- Short: Port of GNU make with SAS/C (no ixemul.library required)
- Author: GNU, Amiga port by Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla
- Uploader: Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla (digulla@fh-konstanz.de)
- Type: dev/c
-
- This is a pure Amiga port of GNU make 3.74. It needs no extra libraries or
- anything. It has the following features (in addition to any features of
- GNU make):
-
- - Runs Amiga-Commands with SystemTags() (Execute)
- - Can run multi-line statements
- - Allows to use Device-Names in targets:
-
- c:make : make.o
-
- is ok. To distinguish between device-names and target : or ::, MAKE
- looks for spaces. If there are any around :, it's taken as a target
- delimiter, if there are none, it's taken as the name of a device. Note
- that "make:make.o" tries to create "make.o" on the device "make:".
- - Replaces @@ by a newline in any command line:
-
- if exists make @@\
- delete make.bak quiet @@\
- rename make make.bak @@\
- endif @@\
- $(CC) Link Make.o To make
-
- works. Note that the @@ must stand alone (ie. "make@@\" is illegal).
- Also be carefull that there is a space after the "\" (ie, at the
- beginning of the next line).
- - Can be made resident to save space and time
- - To use "#?" as a wildcard, you must enclose it in "":
-
- delete "#?.o"
-
- BUGS:
- - The line
-
- dummy.h : src/*.c
-
- tries to make dummy.h from "src/*.c" (ie. no wildcard-expansion takes
- place). You have to use "$(wildcard src/*.c)" instead.
-
- COMPILING FROM SCRATCH
-
- To recompile, you need SAS/C 6.51. make itself is not neccessary, there
- is an smakefile.
-
- 1. Copy config.ami to config.h
- 2. If you use make to compie, copy Makefile.ami to Makefile and
- glob/Makefile.ami to glob/Makefile. Copy make into the current
- directory.
-
- 3. Run smake/make
-
- INSTALLATION
-
- Copy make somewhere in your search path (eg. sc:c or sc:bin).
- If you plan to use recursive makes, install make resident:
-
- Resident make Add
