR DEFINCDIRS . You may however specify a different value in a leaf makefile or from command line. This will overwrite the defaults value. . .TP INS_BASE this macro has to be specified in the file .I $(DEFLTSROOT)/$(DEFLTSDIR)/Defaults or .IR $(DEFLTSROOT)/$(DEFLTSDIR)/Defaults.$(O_ARCH) . It must contain the path name of the root for installing general targets of the project.

Change this macro if you want to change the behavior. Use: .B "LDOPTS= value" If you want to override the default value. If you want to override the default linker flags from the command line call: .B "make 'LDOPTS=value'" Use: .B "LDOPTS += value" If you want to add flags to the default value from within a makefile. . .TP LDOPTX may be used if you want to add flags to the linker flags from the command line. Use: .B "make 'LDOPTX=value' . .TP LDPATH the default library search path for the linker.

Add .I "$(LIB_SOCKET) to your list of libraries (e.g. .BR "LIBS= \-lintl $(LIB_SOCKET)" ), if your target uses sockets. Note: this should (for portability reasons) even be done on systems that don't require a socket library because they have the socket interface inside libc. . .TP LIBS_PATH this macro contains the path to a directory where those libraries are located, that have been build during a make run inside the current project. .br Do not change this macro. . .TP M_ARCH this macro contains the machine architecture for the target machine (e.g. .IR "sun3 sun4 ip22 i86pc i586 9000\-725 aviion" ).

Makefile names for sub makes should have a name that is build by adding .I .mk to the base name of the target that is defined inside the specific makefile. . .TP MAKEPROG Set this macro to the name of your make program if it does not support the macro .IR MAKE_NAME . The make program .I smake is able to identify itself. If you want to use a make program that is not able to identify itself and it's name is not .IR make , set .I MAKEPROG to the name of the make program. Currently only .I gmake is supported as alternate value for .IR MAKEPROG . If you want to use an unsupported make program you have to check if it supports the needed features for .IR makefiles . You must write your own rule files for that make program. If you want to use .IR gmake , you should do .B "setenv MAKEPROG gmake before you start .I gmake or use a shell script that does this job for you. . .TP MAKE This macro is set up by the .I make program. It contains a path name that is sufficient to recursively call the same .I make program again (either that last path component or the full path name of the make program). .br Do not change this macro. . .TP MAKEFLAGS This macro is set up by the .I make program.

If you want to make e.g. .I libfoo define .IR "TARGETLIB= foo" . This is needed to allow operating systems to have different naming conventions for libraries. If you are making a non shared library, the example above would result in a filename: .I libfoo.a for the real target. . .TP TARGETMAN this macro must be set in a leaf makefile for manual pages to define the base name for that manual page (not including the suffix). . .TP XMK_FILE makefiles that want to install manual pages should set .I XMK_FILE to .B Makefile.man to avoid having to install a diversion make file.

Don't forget to create a makefile and an appropriate .I Targetdirs.archname file on each node directory. .SH EXAMPLES .PP If you want to set up a private copy of parts of a project, you should choose a directory inside your directory tree that will become the shadow projects source root directory. Then create symbolic links named .IR RULES " and " TEMPLATES to the real source root. If you don't want to modify the global include files, create a symbolic link to the .I include directory too, else copy the include directory and its content. copy the top level makefile, the .I Defaults file and the .I Targetdirs.archname file. .PP Finally copy the desired sub tree together with all makefiles and the .I Targetdirs.archname files that are located in the directories above your part of the project that you want to have separately. .SH FILES \&.\|.\|./RULES/* .br \&.\|.\|./DEFAULTS/* .br \&.\|.\|./TARGETS/* .br \&.\|.\|./TEMPLATES/* .SH "SEE ALSO" .BR makerules (4), .BR make (1), .BR gmake (1), .BR smake (1). .PP If you want to know, how to add new rules or how to add support for new operating systems or compilers look into .BR makerules (4). .SH DIAGNOSTICS Diagnostic messages depend on the make program. Have a look at the appropriate man page. .SH NOTES The scope of this manual is only the usage of .BR "leaf makefiles" . If you want to make changes to the .B make rules have a look at .BR makerules (4). .PP .I makefiles can be used with .IR "Sunpro make" ", " "Gnu make" and .IR smake . Although Gnu make runs on many platforms, it has no useful debug output. .PP Use .IR "Sunpro make" " or " "smake" if you have problems with a makefile. .IR "Sunpro make" " and " "smake" , both have a \-D flag, that allows you to watch the makefiles after the first expansion. Use this option, if you are in doubt if your makefile gets expanded the right way and if the right rules are included. There is also a \-d option that gives debugging output while make is running. If you want more output, use \-dd, \-ddd and so on. .PP .I Smake has an option \-xM that shows you the include dependency for make rules. .PP .ne 20 The following is a list of all macros that are used in .IR makefiles .
