File: make.info, Node: Overview, Next: Introduction, Prev: Top, Up: Top Overview of `make' ****************** The `make' utility automatically determines which pieces of a large program need to be recompiled, and issues commands to recompile them. This manual describes GNU `make', which was implemented by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath. GNU `make' conforms to section 6.2 of `IEEE Standard 1003.2-1992' (POSIX.2). Our examples show C programs, since they are most common, but you can use `make' with any programming language whose compiler can be run with a shell command. Indeed, `make' is not limited to programs. You can use it to describe any task where some files must be updated automatically from others whenever the others change. * Menu: * Preparing:: Preparing and Running Make * Reading:: On Reading this Text * Bugs:: Problems and Bugs  File: make.info, Node: Preparing, Next: Reading, Up: Overview Preparing and Running Make ========================== To prepare to use `make', you must write a file called the "makefile" that describes the relationships among files in your program and provides commands for updating each file. In a program, typically, the executable file is updated from object files, which are in turn made by compiling source files. Once a suitable makefile exists, each time you change some source files, this simple shell command: make suffices to perform all necessary recompilations. The `make' program uses the makefile data base and the last-modification times of the files to decide which of the files need to be updated. For each of those files, it issues the commands recorded in the data base. You can provide command line arguments to `make' to control which files should be recompiled, or how. *Note How to Run `make': Running.  File: make.info, Node: Reading, Next: Bugs, Prev: Preparing, Up: Overview How to Read This Manual ======================= If you are new to `make', or are looking for a general introduction, read the first few sections of each chapter, skipping the later sections. In each chapter, the first few sections contain introductory or general information and the later sections contain specialized or technical information. The exception is the second chapter, *Note An Introduction to Makefiles: Introduction, all of which is introductory. If you are familiar with other `make' programs, see *Note Features of GNU `make': Features, which lists the enhancements GNU `make' has, and *Note Incompatibilities and Missing Features: Missing, which explains the few things GNU `make' lacks that others have. For a quick summary, see *Note Options Summary::, *Note Quick Reference::, and *Note Special Targets::.  File: make.info, Node: Bugs, Prev: Reading, Up: Overview Problems and Bugs ================= If you have problems with GNU `make' or think you've found a bug, please report it to the developers; we cannot promise to do anything but we might well want to fix it. Before reporting a bug, make sure you've actually found a real bug. Carefully reread the documentation and see if it really says you can do what you're trying to do. If it's not clear whether you should be able to do something or not, report that too; it's a bug in the documentation! Before reporting a bug or trying to fix it yourself, try to isolate it to the smallest possible makefile that reproduces the problem. Then send us the makefile and the exact results `make' gave you. Also say what you expected to occur; this will help us decide whether the problem was really in the documentation. Once you've got a precise problem, please send electronic mail either through the Internet or via UUCP: Internet address: bug-gnu-utils@prep.ai.mit.edu UUCP path: mit-eddie!prep.ai.mit.edu!bug-gnu-utils Please include the version number of `make' you are using. You can get this information with the command `make --version'. Be sure also to include the type of machine and operating system you are using. If possible, include the contents of the file `config.h' that is generated by the configuration process. Non-bug suggestions are always welcome as well. If you have questions about things that are unclear in the documentation or are just obscure features, send a message to the bug reporting address. We cannot guarantee you'll get help with your problem, but many seasoned `make' users read the mailing list and they will probably try to help you out. The maintainers sometimes answer such questions as well, when time permits.  File: make.info, Node: Introduction, Next: Makefiles, Prev: Overview, Up: Top An Introduction to Makefiles **************************** You need a file called a "makefile" to tell `make' what to do. Most often, the makefile tells `make' how to compile and link a program. In this chapter, we will discuss a simple makefile that describes how to compile and link a text editor which consists of eight C source files and three header files. The makefile can also tell `make' how to run miscellaneous commands when explicitly asked (for example, to remove certain files as a clean-up operation). To see a more complex example of a makefile, see *Note Complex Makefile::. When `make' recompiles the editor, each changed C source file must be recompiled. If a header file has changed, each C source file that includes the header file must be recompiled to be safe. Each compilation produces an object file corresponding to the source file. Finally, if any source file has been recompiled, all the object files, whether newly made or saved from previous compilations, must be linked together to produce the new executable editor. * Menu: * Rule Introduction:: What a rule looks like. * Simple Makefile:: A Simple Makefile * How Make Works:: How `make' Processes This Makefile * Variables Simplify:: Variables Make Makefiles Simpler * make Deduces:: Letting `make' Deduce the Commands * Combine By Dependency:: Another Style of Makefile * Cleanup:: Rules for Cleaning the Directory  File: make.info, Node: Rule Introduction, Next: Simple Makefile, Up: Introduction What a Rule Looks Like ====================== A simple makefile consists of "rules" with the following shape: TARGET ... : DEPENDENCIES ... COMMAND ... ... A "target" is usually the name of a file that is generated by a program; examples of targets are executable or object files. A target can also be the name of an action to carry out, such as `clean' (*note Phony Targets::.). A "dependency" is a file that is used as input to create the target. A target often depends on several files. A "command" is an action that `make' carries out. A rule may have more than one command, each on its own line. *Please note:* you need to put a tab character at the beginning of every command line! This is an obscurity that catches the unwary. Usually a command is in a rule with dependencies and serves to create a target file if any of the dependencies change. However, the rule that specifies commands for the target need not have dependencies. For example, the rule containing the delete command associated with the target `clean' does not have dependencies. A "rule", then, explains how and when to remake certain files which are the targets of the particular rule. `make' carries out the commands on the dependencies to create or update the target. A rule can also explain how and when to carry out an action. *Note Writing Rules: Rules. A makefile may contain other text besides rules, but a simple makefile need only contain rules. Rules may look somewhat more complicated than shown in this template, but all fit the pattern more or less.  File: make.info, Node: Simple Makefile, Next: How Make Works, Prev: Rule Introduction, Up: Introduction A Simple Makefile ================= Here is a straightforward makefile that describes the way an executable file called `edit' depends on eight object files which, in turn, depend on eight C source and three header files. In this example, all the C files include `defs.h', but only those defining editing commands include `command.h', and only low level files that change the editor buffer include `buffer.h'. edit : main.o kbd.o command.o display.o \ insert.o search.o files.o utils.o cc -o edit main.o kbd.o command.o display.o \ insert.o search.o files.o utils.o main.o : main.c defs.h cc -c main.c kbd.o : kbd.c defs.h command.h cc -c kbd.c command.o : command.c defs.h command.h cc -c command.c display.o : display.c defs.h buffer.h cc -c display.c insert.o : insert.c defs.h buffer.h cc -c insert.c search.o : search.c defs.h buffer.h cc -c search.c files.o : files.c defs.h buffer.h command.h cc -c files.c utils.o : utils.c defs.h cc -c utils.c clean : rm edit main.o kbd.o command.o display.o \ insert.o search.o files.o utils.o We split each long line into two lines using backslash-newline; this is like using one long line, but is easier to read. To use this makefile to create the executable file called `edit', type: make To use this makefile to delete the executable file and all the object files from the directory, type: make clean In the example makefile, the targets include the executable file `edit', and the object files `main.o' and `kbd.o'. The dependencies are files such as `main.c' and `defs.h'. In fact, each `.o' file is both a target and a dependency. Commands include `cc -c main.c' and `cc -c kbd.c'. When a target is a file, it needs to be recompiled or relinked if any of its dependencies change. In addition, any dependencies that are themselves automatically generated should be updated first. In this example, `edit' depends on each of the eight object files; the object file `main.o' depends on the source file `main.c' and on the header file `defs.h'. A shell command follows each line that contains a target and dependencies. These shell commands say how to update the target file. A tab character must come at the beginning of every command line to distinguish commands lines from other lines in the makefile. (Bear in mind that `make' does not know anything about how the commands work. It is up to you to supply commands that will update the target file properly. All `make' does is execute the commands in the rule you have specified when the target file needs to be updated.) The target `clean' is not a file, but merely the name of an action. Since you normally do not want to carry out the actions in this rule, `clean' is not a dependency of any other rule. Consequently, `make' never does anything with it unless you tell it specifically. Note that this rule not only is not a dependency, it also does not have any dependencies, so the only purpose of the rule is to run the specified commands. Targets that do not refer to files but are just actions are called "phony targets". *Note Phony Targets::, for information about this kind of target. *Note Errors in Commands: Errors, to see how to cause `make' to ignore errors from `rm' or any other command.  File: make.info, Node: How Make Works, Next: Variables Simplify, Prev: Simple Makefile, Up: Introduction How `make' Processes a Makefile =============================== By default, `make' starts with the first rule (not counting rules whose target names start with `.'). This is called the "default goal". ("Goals" are the targets that `make' strives ultimately to update. *Note Arguments to Specify the Goals: Goals.) In the simple example of the previous section, the default goal is to update the executable program `edit'; therefore, we put that rule first. Thus, when you give the command: make `make' reads the makefile in the current directory and begins by processing the first rule. In the example, this rule is for relinking `edit'; but before `make' can fully process this rule, it must process the rules for the files that `edit' depends on, which in this case are the object files. Each of these files is processed according to its own rule. These rules say to update each `.o' file by compiling its source file. The recompilation must be done if the source file, or any of the header files named as dependencies, is more recent than the object file, or if the object file does not exist. The other rules are processed because their targets appear as dependencies of the goal. If some other rule is not depended on by the goal (or anything it depends on, etc.), that rule is not processed, unless you tell `make' to do so (with a command such as `make clean'). Before recompiling an object file, `make' considers updating its dependencies, the source file and header files. This makefile does not specify anything to be done for them--the `.c' and `.h' files are not the targets of any rules--so `make' does nothing for these files. But `make' would update automatically generated C programs, such as those made by Bison or Yacc, by their own rules at this time. After recompiling whichever object files need it, `make' decides whether to relink `edit'. This must be done if the file `edit' does not exist, or if any of the object files are newer than it. If an object file was just recompiled, it is now newer than `edit', so `edit' is relinked. Thus, if we change the file `insert.c' and run `make', `make' will compile that file to update `insert.o', and then link `edit'. If we change the file `command.h' and run `make', `make' will recompile the object files `kbd.o', `command.o' and `files.o' and then link the file `edit'.  File: make.info, Node: Variables Simplify, Next: make Deduces, Prev: How Make Works, Up: Introduction Variables Make Makefiles Simpler ================================ In our example, we had to list all the object files twice in the rule for `edit' (repeated here): edit : main.o kbd.o command.o display.o \ insert.o search.o files.o utils.o cc -o edit main.o kbd.o command.o display.o \ insert.o search.o files.o utils.o Such duplication is error-prone; if a new object file is added to the system, we might add it to one list and forget the other. We can eliminate the risk and simplify the makefile by using a variable. "Variables" allow a text string to be defined once and substituted in multiple places later (*note How to Use Variables: Using Variables.). It is standard practice for every makefile to have a variable named `objects', `OBJECTS', `objs', `OBJS', `obj', or `OBJ' which is a list of all object file names. We would define such a variable `objects' with a line like this in the makefile: objects = main.o kbd.o command.o display.o \ insert.o search.o files.o utils.o Then, each place we want to put a list of the object file names, we can substitute the variable's value by writing `$(objects)' (*note How to Use Variables: Using Variables.). Here is how the complete simple makefile looks when you use a variable for the object files: objects = main.o kbd.o command.o display.o \ insert.o search.o files.o utils.o edit : $(objects) cc -o edit $(objects) main.o : main.c defs.h cc -c main.c kbd.o : kbd.c defs.h command.h cc -c kbd.c command.o : command.c defs.h command.h cc -c command.c display.o : display.c defs.h buffer.h cc -c display.c insert.o : insert.c defs.h buffer.h cc -c insert.c search.o : search.c defs.h buffer.h cc -c search.c files.o : files.c defs.h buffer.h command.h cc -c files.c utils.o : utils.c defs.h cc -c utils.c clean : rm edit $(objects)  File: make.info, Node: make Deduces, Next: Combine By Dependency, Prev: Variables Simplify, Up: Introduction Letting `make' Deduce the Commands ================================== It is not necessary to spell out the commands for compiling the individual C source files, because `make' can figure them out: it has an "implicit rule" for updating a `.o' file from a correspondingly named `.c' file using a `cc -c' command. For example, it will use the command `cc -c main.c -o main.o' to compile `main.c' into `main.o'. We can therefore omit the commands from the rules for the object files. *Note Using Implicit Rules: Implicit Rules. When a `.c' file is used automatically in this way, it is also automatically added to the list of dependencies. We can therefore omit the `.c' files from the dependencies, provided we omit the commands. Here is the entire example, with both of these changes, and a variable `objects' as suggested above: objects = main.o kbd.o command.o display.o \ insert.o search.o files.o utils.o edit : $(objects) cc -o edit $(objects) main.o : defs.h kbd.o : defs.h command.h command.o : defs.h command.h display.o : defs.h buffer.h insert.o : defs.h buffer.h search.o : defs.h buffer.h files.o : defs.h buffer.h command.h utils.o : defs.h .PHONY : clean clean : -rm edit $(objects) This is how we would write the makefile in actual practice. (The complications associated with `clean' are described elsewhere. See *Note Phony Targets::, and *Note Errors in Commands: Errors.) Because implicit rules are so convenient, they are important. You will see them used frequently.  File: make.info, Node: Combine By Dependency, Next: Cleanup, Prev: make Deduces, Up: Introduction Another Style of Makefile ========================= When the objects of a makefile are created only by implicit rules, an alternative style of makefile is possible. In this style of makefile, you group entries by their dependencies instead of by their targets. Here is what one looks like: objects = main.o kbd.o command.o display.o \ insert.o search.o files.o utils.o edit : $(objects) cc -o edit $(objects) $(objects) : defs.h kbd.o command.o files.o : command.h display.o insert.o search.o files.o : buffer.h Here `defs.h' is given as a dependency of all the object files; `command.h' and `buffer.h' are dependencies of the specific object files listed for them. Whether this is better is a matter of taste: it is more compact, but some people dislike it because they find it clearer to put all the information about each target in one place.  File: make.info, Node: Cleanup, Prev: Combine By Dependency, Up: Introduction Rules for Cleaning the Directory ================================ Compiling a program is not the only thing you might want to write rules for. Makefiles commonly tell how to do a few other things besides compiling a program: for example, how to delete all the object files and executables so that the directory is `clean'. Here is how we could write a `make' rule for cleaning our example editor: clean: rm edit $(objects) In practice, we might want to write the rule in a somewhat more complicated manner to handle unanticipated situations. We would do this: .PHONY : clean clean : -rm edit $(objects) This prevents `make' from getting confused by an actual file called `clean' and causes it to continue in spite of errors from `rm'. (See *Note Phony Targets::, and *Note Errors in Commands: Errors.) A rule such as this should not be placed at the beginning of the makefile, because we do not want it to run by default! Thus, in the example makefile, we want the rule for `edit', which recompiles the editor, to remain the default goal. Since `clean' is not a dependency of `edit', this rule will not run at all if we give the command `make' with no arguments. In order to make the rule run, we have to type `make clean'. *Note How to Run `make': Running.  File: make.info, Node: Makefiles, Next: Rules, Prev: Introduction, Up: Top Writing Makefiles ***************** The information that tells `make' how to recompile a system comes from reading a data base called the "makefile". * Menu: * Makefile Contents:: What makefiles contain. * Makefile Names:: How to name your makefile. * Include:: How one makefile can use another makefile. * MAKEFILES Variable:: The environment can specify extra makefiles. * Remaking Makefiles:: How makefiles get remade. * Overriding Makefiles:: How to override part of one makefile with another makefile.  File: make.info, Node: Makefile Contents, Next: Makefile Names, Up: Makefiles What Makefiles Contain ====================== Makefiles contain five kinds of things: "explicit rules", "implicit rules", "variable definitions", "directives", and "comments". Rules, variables, and directives are described at length in later chapters. * An "explicit rule" says when and how to remake one or more files, called the rule's targets. It lists the other files that the targets "depend on", and may also give commands to use to create or update the targets. *Note Writing Rules: Rules. * An "implicit rule" says when and how to remake a class of files based on their names. It describes how a target may depend on a file with a name similar to the target and gives commands to create or update such a target. *Note Using Implicit Rules: Implicit Rules. * A "variable definition" is a line that specifies a text string value for a variable that can be substituted into the text later. The simple makefile example shows a variable definition for `objects' as a list of all object files (*note Variables Make Makefiles Simpler: Variables Simplify.). * A "directive" is a command for `make' to do something special while reading the makefile. These include: * Reading another makefile (*note Including Other Makefiles: Include.). * Deciding (based on the values of variables) whether to use or ignore a part of the makefile (*note Conditional Parts of Makefiles: Conditionals.). * Defining a variable from a verbatim string containing multiple lines (*note Defining Variables Verbatim: Defining.). * `#' in a line of a makefile starts a "comment". It and the rest of the line are ignored, except that a trailing backslash not escaped by another backslash will continue the comment across multiple lines. Comments may appear on any of the lines in the makefile, except within a `define' directive, and perhaps within commands (where the shell decides what is a comment). A line containing just a comment (with perhaps spaces before it) is effectively blank, and is ignored.  File: make.info, Node: Makefile Names, Next: Include, Prev: Makefile Contents, Up: Makefiles What Name to Give Your Makefile =============================== By default, when `make' looks for the makefile, it tries the following names, in order: `GNUmakefile', `makefile' and `Makefile'. Normally you should call your makefile either `makefile' or `Makefile'. (We recommend `Makefile' because it appears prominently near the beginning of a directory listing, right near other important files such as `README'.) The first name checked, `GNUmakefile', is not recommended for most makefiles. You should use this name if you have a makefile that is specific to GNU `make', and will not be understood by other versions of `make'. Other `make' programs look for `makefile' and `Makefile', but not `GNUmakefile'. If `make' finds none of these names, it does not use any makefile. Then you must specify a goal with a command argument, and `make' will attempt to figure out how to remake it using only its built-in implicit rules. *Note Using Implicit Rules: Implicit Rules. If you want to use a nonstandard name for your makefile, you can specify the makefile name with the `-f' or `--file' option. The arguments `-f NAME' or `--file=NAME' tell `make' to read the file NAME as the makefile. If you use more than one `-f' or `--file' option, you can specify several makefiles. All the makefiles are effectively concatenated in the order specified. The default makefile names `GNUmakefile', `makefile' and `Makefile' are not checked automatically if you specify `-f' or `--file'.  File: make.info, Node: Include, Next: MAKEFILES Variable, Prev: Makefile Names, Up: Makefiles Including Other Makefiles ========================= The `include' directive tells `make' to suspend reading the current makefile and read one or more other makefiles before continuing. The directive is a line in the makefile that looks like this: include FILENAMES... FILENAMES can contain shell file name patterns. Extra spaces are allowed and ignored at the beginning of the line, but a tab is not allowed. (If the line begins with a tab, it will be considered a command line.) Whitespace is required between `include' and the file names, and between file names; extra whitespace is ignored there and at the end of the directive. A comment starting with `#' is allowed at the end of the line. If the file names contain any variable or function references, they are expanded. *Note How to Use Variables: Using Variables. For example, if you have three `.mk' files, `a.mk', `b.mk', and `c.mk', and `$(bar)' expands to `bish bash', then the following expression include foo *.mk $(bar) is equivalent to include foo a.mk b.mk c.mk bish bash When `make' processes an `include' directive, it suspends reading of the containing makefile and reads from each listed file in turn. When that is finished, `make' resumes reading the makefile in which the directive appears. One occasion for using `include' directives is when several programs, handled by individual makefiles in various directories, need to use a common set of variable definitions (*note Setting Variables: Setting.) or pattern rules (*note Defining and Redefining Pattern Rules: Pattern Rules.). Another such occasion is when you want to generate dependencies from source files automatically; the dependencies can be put in a file that is included by the main makefile. This practice is generally cleaner than that of somehow appending the dependencies to the end of the main makefile as has been traditionally done with other versions of `make'. *Note Automatic Dependencies::. If the specified name does not start with a slash, and the file is not found in the current directory, several other directories are searched. First, any directories you have specified with the `-I' or `--include-dir' option are searched (*note Summary of Options: Options Summary.). Then the following directories (if they exist) are searched, in this order: `PREFIX/include' (normally `/usr/local/include') `/usr/gnu/include', `/usr/local/include', `/usr/include'. If an included makefile cannot be found in any of these directories, a warning message is generated, but it is not an immediately fatal error; processing of the makefile containing the `include' continues. Once it has finished reading makefiles, `make' will try to remake any that are out of date or don't exist. *Note How Makefiles Are Remade: Remaking Makefiles. Only after it has tried to find a way to remake a makefile and failed, will `make' diagnose the missing makefile as a fatal error. If you want `make' to simply ignore a makefile which does not exist and cannot be remade, with no error message, use the `-include' directive instead of `include', like this: -include FILENAMES... This is acts like `include' in every way except that there is no error (not even a warning) if any of the FILENAMES do not exist.  File: make.info, Node: MAKEFILES Variable, Next: Remaking Makefiles, Prev: Include, Up: Makefiles The Variable `MAKEFILES' ======================== If the environment variable `MAKEFILES' is defined, `make' considers its value as a list of names (separated by whitespace) of additional makefiles to be read before the others. This works much like the `include' directive: various directories are searched for those files (*note Including Other Makefiles: Include.). In addition, the default goal is never taken from one of these makefiles and it is not an error if the files listed in `MAKEFILES' are not found. The main use of `MAKEFILES' is in communication between recursive invocations of `make' (*note Recursive Use of `make': Recursion.). It usually is not desirable to set the environment variable before a top-level invocation of `make', because it is usually better not to mess with a makefile from outside. However, if you are running `make' without a specific makefile, a makefile in `MAKEFILES' can do useful things to help the built-in implicit rules work better, such as defining search paths (*note Directory Search::.). Some users are tempted to set `MAKEFILES' in the environment automatically on login, and program makefiles to expect this to be done. This is a very bad idea, because such makefiles will fail to work if run by anyone else. It is much better to write explicit `include' directives in the makefiles. *Note Including Other Makefiles: Include.  File: make.info, Node: Remaking Makefiles, Next: Overriding Makefiles, Prev: MAKEFILES Variable, Up: Makefiles How Makefiles Are Remade ======================== Sometimes makefiles can be remade from other files, such as RCS or SCCS files. If a makefile can be remade from other files, you probably want `make' to get an up-to-date version of the makefile to read in. To this end, after reading in all makefiles, `make' will consider each as a goal target and attempt to update it. If a makefile has a rule which says how to update it (found either in that very makefile or in another one) or if an implicit rule applies to it (*note Using Implicit Rules: Implicit Rules.), it will be updated if necessary. After all makefiles have been checked, if any have actually been changed, `make' starts with a clean slate and reads all the makefiles over again. (It will also attempt to update each of them over again, but normally this will not change them again, since they are already up to date.) If the makefiles specify a double-colon rule to remake a file with commands but no dependencies, that file will always be remade (*note Double-Colon::.). In the case of makefiles, a makefile that has a double-colon rule with commands but no dependencies will be remade every time `make' is run, and then again after `make' starts over and reads the makefiles in again. This would cause an infinite loop: `make' would constantly remake the makefile, and never do anything else. So, to avoid this, `make' will *not* attempt to remake makefiles which are specified as double-colon targets but have no dependencies. If you do not specify any makefiles to be read with `-f' or `--file' options, `make' will try the default makefile names; *note What Name to Give Your Makefile: Makefile Names.. Unlike makefiles explicitly requested with `-f' or `--file' options, `make' is not certain that these makefiles should exist. However, if a default makefile does not exist but can be created by running `make' rules, you probably want the rules to be run so that the makefile can be used. Therefore, if none of the default makefiles exists, `make' will try to make each of them in the same order in which they are searched for (*note What Name to Give Your Makefile: Makefile Names.) until it succeeds in making one, or it runs out of names to try. Note that it is not an error if `make' cannot find or make any makefile; a makefile is not always necessary. When you use the `-t' or `--touch' option (*note Instead of Executing the Commands: Instead of Execution.), you would not want to use an out-of-date makefile to decide which targets to touch. So the `-t' option has no effect on updating makefiles; they are really updated even if `-t' is specified. Likewise, `-q' (or `--question') and `-n' (or `--just-print') do not prevent updating of makefiles, because an out-of-date makefile would result in the wrong output for other targets. Thus, `make -f mfile -n foo' will update `mfile', read it in, and then print the commands to update `foo' and its dependencies without running them. The commands printed for `foo' will be those specified in the updated contents of `mfile'. However, on occasion you might actually wish to prevent updating of even the makefiles. You can do this by specifying the makefiles as goals in the command line as well as specifying them as makefiles. When the makefile name is specified explicitly as a goal, the options `-t' and so on do apply to them. Thus, `make -f mfile -n mfile foo' would read the makefile `mfile', print the commands needed to update it without actually running them, and then print the commands needed to update `foo' without running them. The commands for `foo' will be those specified by the existing contents of `mfile'.  File: make.info, Node: Overriding Makefiles, Prev: Remaking Makefiles, Up: Makefiles Overriding Part of Another Makefile =================================== Sometimes it is useful to have a makefile that is mostly just like another makefile. You can often use the `include' directive to include one in the other, and add more targets or variable definitions. However, if the two makefiles give different commands for the same target, `make' will not let you just do this. But there is another way. In the containing makefile (the one that wants to include the other), you can use a match-anything pattern rule to say that to remake any target that cannot be made from the information in the containing makefile, `make' should look in another makefile. *Note Pattern Rules::, for more information on pattern rules. For example, if you have a makefile called `Makefile' that says how to make the target `foo' (and other targets), you can write a makefile called `GNUmakefile' that contains: foo: frobnicate > foo %: force @$(MAKE) -f Makefile $@ force: ; If you say `make foo', `make' will find `GNUmakefile', read it, and see that to make `foo', it needs to run the command `frobnicate > foo'. If you say `make bar', `make' will find no way to make `bar' in `GNUmakefile', so it will use the commands from the pattern rule: `make -f Makefile bar'. If `Makefile' provides a rule for updating `bar', `make' will apply the rule. And likewise for any other target that `GNUmakefile' does not say how to make. The way this works is that the pattern rule has a pattern of just `%', so it matches any target whatever. The rule specifies a dependency `force', to guarantee that the commands will be run even if the target file already exists. We give `force' target empty commands to prevent `make' from searching for an implicit rule to build it--otherwise it would apply the same match-anything rule to `force' itself and create a dependency loop!  File: make.info, Node: Rules, Next: Commands, Prev: Makefiles, Up: Top Writing Rules ************* A "rule" appears in the makefile and says when and how to remake certain files, called the rule's "targets" (most often only one per rule). It lists the other files that are the "dependencies" of the target, and "commands" to use to create or update the target. The order of rules is not significant, except for determining the "default goal": the target for `make' to consider, if you do not otherwise specify one. The default goal is the target of the first rule in the first makefile. If the first rule has multiple targets, only the first target is taken as the default. There are two exceptions: a target starting with a period is not a default unless it contains one or more slashes, `/', as well; and, a target that defines a pattern rule has no effect on the default goal. (*Note Defining and Redefining Pattern Rules: Pattern Rules.) Therefore, we usually write the makefile so that the first rule is the one for compiling the entire program or all the programs described by the makefile (often with a target called `all'). *Note Arguments to Specify the Goals: Goals. * Menu: * Rule Example:: An example explained. * Rule Syntax:: General syntax explained. * Wildcards:: Using wildcard characters such as `*'. * Directory Search:: Searching other directories for source files. * Phony Targets:: Using a target that is not a real file's name. * Force Targets:: You can use a target without commands or dependencies to mark other targets as phony. * Empty Targets:: When only the date matters and the files are empty. * Special Targets:: Targets with special built-in meanings. * Multiple Targets:: When to make use of several targets in a rule. * Multiple Rules:: How to use several rules with the same target. * Static Pattern:: Static pattern rules apply to multiple targets and can vary the dependencies according to the target name. * Double-Colon:: How to use a special kind of rule to allow several independent rules for one target. * Automatic Dependencies:: How to automatically generate rules giving dependencies from the source files themselves. usr/info/make.info-2 644 0 0 143667 5573776440 12653 0ustar rootrootThis is Info file make.info, produced by Makeinfo-1.54 from the input file ./make.texinfo.

File: make.info, Node: Rule Example, Next: Rule Syntax, Up: Rules Rule Example ============ Here is an example of a rule: foo.o : foo.c defs.h # module for twiddling the frobs cc -c -g foo.c Its target is `foo.o' and its dependencies are `foo.c' and `defs.h'. It has one command, which is `cc -c -g foo.c'. The command line starts with a tab to identify it as a command. This rule says two things: * How to decide whether `foo.o' is out of date: it is out of date if it does not exist, or if either `foo.c' or `defs.h' is more recent than it. * How to update the file `foo.o': by running `cc' as stated. The command does not explicitly mention `defs.h', but we presume that `foo.c' includes it, and that that is why `defs.h' was added to the dependencies.  File: make.info, Node: Rule Syntax, Next: Wildcards, Prev: Rule Example, Up: Rules Rule Syntax =========== In general, a rule looks like this: TARGETS : DEPENDENCIES COMMAND ... or like this: TARGETS : DEPENDENCIES ; COMMAND COMMAND ... The TARGETS are file names, separated by spaces. Wildcard characters may be used (*note Using Wildcard Characters in File Names: Wildcards.) and a name of the form `A(M)' represents member M in archive file A (*note Archive Members as Targets: Archive Members.). Usually there is only one target per rule, but occasionally there is a reason to have more (*note Multiple Targets in a Rule: Multiple Targets.). The COMMAND lines start with a tab character. The first command may appear on the line after the dependencies, with a tab character, or may appear on the same line, with a semicolon. Either way, the effect is the same. *Note Writing the Commands in Rules: Commands. Because dollar signs are used to start variable references, if you really want a dollar sign in a rule you must write two of them, `$$' (*note How to Use Variables: Using Variables.). You may split a long line by inserting a backslash followed by a newline, but this is not required, as `make' places no limit on the length of a line in a makefile. A rule tells `make' two things: when the targets are out of date, and how to update them when necessary. The criterion for being out of date is specified in terms of the DEPENDENCIES, which consist of file names separated by spaces. (Wildcards and archive members (*note Archives::.) are allowed here too.) A target is out of date if it does not exist or if it is older than any of the dependencies (by comparison of last-modification times). The idea is that the contents of the target file are computed based on information in the dependencies, so if any of the dependencies changes, the contents of the existing target file are no longer necessarily valid. How to update is specified by COMMANDS. These are lines to be executed by the shell (normally `sh'), but with some extra features (*note Writing the Commands in Rules: Commands.).  File: make.info, Node: Wildcards, Next: Directory Search, Prev: Rule Syntax, Up: Rules Using Wildcard Characters in File Names ======================================= A single file name can specify many files using "wildcard characters". The wildcard characters in `make' are `*', `?' and `[...]', the same as in the Bourne shell. For example, `*.c' specifies a list of all the files (in the working directory) whose names end in `.c'. The character `~' at the beginning of a file name also has special significance. If alone, or followed by a slash, it represents your home directory. For example `~/bin' expands to `/home/you/bin'. If the `~' is followed by a word, the string represents the home directory of the user named by that word. For example `~john/bin' expands to `/home/john/bin'. Wildcard expansion happens automatically in targets, in dependencies, and in commands (where the shell does the expansion). In other contexts, wildcard expansion happens only if you request it explicitly with the `wildcard' function. The special significance of a wildcard character can be turned off by preceding it with a backslash. Thus, `foo\*bar' would refer to a specific file whose name consists of `foo', an asterisk, and `bar'. * Menu: * Wildcard Examples:: Several examples * Wildcard Pitfall:: Problems to avoid. * Wildcard Function:: How to cause wildcard expansion where it does not normally take place.  File: make.info, Node: Wildcard Examples, Next: Wildcard Pitfall, Up: Wildcards Wildcard Examples ----------------- Wildcards can be used in the commands of a rule, where they are expanded by the shell. For example, here is a rule to delete all the object files: clean: rm -f *.o Wildcards are also useful in the dependencies of a rule. With the following rule in the makefile, `make print' will print all the `.c' files that have changed since the last time you printed them: print: *.c lpr -p $? touch print This rule uses `print' as an empty target file; see *Note Empty Target Files to Record Events: Empty Targets. (The automatic variable `$?' is used to print only those files that have changed; see *Note Automatic Variables: Automatic.) Wildcard expansion does not happen when you define a variable. Thus, if you write this: objects = *.o then the value of the variable `objects' is the actual string `*.o'. However, if you use the value of `objects' in a target, dependency or command, wildcard expansion will take place at that time. To set `objects' to the expansion, instead use: objects := $(wildcard *.o) *Note Wildcard Function::.  File: make.info, Node: Wildcard Pitfall, Next: Wildcard Function, Prev: Wildcard Examples, Up: Wildcards Pitfalls of Using Wildcards --------------------------- Now here is an example of a naive way of using wildcard expansion, that does not do what you would intend. Suppose you would like to say that the executable file `foo' is made from all the object files in the directory, and you write this: objects = *.o foo : $(objects) cc -o foo $(CFLAGS) $(objects) The value of `objects' is the actual string `*.o'. Wildcard expansion happens in the rule for `foo', so that each *existing* `.o' file becomes a dependency of `foo' and will be recompiled if necessary. But what if you delete all the `.o' files? When a wildcard matches no files, it is left as it is, so then `foo' will depend on the oddly-named file `*.o'. Since no such file is likely to exist, `make' will give you an error saying it cannot figure out how to make `*.o'. This is not what you want! Actually it is possible to obtain the desired result with wildcard expansion, but you need more sophisticated techniques, including the `wildcard' function and string substitution. *Note The Function `wildcard': Wildcard Function.  File: make.info, Node: Wildcard Function, Prev: Wildcard Pitfall, Up: Wildcards The Function `wildcard' ----------------------- Wildcard expansion happens automatically in rules. But wildcard expansion does not normally take place when a variable is set, or inside the arguments of a function. If you want to do wildcard expansion in such places, you need to use the `wildcard' function, like this: $(wildcard PATTERN...) This string, used anywhere in a makefile, is replaced by a space-separated list of names of existing files that match one of the given file name patterns. If no existing file name matches a pattern, then that pattern is omitted from the output of the `wildcard' function. Note that this is different from how unmatched wildcards behave in rules, where they are used verbatim rather than ignored (*note Wildcard Pitfall::.). One use of the `wildcard' function is to get a list of all the C source files in a directory, like this: $(wildcard *.c) We can change the list of C source files into a list of object files by replacing the `.o' suffix with `.c' in the result, like this: $(patsubst %.c,%.o,$(wildcard *.c)) (Here we have used another function, `patsubst'. *Note Functions for String Substitution and Analysis: Text Functions.) Thus, a makefile to compile all C source files in the directory and then link them together could be written as follows: objects := $(patsubst %.c,%.o,$(wildcard *.c)) foo : $(objects) cc -o foo $(objects) (This takes advantage of the implicit rule for compiling C programs, so there is no need to write explicit rules for compiling the files. *Note The Two Flavors of Variables: Flavors, for an explanation of `:=', which is a variant of `='.)  File: make.info, Node: Directory Search, Next: Phony Targets, Prev: Wildcards, Up: Rules Searching Directories for Dependencies ====================================== For large systems, it is often desirable to put sources in a separate directory from the binaries. The "directory search" features of `make' facilitate this by searching several directories automatically to find a dependency. When you redistribute the files among directories, you do not need to change the individual rules, just the search paths. * Menu: * General Search:: Specifying a search path that applies to every dependency. * Selective Search:: Specifying a search path for a specified class of names. * Commands/Search:: How to write shell commands that work together with search paths. * Implicit/Search:: How search paths affect implicit rules. * Libraries/Search:: Directory search for link libraries.  File: make.info, Node: General Search, Next: Selective Search, Up: Directory Search `VPATH': Search Path for All Dependencies ----------------------------------------- The value of the `make' variable `VPATH' specifies a list of directories that `make' should search. Most often, the directories are expected to contain dependency files that are not in the current directory; however, `VPATH' specifies a search list that `make' applies for all files, including files which are targets of rules. Thus, if a file that is listed as a target or dependency does not exist in the current directory, `make' searches the directories listed in `VPATH' for a file with that name. If a file is found in one of them, that file becomes the dependency. Rules may then specify the names of source files in the dependencies as if they all existed in the current directory. *Note Writing Shell Commands with Directory Search: Commands/Search. In the `VPATH' variable, directory names are separated by colons or blanks. The order in which directories are listed is the order followed by `make' in its search. For example, VPATH = src:../headers specifies a path containing two directories, `src' and `../headers', which `make' searches in that order. With this value of `VPATH', the following rule, foo.o : foo.c is interpreted as if it were written like this: foo.o : src/foo.c assuming the file `foo.c' does not exist in the current directory but is found in the directory `src'.  File: make.info, Node: Selective Search, Next: Commands/Search, Prev: General Search, Up: Directory Search The `vpath' Directive --------------------- Similar to the `VPATH' variable but more selective is the `vpath' directive (note lower case), which allows you to specify a search path for a particular class of file names, those that match a particular pattern. Thus you can supply certain search directories for one class of file names and other directories (or none) for other file names. There are three forms of the `vpath' directive: `vpath PATTERN DIRECTORIES' Specify the search path DIRECTORIES for file names that match PATTERN. The search path, DIRECTORIES, is a list of directories to be searched, separated by colons or blanks, just like the search path used in the `VPATH' variable. `vpath PATTERN' Clear out the search path associated with PATTERN. `vpath' Clear all search paths previously specified with `vpath' directives. A `vpath' pattern is a string containing a `%' character. The string must match the file name of a dependency that is being searched for, the `%' character matching any sequence of zero or more characters (as in pattern rules; *note Defining and Redefining Pattern Rules: Pattern Rules.). For example, `%.h' matches files that end in `.h'. (If there is no `%', the pattern must match the dependency exactly, which is not useful very often.) `%' characters in a `vpath' directive's pattern can be quoted with preceding backslashes (`\'). Backslashes that would otherwise quote `%' characters can be quoted with more backslashes. Backslashes that quote `%' characters or other backslashes are removed from the pattern before it is compared to file names. Backslashes that are not in danger of quoting `%' characters go unmolested. When a dependency fails to exist in the current directory, if the PATTERN in a `vpath' directive matches the name of the dependency file, then the DIRECTORIES in that directive are searched just like (and before) the directories in the `VPATH' variable. For example, vpath %.h ../headers tells `make' to look for any dependency whose name ends in `.h' in the directory `../headers' if the file is not found in the current directory. If several `vpath' patterns match the dependency file's name, then `make' processes each matching `vpath' directive one by one, searching all the directories mentioned in each directive. `make' handles multiple `vpath' directives in the order in which they appear in the makefile; multiple directives with the same pattern are independent of each other. Thus, vpath %.c foo vpath % blish vpath %.c bar will look for a file ending in `.c' in `foo', then `blish', then `bar', while vpath %.c foo:bar vpath % blish will look for a file ending in `.c' in `foo', then `bar', then `blish'.  File: make.info, Node: Commands/Search, Next: Implicit/Search, Prev: Selective Search, Up: Directory Search Writing Shell Commands with Directory Search -------------------------------------------- When a dependency is found in another directory through directory search, this cannot change the commands of the rule; they will execute as written. Therefore, you must write the commands with care so that they will look for the dependency in the directory where `make' finds it. This is done with the "automatic variables" such as `$^' (*note Automatic Variables: Automatic.). For instance, the value of `$^' is a list of all the dependencies of the rule, including the names of the directories in which they were found, and the value of `$@' is the target. Thus: foo.o : foo.c cc -c $(CFLAGS) $^ -o $@ (The variable `CFLAGS' exists so you can specify flags for C compilation by implicit rules; we use it here for consistency so it will affect all C compilations uniformly; *note Variables Used by Implicit Rules: Implicit Variables..) Often the dependencies include header files as well, which you do not want to mention in the commands. The automatic variable `$<' is just the first dependency: VPATH = src:../headers foo.o : foo.c defs.h hack.h cc -c $(CFLAGS) $< -o $@  File: make.info, Node: Implicit/Search, Next: Libraries/Search, Prev: Commands/Search, Up: Directory Search Directory Search and Implicit Rules ----------------------------------- The search through the directories specified in `VPATH' or with `vpath' also happens during consideration of implicit rules (*note Using Implicit Rules: Implicit Rules.). For example, when a file `foo.o' has no explicit rule, `make' considers implicit rules, such as the built-in rule to compile `foo.c' if that file exists. If such a file is lacking in the current directory, the appropriate directories are searched for it. If `foo.c' exists (or is mentioned in the makefile) in any of the directories, the implicit rule for C compilation is applied. The commands of implicit rules normally use automatic variables as a matter of necessity; consequently they will use the file names found by directory search with no extra effort.  File: make.info, Node: Libraries/Search, Prev: Implicit/Search, Up: Directory Search Directory Search for Link Libraries ----------------------------------- Directory search applies in a special way to libraries used with the linker. This special feature comes into play when you write a dependency whose name is of the form `-lNAME'. (You can tell something strange is going on here because the dependency is normally the name of a file, and the *file name* of the library looks like `libNAME.a', not like `-lNAME'.) When a dependency's name has the form `-lNAME', `make' handles it specially by searching for the file `libNAME.a' in the current directory, in directories specified by matching `vpath' search paths and the `VPATH' search path, and then in the directories `/lib', `/usr/lib', and `PREFIX/lib' (normally `/usr/local/lib'). For example, foo : foo.c -lcurses cc $^ -o $@ would cause the command `cc foo.c /usr/lib/libcurses.a -o foo' to be executed when `foo' is older than `foo.c' or than `/usr/lib/libcurses.a'.  File: make.info, Node: Phony Targets, Next: Force Targets, Prev: Directory Search, Up: Rules Phony Targets ============= A phony target is one that is not really the name of a file. It is just a name for some commands to be executed when you make an explicit request. There are two reasons to use a phony target: to avoid a conflict with a file of the same name, and to improve performance. If you write a rule whose commands will not create the target file, the commands will be executed every time the target comes up for remaking. Here is an example: clean: rm *.o temp Because the `rm' command does not create a file named `clean', probably no such file will ever exist. Therefore, the `rm' command will be executed every time you say `make clean'. The phony target will cease to work if anything ever does create a file named `clean' in this directory. Since it has no dependencies, the file `clean' would inevitably be considered up to date, and its commands would not be executed. To avoid this problem, you can explicitly declare the target to be phony, using the special target `.PHONY' (*note Special Built-in Target Names: Special Targets.) as follows: .PHONY : clean Once this is done, `make clean' will run the commands regardless of whether there is a file named `clean'. Since it knows that phony targets do not name actual files that could be remade from other files, `make' skips the implicit rule search for phony targets (*note Implicit Rules::.). This is why declaring a target phony is good for performance, even if you are not worried about the actual file existing. Thus, you first write the line that states that `clean' is a phony target, then you write the rule, like this: .PHONY: clean clean: rm *.o temp A phony target should not be a dependency of a real target file; if it is, its commands are run every time `make' goes to update that file. As long as a phony target is never a dependency of a real target, the phony target commands will be executed only when the phony target is a specified goal (*note Arguments to Specify the Goals: Goals.). Phony targets can have dependencies. When one directory contains multiple programs, it is most convenient to describe all of the programs in one makefile `./Makefile'. Since the target remade by default will be the first one in the makefile, it is common to make this a phony target named `all' and give it, as dependencies, all the individual programs. For example: all : prog1 prog2 prog3 .PHONY : all prog1 : prog1.o utils.o cc -o prog1 prog1.o utils.o prog2 : prog2.o cc -o prog2 prog2.o prog3 : prog3.o sort.o utils.o cc -o prog3 prog3.o sort.o utils.o Now you can say just `make' to remake all three programs, or specify as arguments the ones to remake (as in `make prog1 prog3'). When one phony target is a dependency of another, it serves as a subroutine of the other. For example, here `make cleanall' will delete the object files, the difference files, and the file `program': .PHONY: cleanall cleanobj cleandiff cleanall : cleanobj cleandiff rm program cleanobj : rm *.o cleandiff : rm *.diff  File: make.info, Node: Force Targets, Next: Empty Targets, Prev: Phony Targets, Up: Rules Rules without Commands or Dependencies ====================================== If a rule has no dependencies or commands, and the target of the rule is a nonexistent file, then `make' imagines this target to have been updated whenever its rule is run. This implies that all targets depending on this one will always have their commands run. An example will illustrate this: clean: FORCE rm $(objects) FORCE: Here the target `FORCE' satisfies the special conditions, so the target `clean' that depends on it is forced to run its commands. There is nothing special about the name `FORCE', but that is one name commonly used this way. As you can see, using `FORCE' this way has the same results as using `.PHONY: clean'. Using `.PHONY' is more explicit and more efficient. However, other versions of `make' do not support `.PHONY'; thus `FORCE' appears in many makefiles. *Note Phony Targets::.  File: make.info, Node: Empty Targets, Next: Special Targets, Prev: Force Targets, Up: Rules Empty Target Files to Record Events =================================== The "empty target" is a variant of the phony target; it is used to hold commands for an action that you request explicitly from time to time. Unlike a phony target, this target file can really exist; but the file's contents do not matter, and usually are empty. The purpose of the empty target file is to record, with its last-modification time, when the rule's commands were last executed. It does so because one of the commands is a `touch' command to update the target file. The empty target file must have some dependencies. When you ask to remake the empty target, the commands are executed if any dependency is more recent than the target; in other words, if a dependency has changed since the last time you remade the target. Here is an example: print: foo.c bar.c lpr -p $? touch print With this rule, `make print' will execute the `lpr' command if either source file has changed since the last `make print'. The automatic variable `$?' is used to print only those files that have changed (*note Automatic Variables: Automatic.).  File: make.info, Node: Special Targets, Next: Multiple Targets, Prev: Empty Targets, Up: Rules Special Built-in Target Names ============================= Certain names have special meanings if they appear as targets. `.PHONY' The dependencies of the special target `.PHONY' are considered to be phony targets. When it is time to consider such a target, `make' will run its commands unconditionally, regardless of whether a file with that name exists or what its last-modification time is. *Note Phony Targets: Phony Targets. `.SUFFIXES' The dependencies of the special target `.SUFFIXES' are the list of suffixes to be used in checking for suffix rules. *Note Old-Fashioned Suffix Rules: Suffix Rules. `.DEFAULT' The commands specified for `.DEFAULT' are used for any target for which no rules are found (either explicit rules or implicit rules). *Note Last Resort::. If `.DEFAULT' commands are specified, every file mentioned as a dependency, but not as a target in a rule, will have these commands executed on its behalf. *Note Implicit Rule Search Algorithm: Search Algorithm. `.PRECIOUS' The targets which `.PRECIOUS' depends on are given the following special treatment: if `make' is killed or interrupted during the execution of their commands, the target is not deleted. *Note Interrupting or Killing `make': Interrupts. Also, if the target is an intermediate file, it will not be deleted after it is no longer needed, as is normally done. *Note Chains of Implicit Rules: Chained Rules. You can also list the target pattern of an implicit rule (such as `%.o') as a dependency file of the special target `.PRECIOUS' to preserve intermediate files created by rules whose target patterns match that file's name. `.IGNORE' Simply by being mentioned as a target, `.IGNORE' says to ignore errors in execution of commands. The dependencies and commands for `.IGNORE' are not meaningful. `.IGNORE' exists for historical compatibility. Since `.IGNORE' affects every command in the makefile, it is not very useful; we recommend you use the more selective ways to ignore errors in specific commands. *Note Errors in Commands: Errors. `.SILENT' Simply by being mentioned as a target, `.SILENT' says not to print commands before executing them. The dependencies and commands for `.SILENT' are not meaningful. `.SILENT' exists for historical compatibility. We recommend you use the more selective ways to silence specific commands. *Note Command Echoing: Echoing. If you want to silence all commands for a particular run of `make', use the `-s' or `--silent' option (*note Options Summary::.). `.EXPORT_ALL_VARIABLES' Simply by being mentioned as a target, this tells `make' to export all variables to child processes by default. *Note Communicating Variables to a Sub-`make': Variables/Recursion. Any defined implicit rule suffix also counts as a special target if it appears as a target, and so does the concatenation of two suffixes, such as `.c.o'. These targets are suffix rules, an obsolete way of defining implicit rules (but a way still widely used). In principle, any target name could be special in this way if you break it in two and add both pieces to the suffix list. In practice, suffixes normally begin with `.', so these special target names also begin with `.'. *Note Old-Fashioned Suffix Rules: Suffix Rules.  File: make.info, Node: Multiple Targets, Next: Multiple Rules, Prev: Special Targets, Up: Rules Multiple Targets in a Rule ========================== A rule with multiple targets is equivalent to writing many rules, each with one target, and all identical aside from that. The same commands apply to all the targets, but their effects may vary because you can substitute the actual target name into the command using `$@'. The rule contributes the same dependencies to all the targets also. This is useful in two cases. * You want just dependencies, no commands. For example: kbd.o command.o files.o: command.h gives an additional dependency to each of the three object files mentioned. * Similar commands work for all the targets. The commands do not need to be absolutely identical, since the automatic variable `$@' can be used to substitute the particular target to be remade into the commands (*note Automatic Variables: Automatic.). For example: bigoutput littleoutput : text.g generate text.g -$(subst output,,$@) > $@ is equivalent to bigoutput : text.g generate text.g -big > bigoutput littleoutput : text.g generate text.g -little > littleoutput Here we assume the hypothetical program `generate' makes two types of output, one if given `-big' and one if given `-little'. *Note Functions for String Substitution and Analysis: Text Functions, for an explanation of the `subst' function. Suppose you would like to vary the dependencies according to the target, much as the variable `$@' allows you to vary the commands. You cannot do this with multiple targets in an ordinary rule, but you can do it with a "static pattern rule". *Note Static Pattern Rules: Static Pattern.  File: make.info, Node: Multiple Rules, Next: Static Pattern, Prev: Multiple Targets, Up: Rules Multiple Rules for One Target ============================= One file can be the target of several rules. All the dependencies mentioned in all the rules are merged into one list of dependencies for the target. If the target is older than any dependency from any rule, the commands are executed. There can only be one set of commands to be executed for a file. If more than one rule gives commands for the same file, `make' uses the last set given and prints an error message. (As a special case, if the file's name begins with a dot, no error message is printed. This odd behavior is only for compatibility with other implementations of `make'.) There is no reason to write your makefiles this way; that is why `make' gives you an error message. An extra rule with just dependencies can be used to give a few extra dependencies to many files at once. For example, one usually has a variable named `objects' containing a list of all the compiler output files in the system being made. An easy way to say that all of them must be recompiled if `config.h' changes is to write the following: objects = foo.o bar.o foo.o : defs.h bar.o : defs.h test.h $(objects) : config.h This could be inserted or taken out without changing the rules that really specify how to make the object files, making it a convenient form to use if you wish to add the additional dependency intermittently. Another wrinkle is that the additional dependencies could be specified with a variable that you set with a command argument to `make' (*note Overriding Variables: Overriding.). For example, extradeps= $(objects) : $(extradeps) means that the command `make extradeps=foo.h' will consider `foo.h' as a dependency of each object file, but plain `make' will not. If none of the explicit rules for a target has commands, then `make' searches for an applicable implicit rule to find some commands *note Using Implicit Rules: Implicit Rules.).  File: make.info, Node: Static Pattern, Next: Double-Colon, Prev: Multiple Rules, Up: Rules Static Pattern Rules ==================== "Static pattern rules" are rules which specify multiple targets and construct the dependency names for each target based on the target name. They are more general than ordinary rules with multiple targets because the targets do not have to have identical dependencies. Their dependencies must be *analogous*, but not necessarily *identical*. * Menu: * Static Usage:: The syntax of static pattern rules. * Static versus Implicit:: When are they better than implicit rules?  File: make.info, Node: Static Usage, Next: Static versus Implicit, Up: Static Pattern Syntax of Static Pattern Rules ------------------------------ Here is the syntax of a static pattern rule: TARGETS ...: TARGET-PATTERN: DEP-PATTERNS ... COMMANDS ... The TARGETS list specifies the targets that the rule applies to. The targets can contain wildcard characters, just like the targets of ordinary rules (*note Using Wildcard Characters in File Names: Wildcards.). The TARGET-PATTERN and DEP-PATTERNS say how to compute the dependencies of each target. Each target is matched against the TARGET-PATTERN to extract a part of the target name, called the "stem". This stem is substituted into each of the DEP-PATTERNS to make the dependency names (one from each DEP-PATTERN). Each pattern normally contains the character `%' just once. When the TARGET-PATTERN matches a target, the `%' can match any part of the target name; this part is called the "stem". The rest of the pattern must match exactly. For example, the target `foo.o' matches the pattern `%.o', with `foo' as the stem. The targets `foo.c' and `foo.out' do not match that pattern. The dependency names for each target are made by substituting the stem for the `%' in each dependency pattern. For example, if one dependency pattern is `%.c', then substitution of the stem `foo' gives the dependency name `foo.c'. It is legitimate to write a dependency pattern that does not contain `%'; then this dependency is the same for all targets. `%' characters in pattern rules can be quoted with preceding backslashes (`\'). Backslashes that would otherwise quote `%' characters can be quoted with more backslashes. Backslashes that quote `%' characters or other backslashes are removed from the pattern before it is compared to file names or has a stem substituted into it. Backslashes that are not in danger of quoting `%' characters go unmolested. For example, the pattern `the\%weird\\%pattern\\' has `the%weird\' preceding the operative `%' character, and `pattern\\' following it. The final two backslashes are left alone because they cannot affect any `%' character. Here is an example, which compiles each of `foo.o' and `bar.o' from the corresponding `.c' file: objects = foo.o bar.o $(objects): %.o: %.c $(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $< -o $@ Here `$<' is the automatic variable that holds the name of the dependency and `$@' is the automatic variable that holds the name of the target; see *Note Automatic Variables: Automatic. Each target specified must match the target pattern; a warning is issued for each target that does not. If you have a list of files, only some of which will match the pattern, you can use the `filter' function to remove nonmatching file names (*note Functions for String Substitution and Analysis: Text Functions.): files = foo.elc bar.o lose.o $(filter %.o,$(files)): %.o: %.c $(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $< -o $@ $(filter %.elc,$(files)): %.elc: %.el emacs -f batch-byte-compile $< In this example the result of `$(filter %.o,$(files))' is `bar.o lose.o', and the first static pattern rule causes each of these object files to be updated by compiling the corresponding C source file. The result of `$(filter %.elc,$(files))' is `foo.elc', so that file is made from `foo.el'. Another example shows how to use `$*' in static pattern rules: bigoutput littleoutput : %output : text.g generate text.g -$* > $@ When the `generate' command is run, `$*' will expand to the stem, either `big' or `little'.  File: make.info, Node: Static versus Implicit, Prev: Static Usage, Up: Static Pattern Static Pattern Rules versus Implicit Rules ------------------------------------------ A static pattern rule has much in common with an implicit rule defined as a pattern rule (*note Defining and Redefining Pattern Rules: Pattern Rules.). Both have a pattern for the target and patterns for constructing the names of dependencies. The difference is in how `make' decides *when* the rule applies. An implicit rule *can* apply to any target that matches its pattern, but it *does* apply only when the target has no commands otherwise specified, and only when the dependencies can be found. If more than one implicit rule appears applicable, only one applies; the choice depends on the order of rules. By contrast, a static pattern rule applies to the precise list of targets that you specify in the rule. It cannot apply to any other target and it invariably does apply to each of the targets specified. If two conflicting rules apply, and both have commands, that's an error. The static pattern rule can be better than an implicit rule for these reasons: * You may wish to override the usual implicit rule for a few files whose names cannot be categorized syntactically but can be given in an explicit list. * If you cannot be sure of the precise contents of the directories you are using, you may not be sure which other irrelevant files might lead `make' to use the wrong implicit rule. The choice might depend on the order in which the implicit rule search is done. With static pattern rules, there is no uncertainty: each rule applies to precisely the targets specified.  File: make.info, Node: Double-Colon, Next: Automatic Dependencies, Prev: Static Pattern, Up: Rules Double-Colon Rules ================== "Double-colon" rules are rules written with `::' instead of `:' after the target names. They are handled differently from ordinary rules when the same target appears in more than one rule. When a target appears in multiple rules, all the rules must be the same type: all ordinary, or all double-colon. If they are double-colon, each of them is independent of the others. Each double-colon rule's commands are executed if the target is older than any dependencies of that rule. This can result in executing none, any, or all of the double-colon rules. Double-colon rules with the same target are in fact completely separate from one another. Each double-colon rule is processed individually, just as rules with different targets are processed. The double-colon rules for a target are executed in the order they appear in the makefile. However, the cases where double-colon rules really make sense are those where the order of executing the commands would not matter. Double-colon rules are somewhat obscure and not often very useful; they provide a mechanism for cases in which the method used to update a target differs depending on which dependency files caused the update, and such cases are rare. Each double-colon rule should specify commands; if it does not, an implicit rule will be used if one applies. *Note Using Implicit Rules: Implicit Rules.  File: make.info, Node: Automatic Dependencies, Prev: Double-Colon, Up: Rules Generating Dependencies Automatically ===================================== In the makefile for a program, many of the rules you need to write often say only that some object file depends on some header file. For example, if `main.c' uses `defs.h' via an `#include', you would write: main.o: defs.h You need this rule so that `make' knows that it must remake `main.o' whenever `defs.h' changes. You can see that for a large program you would have to write dozens of such rules in your makefile. And, you must always be very careful to update the makefile every time you add or remove an `#include'. To avoid this hassle, most modern C compilers can write these rules for you, by looking at the `#include' lines in the source files. Usually this is done with the `-M' option to the compiler. For example, the command: cc -M main.c generates the output: main.o : main.c defs.h Thus you no longer have to write all those rules yourself. The compiler will do it for you. Note that such a dependency constitutes mentioning `main.o' in a makefile, so it can never be considered an intermediate file by implicit rule search. This means that `make' won't ever remove the file after using it; *note Chains of Implicit Rules: Chained Rules.. With old `make' programs, it was traditional practice to use this compiler feature to generate dependencies on demand with a command like `make depend'. That command would create a file `depend' containing all the automatically-generated dependencies; then the makefile could use `include' to read them in (*note Include::.). In GNU `make', the feature of remaking makefiles makes this practice obsolete--you need never tell `make' explicitly to regenerate the dependencies, because it always regenerates any makefile that is out of date. *Note Remaking Makefiles::. The practice we recommend for automatic dependency generation is to have one makefile corresponding to each source file. For each source file `NAME.c' there is a makefile `NAME.d' which lists what files the object file `NAME.o' depends on. That way only the source files that have changed need to be rescanned to produce the new dependencies. Here is the pattern rule to generate a file of dependencies (i.e., a makefile) called `NAME.d' from a C source file called `NAME.c': %.d: %.c $(SHELL) -ec '$(CC) -M $(CPPFLAGS) $< | sed '\''s/$*.o/& $@/g'\'' > $@' *Note Pattern Rules::, for information on defining pattern rules. The `-e' flag to the shell makes it exit immediately if the `$(CC)' command fails (exits with a nonzero status). Normally the shell exits with the status of the last command in the pipeline (`sed' in this case), so `make' would not notice a nonzero status from the compiler. The purpose of the `sed' command is to translate (for example): main.o : main.c defs.h into: main.o main.d : main.c defs.h This makes each `.d' file depend on all the source and header files that the corresponding `.o' file depends on. `make' then knows it must regenerate the dependencies whenever any of the source or header files changes. Once you've defined the rule to remake the `.d' files, you then use the `include' directive to read them all in. *Note Include::. For example: sources = foo.c bar.c include $(sources:.c=.d) (This example uses a substitution variable reference to translate the list of source files `foo.c bar.c' into a list of dependency makefiles, `foo.d bar.d'. *Note Substitution Refs::, for full information on substitution references.) Since the `.d' files are makefiles like any others, `make' will remake them as necessary with no further work from you. *Note Remaking Makefiles::.  File: make.info, Node: Commands, Next: Using Variables, Prev: Rules, Up: Top Writing the Commands in Rules ***************************** The commands of a rule consist of shell command lines to be executed one by one. Each command line must start with a tab, except that the first command line may be attached to the target-and-dependencies line with a semicolon in between. Blank lines and lines of just comments may appear among the command lines; they are ignored. Users use many different shell programs, but commands in makefiles are always interpreted by `/bin/sh' unless the makefile specifies otherwise. *Note Command Execution: Execution. The shell that is in use determines whether comments can be written on command lines, and what syntax they use. When the shell is `/bin/sh', a `#' starts a comment that extends to the end of the line. The `#' does not have to be at the beginning of a line. Text on a line before a `#' is not part of the comment. * Menu: * Echoing:: How to control when commands are echoed. * Execution:: How commands are executed. * Parallel:: How commands can be executed in parallel. * Errors:: What happens after a command execution error. * Interrupts:: What happens when a command is interrupted. * Recursion:: Invoking `make' from makefiles. * Sequences:: Defining canned sequences of commands. * Empty Commands:: Defining useful, do-nothing commands.  File: make.info, Node: Echoing, Next: Execution, Up: Commands Command Echoing =============== Normally `make' prints each command line before it is executed. We call this "echoing" because it gives the appearance that you are typing the commands yourself. When a line starts with `@', the echoing of that line is suppressed. The `@' is discarded before the command is passed to the shell. Typically you would use this for a command whose only effect is to print something, such as an `echo' command to indicate progress through the makefile: @echo About to make distribution files When `make' is given the flag `-n' or `--just-print', echoing is all that happens, no execution. *Note Summary of Options: Options Summary. In this case and only this case, even the commands starting with `@' are printed. This flag is useful for finding out which commands `make' thinks are necessary without actually doing them. The `-s' or `--silent' flag to `make' prevents all echoing, as if all commands started with `@'. A rule in the makefile for the special target `.SILENT' has the same effect (*note Special Built-in Target Names: Special Targets.). `.SILENT' is essentially obsolete since `@' is more flexible.  File: make.info, Node: Execution, Next: Parallel, Prev: Echoing, Up: Commands Command Execution ================= When it is time to execute commands to update a target, they are executed by making a new subshell for each line. (In practice, `make' may take shortcuts that do not affect the results.) *Please note:* this implies that shell commands such as `cd' that set variables local to each process will not affect the following command lines. If you want to use `cd' to affect the next command, put the two on a single line with a semicolon between them. Then `make' will consider them a single command and pass them, together, to a shell which will execute them in sequence. For example: foo : bar/lose cd bar; gobble lose > ../foo If you would like to split a single shell command into multiple lines of text, you must use a backslash at the end of all but the last subline. Such a sequence of lines is combined into a single line, by deleting the backslash-newline sequences, before passing it to the shell. Thus, the following is equivalent to the preceding example: foo : bar/lose cd bar; \ gobble lose > ../foo The program used as the shell is taken from the variable `SHELL'. By default, the program `/bin/sh' is used. Unlike most variables, the variable `SHELL' is never set from the environment. This is because the `SHELL' environment variable is used to specify your personal choice of shell program for interactive use. It would be very bad for personal choices like this to affect the functioning of makefiles. *Note Variables from the Environment: Environment.  File: make.info, Node: Parallel, Next: Errors, Prev: Execution, Up: Commands Parallel Execution ================== GNU `make' knows how to execute several commands at once. Normally, `make' will execute only one command at a time, waiting for it to finish before executing the next. However, the `-j' or `--jobs' option tells `make' to execute many commands simultaneously. If the `-j' option is followed by an integer, this is the number of commands to execute at once; this is called the number of "job slots". If there is nothing looking like an integer after the `-j' option, there is no limit on the number of job slots. The default number of job slots is one, which means serial execution (one thing at a time). One unpleasant consequence of running several commands simultaneously is that output from all of the commands comes when the commands send it, so messages from different commands may be interspersed. Another problem is that two processes cannot both take input from the same device; so to make sure that only one command tries to take input from the terminal at once, `make' will invalidate the standard input streams of all but one running command. This means that attempting to read from standard input will usually be a fatal error (a `Broken pipe' signal) for most child processes if there are several. It is unpredictable which command will have a valid standard input stream (which will come from the terminal, or wherever you redirect the standard input of `make'). The first command run will always get it first, and the first command started after that one finishes will get it next, and so on. We will change how this aspect of `make' works if we find a better alternative. In the mean time, you should not rely on any command using standard input at all if you are using the parallel execution feature; but if you are not using this feature, then standard input works normally in all commands. If a command fails (is killed by a signal or exits with a nonzero status), and errors are not ignored for that command (*note Errors in Commands: Errors.), the remaining command lines to remake the same target will not be run. If a command fails and the `-k' or `--keep-going' option was not given (*note Summary of Options: Options Summary.), `make' aborts execution. If make terminates for any reason (including a signal) with child processes running, it waits for them to finish before actually exiting. When the system is heavily loaded, you will probably want to run fewer jobs than when it is lightly loaded. You can use the `-l' option to tell `make' to limit the number of jobs to run at once, based on the load average. The `-l' or `--max-load' option is followed by a floating-point number. For example, -l 2.5 will not let `make' start more than one job if the load average is above 2.5. The `-l' option with no following number removes the load limit, if one was given with a previous `-l' option. More precisely, when `make' goes to start up a job, and it already has at least one job running, it checks the current load average; if it is not lower than the limit given with `-l', `make' waits until the load average goes below that limit, or until all the other jobs finish. By default, there is no load limit. usr/info/make.info-3 644 0 0 141271 5573776441 12642 0ustar rootrootThis is Info file make.info, produced by Makeinfo-1.54 from the input file ./make.texinfo.

File: make.info, Node: Errors, Next: Interrupts, Prev: Parallel, Up: Commands Errors in Commands ================== After each shell command returns, `make' looks at its exit status. If the command completed successfully, the next command line is executed in a new shell; after the last command line is finished, the rule is finished. If there is an error (the exit status is nonzero), `make' gives up on the current rule, and perhaps on all rules. Sometimes the failure of a certain command does not indicate a problem. For example, you may use the `mkdir' command to ensure that a directory exists. If the directory already exists, `mkdir' will report an error, but you probably want `make' to continue regardless. To ignore errors in a command line, write a `-' at the beginning of the line's text (after the initial tab). The `-' is discarded before the command is passed to the shell for execution. For example, clean: -rm -f *.o This causes `rm' to continue even if it is unable to remove a file. When you run `make' with the `-i' or `--ignore-errors' flag, errors are ignored in all commands of all rules. A rule in the makefile for the special target `.IGNORE' has the same effect. These ways of ignoring errors are obsolete because `-' is more flexible. When errors are to be ignored, because of either a `-' or the `-i' flag, `make' treats an error return just like success, except that it prints out a message that tells you the status code the command exited with, and says that the error has been ignored. When an error happens that `make' has not been told to ignore, it implies that the current target cannot be correctly remade, and neither can any other that depends on it either directly or indirectly. No further commands will be executed for these targets, since their preconditions have not been achieved. Normally `make' gives up immediately in this circumstance, returning a nonzero status. However, if the `-k' or `--keep-going' flag is specified, `make' continues to consider the other dependencies of the pending targets, remaking them if necessary, before it gives up and returns nonzero status. For example, after an error in compiling one object file, `make -k' will continue compiling other object files even though it already knows that linking them will be impossible. *Note Summary of Options: Options Summary. The usual behavior assumes that your purpose is to get the specified targets up to date; once `make' learns that this is impossible, it might as well report the failure immediately. The `-k' option says that the real purpose is to test as many of the changes made in the program as possible, perhaps to find several independent problems so that you can correct them all before the next attempt to compile. This is why Emacs' `compile' command passes the `-k' flag by default.  File: make.info, Node: Interrupts, Next: Recursion, Prev: Errors, Up: Commands Interrupting or Killing `make' ============================== If `make' gets a fatal signal while a command is executing, it may delete the target file that the command was supposed to update. This is done if the target file's last-modification time has changed since `make' first checked it. The purpose of deleting the target is to make sure that it is remade from scratch when `make' is next run. Why is this? Suppose you type `Ctrl-c' while a compiler is running, and it has begun to write an object file `foo.o'. The `Ctrl-c' kills the compiler, resulting in an incomplete file whose last-modification time is newer than the source file `foo.c'. But `make' also receives the `Ctrl-c' signal and deletes this incomplete file. If `make' did not do this, the next invocation of `make' would think that `foo.o' did not require updating--resulting in a strange error message from the linker when it tries to link an object file half of which is missing. You can prevent the deletion of a target file in this way by making the special target `.PRECIOUS' depend on it. Before remaking a target, `make' checks to see whether it appears on the dependencies of `.PRECIOUS', and thereby decides whether the target should be deleted if a signal happens. Some reasons why you might do this are that the target is updated in some atomic fashion, or exists only to record a modification-time (its contents do not matter), or must exist at all times to prevent other sorts of trouble.  File: make.info, Node: Recursion, Next: Sequences, Prev: Interrupts, Up: Commands Recursive Use of `make' ======================= Recursive use of `make' means using `make' as a command in a makefile. This technique is useful when you want separate makefiles for various subsystems that compose a larger system. For example, suppose you have a subdirectory `subdir' which has its own makefile, and you would like the containing directory's makefile to run `make' on the subdirectory. You can do it by writing this: subsystem: cd subdir; $(MAKE) or, equivalently, this (*note Summary of Options: Options Summary.): subsystem: $(MAKE) -C subdir You can write recursive `make' commands just by copying this example, but there are many things to know about how they work and why, and about how the sub-`make' relates to the top-level `make'. * Menu: * MAKE Variable:: The special effects of using `$(MAKE)'. * Variables/Recursion:: How to communicate variables to a sub-`make'. * Options/Recursion:: How to communicate options to a sub-`make'. * -w Option:: How the `-w' or `--print-directory' option helps debug use of recursive `make' commands.  File: make.info, Node: MAKE Variable, Next: Variables/Recursion, Up: Recursion How the `MAKE' Variable Works ----------------------------- Recursive `make' commands should always use the variable `MAKE', not the explicit command name `make', as shown here: subsystem: cd subdir; $(MAKE) The value of this variable is the file name with which `make' was invoked. If this file name was `/bin/make', then the command executed is `cd subdir; /bin/make'. If you use a special version of `make' to run the top-level makefile, the same special version will be executed for recursive invocations. Also, any arguments that define variable values are added to `MAKE', so the sub-`make' gets them too. Thus, if you do `make CFLAGS=-O', so that all C compilations will be optimized, the sub-`make' is run with `cd subdir; /bin/make CFLAGS=-O'. The `MAKE' variable actually just refers to two other variables which contain these special values. In fact, `MAKE' is always defined as `$(MAKE_COMMAND) $(MAKEOVERRIDES)'. The variable `MAKE_COMMAND' is the file name with which `make' was invoked (such as `/bin/make', above). The variable `MAKEOVERRIDES' contains definitions for the variables defined on the command line; in the above example, its value is `CFLAGS=-O'. If you *do not* want these variable definitions done in all recursive `make' invocations, you can redefine the `MAKEOVERRIDES' variable to remove them. You do this in any of the normal ways for defining variables: in a makefile (*note Setting Variables: Setting.); on the command line with an argument like `MAKEOVERRIDES=' (*note Overriding Variables: Overriding.); or with an environment variable (*note Variables from the Environment: Environment.). As a special feature, using the variable `MAKE' in the commands of a rule alters the effects of the `-t' (`--touch'), `-n' (`--just-print'), or `-q' (`--question') option. Using the `MAKE' variable has the same effect as using a `+' character at the beginning of the command line. *Note Instead of Executing the Commands: Instead of Execution. Consider the command `make -t' in the above example. (The `-t' option marks targets as up to date without actually running any commands; see *Note Instead of Execution::.) Following the usual definition of `-t', a `make -t' command in the example would create a file named `subsystem' and do nothing else. What you really want it to do is run `cd subdir; make -t'; but that would require executing the command, and `-t' says not to execute commands. The special feature makes this do what you want: whenever a command line of a rule contains the variable `MAKE', the flags `-t', `-n' and `-q' do not apply to that line. Command lines containing `MAKE' are executed normally despite the presence of a flag that causes most commands not to be run. The usual `MAKEFLAGS' mechanism passes the flags to the sub-`make' (*note Communicating Options to a Sub-`make': Options/Recursion.), so your request to touch the files, or print the commands, is propagated to the subsystem.  File: make.info, Node: Variables/Recursion, Next: Options/Recursion, Prev: MAKE Variable, Up: Recursion Communicating Variables to a Sub-`make' --------------------------------------- Variable values of the top-level `make' can be passed to the sub-`make' through the environment by explicit request. These variables are defined in the sub-`make' as defaults, but do not override what is specified in the sub-`make''s makefile unless you use the `-e' switch (*note Summary of Options: Options Summary.). To pass down, or "export", a variable, `make' adds the variable and its value to the environment for running each command. The sub-`make', in turn, uses the environment to initialize its table of variable values. *Note Variables from the Environment: Environment. Except by explicit request, `make' exports a variable only if it is either defined in the environment initially or set on the command line, and if its name consists only of letters, numbers, and underscores. Some shells cannot cope with environment variable names consisting of characters other than letters, numbers, and underscores. The special variables `SHELL' and `MAKEFLAGS' are always exported (unless you unexport them). `MAKEFILES' is exported if you set it to anything. Variables are *not* normally passed down if they were created by default by `make' (*note Variables Used by Implicit Rules: Implicit Variables.). The sub-`make' will define these for itself. If you want to export specific variables to a sub-`make', use the `export' directive, like this: export VARIABLE ... If you want to *prevent* a variable from being exported, use the `unexport' directive, like this: unexport VARIABLE ... As a convenience, you can define a variable and export it at the same time by doing: export VARIABLE = value has the same result as: VARIABLE = value export VARIABLE and export VARIABLE := value has the same result as: VARIABLE := value export VARIABLE Likewise, export VARIABLE += value is just like: VARIABLE += value export VARIABLE *Note Appending More Text to Variables: Appending. You may notice that the `export' and `unexport' directives work in `make' in the same way they work in the shell, `sh'. If you want all variables to be exported by default, you can use `export' by itself: export This tells `make' that variables which are not explicitly mentioned in an `export' or `unexport' directive should be exported. Any variable given in an `unexport' directive will still *not* be exported. If you use `export' by itself to export variables by default, variables whose names contain characters other than alphanumerics and underscores will not be exported unless specifically mentioned in an `export' directive. The behavior elicited by an `export' directive by itself was the default in older versions of GNU `make'. If your makefiles depend on this behavior and you want to be compatible with old versions of `make', you can write a rule for the special target `.EXPORT_ALL_VARIABLES' instead of using the `export' directive. This will be ignored by old `make's, while the `export' directive will cause a syntax error. Likewise, you can use `unexport' by itself to tell `make' *not* to export variables by default. Since this is the default behavior, you would only need to do this if `export' had been used by itself earlier (in an included makefile, perhaps). You *cannot* use `export' and `unexport' by themselves to have variables exported for some commands and not for others. The last `export' or `unexport' directive that appears by itself determines the behavior for the entire run of `make'. As a special feature, the variable `MAKELEVEL' is changed when it is passed down from level to level. This variable's value is a string which is the depth of the level as a decimal number. The value is `0' for the top-level `make'; `1' for a sub-`make', `2' for a sub-sub-`make', and so on. The incrementation happens when `make' sets up the environment for a command. The main use of `MAKELEVEL' is to test it in a conditional directive (*note Conditional Parts of Makefiles: Conditionals.); this way you can write a makefile that behaves one way if run recursively and another way if run directly by you. You can use the variable `MAKEFILES' to cause all sub-`make' commands to use additional makefiles. The value of `MAKEFILES' is a whitespace-separated list of file names. This variable, if defined in the outer-level makefile, is passed down through the environment; then it serves as a list of extra makefiles for the sub-`make' to read before the usual or specified ones. *Note The Variable `MAKEFILES': MAKEFILES Variable.  File: make.info, Node: Options/Recursion, Next: -w Option, Prev: Variables/Recursion, Up: Recursion Communicating Options to a Sub-`make' ------------------------------------- Flags such as `-s' and `-k' are passed automatically to the sub-`make' through the variable `MAKEFLAGS'. This variable is set up automatically by `make' to contain the flag letters that `make' received. Thus, if you do `make -ks' then `MAKEFLAGS' gets the value `ks'. As a consequence, every sub-`make' gets a value for `MAKEFLAGS' in its environment. In response, it takes the flags from that value and processes them as if they had been given as arguments. *Note Summary of Options: Options Summary. The options `-C', `-f', `-I', `-o', and `-W' are not put into `MAKEFLAGS'; these options are not passed down. The `-j' option is a special case (*note Parallel Execution: Parallel.). If you set it to some numeric value, `-j 1' is always put into `MAKEFLAGS' instead of the value you specified. This is because if the `-j' option were passed down to sub-`make's, you would get many more jobs running in parallel than you asked for. If you give `-j' with no numeric argument, meaning to run as many jobs as possible in parallel, this is passed down, since multiple infinities are no more than one. If you do not want to pass the other flags down, you must change the value of `MAKEFLAGS', like this: MAKEFLAGS= subsystem: cd subdir; $(MAKE) or like this: subsystem: cd subdir; $(MAKE) MAKEFLAGS= A similar variable `MFLAGS' exists also, for historical compatibility. It has the same value as `MAKEFLAGS' except that it always begins with a hyphen unless it is empty (`MAKEFLAGS' begins with a hyphen only when it begins with an option that has no single-letter version, such as `--warn-undefined-variables'). `MFLAGS' was traditionally used explicitly in the recursive `make' command, like this: subsystem: cd subdir; $(MAKE) $(MFLAGS) but now `MAKEFLAGS' makes this usage redundant. If you want your makefiles to be compatible with old `make' programs, use this technique; it will work fine with more modern `make' versions too. The `MAKEFLAGS' variable can also be useful if you want to have certain options, such as `-k' (*note Summary of Options: Options Summary.), set each time you run `make'. You simply put a value for `MAKEFLAGS' in your environment. You can also set `MAKEFLAGS' in a makefile, to specify additional flags that should also be in effect for that makefile. (Note that you cannot use `MFLAGS' this way. That variable is set only for compatibility; `make' does not interpret a value you set for it in any way.) When `make' interprets the value of `MAKEFLAGS' (either from the environment or from a makefile), it first prepends a hyphen if the value does not already begin with one. Then it chops the value into words separated by blanks, and parses these words as if they were options given on the command line (except that `-C', `-f', `-h', `-o', `-W', and their long-named versions are ignored; and there is no error for an invalid option). If you do put `MAKEFLAGS' in your environment, you should be sure not to include any options that will drastically affect the actions of `make' and undermine the purpose of makefiles and of `make' itself. For instance, the `-t', `-n', and `-q' options, if put in one of these variables, could have disastrous consequences and would certainly have at least surprising and probably annoying effects.  File: make.info, Node: -w Option, Prev: Options/Recursion, Up: Recursion The `--print-directory' Option ------------------------------ If you use several levels of recursive `make' invocations, the `-w' or `--print-directory' option can make the output a lot easier to understand by showing each directory as `make' starts processing it and as `make' finishes processing it. For example, if `make -w' is run in the directory `/u/gnu/make', `make' will print a line of the form: make: Entering directory `/u/gnu/make'. before doing anything else, and a line of the form: make: Leaving directory `/u/gnu/make'. when processing is completed. Normally, you do not need to specify this option because `make' does it for you: `-w' is turned on automatically when you use the `-C' option, and in sub-`make's. `make' will not automatically turn on `-w' if you also use `-s', which says to be silent, or if you use `--no-print-directory' to explicitly disable it.  File: make.info, Node: Sequences, Next: Empty Commands, Prev: Recursion, Up: Commands Defining Canned Command Sequences ================================= When the same sequence of commands is useful in making various targets, you can define it as a canned sequence with the `define' directive, and refer to the canned sequence from the rules for those targets. The canned sequence is actually a variable, so the name must not conflict with other variable names. Here is an example of defining a canned sequence of commands: define run-yacc yacc $(firstword $^) mv y.tab.c $@ endef Here `run-yacc' is the name of the variable being defined; `endef' marks the end of the definition; the lines in between are the commands. The `define' directive does not expand variable references and function calls in the canned sequence; the `$' characters, parentheses, variable names, and so on, all become part of the value of the variable you are defining. *Note Defining Variables Verbatim: Defining, for a complete explanation of `define'. The first command in this example runs Yacc on the first dependency of whichever rule uses the canned sequence. The output file from Yacc is always named `y.tab.c'. The second command moves the output to the rule's target file name. To use the canned sequence, substitute the variable into the commands of a rule. You can substitute it like any other variable (*note Basics of Variable References: Reference.). Because variables defined by `define' are recursively expanded variables, all the variable references you wrote inside the `define' are expanded now. For example: foo.c : foo.y $(run-yacc) `foo.y' will be substituted for the variable `$^' when it occurs in `run-yacc''s value, and `foo.c' for `$@'. This is a realistic example, but this particular one is not needed in practice because `make' has an implicit rule to figure out these commands based on the file names involved (*note Using Implicit Rules: Implicit Rules.). In command execution, each line of a canned sequence is treated just as if the line appeared on its own in the rule, preceded by a tab. In particular, `make' invokes a separate subshell for each line. You can use the special prefix characters that affect command lines (`@', `-', and `+') on each line of a canned sequence. *Note Writing the Commands in Rules: Commands. For example, using this canned sequence: define frobnicate @echo "frobnicating target $@" frob-step-1 $< -o $@-step-1 frob-step-2 $@-step-1 -o $@ endef `make' will not echo the first line, the `echo' command. But it *will* echo the following two command lines. On the other hand, prefix characters on the command line that refers to a canned sequence apply to every line in the sequence. So the rule: frob.out: frob.in @$(frobnicate) does not echo *any* commands. (*Note Command Echoing: Echoing, for a full explanation of `@'.)  File: make.info, Node: Empty Commands, Prev: Sequences, Up: Commands Using Empty Commands ==================== It is sometimes useful to define commands which do nothing. This is done simply by giving a command that consists of nothing but whitespace. For example: target: ; defines an empty command string for `target'. You could also use a line beginning with a tab character to define an empty command string, but this would be confusing because such a line looks empty. You may be wondering why you would want to define a command string that does nothing. The only reason this is useful is to prevent a target from getting implicit commands (from implicit rules or the `.DEFAULT' special target; *note Implicit Rules::. and *note Defining Last-Resort Default Rules: Last Resort.). You may be inclined to define empty command strings for targets that are not actual files, but only exist so that their dependencies can be remade. However, this is not the best way to do that, because the dependencies may not be remade properly if the target file actually does exist. *Note Phony Targets: Phony Targets, for a better way to do this.  File: make.info, Node: Using Variables, Next: Conditionals, Prev: Commands, Up: Top How to Use Variables ******************** A "variable" is a name defined in a makefile to represent a string of text, called the variable's "value". These values are substituted by explicit request into targets, dependencies, commands, and other parts of the makefile. (In some other versions of `make', variables are called "macros".) Variables and functions in all parts of a makefile are expanded when read, except for the shell commands in rules, the right-hand sides of variable definitions using `=', and the bodies of variable definitions using the `define' directive. Variables can represent lists of file names, options to pass to compilers, programs to run, directories to look in for source files, directories to write output in, or anything else you can imagine. A variable name may be any sequence of characters not containing `:', `#', `=', or leading or trailing whitespace. However, variable names containing characters other than letters, numbers, and underscores should be avoided, as they may be given special meanings in the future, and with some shells they cannot be passed through the environment to a sub-`make' (*note Communicating Variables to a Sub-`make': Variables/Recursion.). Variable names are case-sensitive. The names `foo', `FOO', and `Foo' all refer to different variables. 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 (*note Overriding Variables: Overriding.). A few variables have names that are a single punctuation character or just a few characters. These are the "automatic variables", and they have particular specialized uses. *Note Automatic Variables: Automatic. * Menu: * Reference:: How to use the value of a variable. * Flavors:: Variables come in two flavors. * Advanced:: Advanced features for referencing a variable. * Values:: All the ways variables get their values. * Setting:: How to set a variable in the makefile. * Appending:: How to append more text to the old value of a variable. * Override Directive:: How to set a variable in the makefile even if the user has set it with a command argument. * Defining:: An alternate way to set a variable to a verbatim string. * Environment:: Variable values can come from the environment. * Automatic:: Some special variables have predefined meanings for use with implicit rules.  File: make.info, Node: Reference, Next: Flavors, Up: Using Variables Basics of Variable References ============================= To substitute a variable's value, write a dollar sign followed by the name of the variable in parentheses or braces: either `$(foo)' or `${foo}' is a valid reference to the variable `foo'. This special significance of `$' is why you must write `$$' to have the effect of a single dollar sign in a file name or command. Variable references can be used in any context: targets, dependencies, commands, most directives, and new variable values. Here is an example of a common case, where a variable holds the names of all the object files in a program: objects = program.o foo.o utils.o program : $(objects) cc -o program $(objects) $(objects) : defs.h Variable references work by strict textual substitution. Thus, the rule foo = c prog.o : prog.$(foo) $(foo)$(foo) -$(foo) prog.$(foo) could be used to compile a C program `prog.c'. Since spaces before the variable value are ignored in variable assignments, the value of `foo' is precisely `c'. (Don't actually write your makefiles this way!) A dollar sign followed by a character other than a dollar sign, open-parenthesis or open-brace treats that single character as the variable name. Thus, you could reference the variable `x' with `$x'. However, this practice is strongly discouraged, except in the case of the automatic variables (*note Automatic Variables: Automatic.).  File: make.info, Node: Flavors, Next: Advanced, Prev: Reference, Up: Using Variables The Two Flavors of Variables ============================ There are two ways that a variable in GNU `make' can have a value; we call them the two "flavors" of variables. The two flavors are distinguished in how they are defined and in what they do when expanded. The first flavor of variable is a "recursively expanded" variable. Variables of this sort are defined by lines using `=' (*note Setting Variables: Setting.) or by the `define' directive (*note Defining Variables Verbatim: Defining.). The value you specify is installed verbatim; if it contains references to other variables, these references are expanded whenever this variable is substituted (in the course of expanding some other string). When this happens, it is called "recursive expansion". For example, foo = $(bar) bar = $(ugh) ugh = Huh? all:;echo $(foo) will echo `Huh?': `$(foo)' expands to `$(bar)' which expands to `$(ugh)' which finally expands to `Huh?'. This flavor of variable is the only sort supported by other versions of `make'. It has its advantages and its disadvantages. An advantage (most would say) is that: CFLAGS = $(include_dirs) -O include_dirs = -Ifoo -Ibar will do what was intended: when `CFLAGS' is expanded in a command, it will expand to `-Ifoo -Ibar -O'. A major disadvantage is that you cannot append something on the end of a variable, as in CFLAGS = $(CFLAGS) -O because it will cause an infinite loop in the variable expansion. (Actually `make' detects the infinite loop and reports an error.) Another disadvantage is that any functions (*note Functions for Transforming Text: Functions.) referenced in the definition will be executed every time the variable is expanded. This makes `make' run slower; worse, it causes the `wildcard' and `shell' functions to give unpredictable results because you cannot easily control when they are called, or even how many times. To avoid all the problems and inconveniences of recursively expanded variables, there is another flavor: simply expanded variables. "Simply expanded variables" are defined by lines using `:=' (*note Setting Variables: Setting.). The value of a simply expanded variable is scanned once and for all, expanding any references to other variables and functions, when the variable is defined. The actual value of the simply expanded variable is the result of expanding the text that you write. It does not contain any references to other variables; it contains their values *as of the time this variable was defined*. Therefore, x := foo y := $(x) bar x := later is equivalent to y := foo bar x := later When a simply expanded variable is referenced, its value is substituted verbatim. Here is a somewhat more complicated example, illustrating the use of `:=' in conjunction with the `shell' function. (*Note The `shell' Function: Shell Function.) This example also shows use of the variable `MAKELEVEL', which is changed when it is passed down from level to level. (*Note Communicating Variables to a Sub-`make': Variables/Recursion, for information about `MAKELEVEL'.) ifeq (0,${MAKELEVEL}) cur-dir := $(shell pwd) whoami := $(shell whoami) host-type := $(shell arch) MAKE := ${MAKE} host-type=${host-type} whoami=${whoami} endif An advantage of this use of `:=' is that a typical `descend into a directory' command then looks like this: ${subdirs}: ${MAKE} cur-dir=${cur-dir}/$@ -C $@ all Simply expanded variables generally make complicated makefile programming more predictable because they work like variables in most programming languages. They allow you to redefine a variable using its own value (or its value processed in some way by one of the expansion functions) and to use the expansion functions much more efficiently (*note Functions for Transforming Text: Functions.). You can also use them to introduce controlled leading whitespace into variable values. Leading whitespace characters are discarded from your input before substitution of variable references and function calls; this means you can include leading spaces in a variable value by protecting them with variable references, like this: nullstring := space := $(nullstring) # end of the line Here the value of the variable `space' is precisely one space. The comment `# end of the line' is included here just for clarity. Since trailing space characters are *not* stripped from variable values, just a space at the end of the line would have the same effect (but be rather hard to read). If you put whitespace at the end of a variable value, it is a good idea to put a comment like that at the end of the line to make your intent clear. Conversely, if you do *not* want any whitespace characters at the end of your variable value, you must remember not to put a random comment on the end of the line after some whitespace, such as this: dir := /foo/bar # directory to put the frobs in Here the value of the variable `dir' is `/foo/bar ' (with four trailing spaces), which was probably not the intention. (Imagine something like `$(dir)/file' with this definition!)  File: make.info, Node: Advanced, Next: Values, Prev: Flavors, Up: Using Variables Advanced Features for Reference to Variables ============================================ This section describes some advanced features you can use to reference variables in more flexible ways. * Menu: * Substitution Refs:: Referencing a variable with substitutions on the value. * Computed Names:: Computing the name of the variable to refer to.  File: make.info, Node: Substitution Refs, Next: Computed Names, Up: Advanced Substitution References ----------------------- A "substitution reference" substitutes the value of a variable with alterations that you specify. It has the form `$(VAR:A=B)' (or `${VAR:A=B}') and its meaning is to take the value of the variable VAR, replace every A at the end of a word with B in that value, and substitute the resulting string. When we say "at the end of a word", we mean that A must appear either followed by whitespace or at the end of the value in order to be replaced; other occurrences of A in the value are unaltered. For example: foo := a.o b.o c.o bar := $(foo:.o=.c) sets `bar' to `a.c b.c c.c'. *Note Setting Variables: Setting. A substitution reference is actually an abbreviation for use of the `patsubst' expansion function (*note Functions for String Substitution and Analysis: Text Functions.). We provide substitution references as well as `patsubst' for compatibility with other implementations of `make'. Another type of substitution reference lets you use the full power of the `patsubst' function. It has the same form `$(VAR:A=B)' described above, except that now A must contain a single `%' character. This case is equivalent to `$(patsubst A,B,$(VAR))'. *Note Functions for String Substitution and Analysis: Text Functions, for a description of the `patsubst' function. For example: foo := a.o b.o c.o bar := $(foo:%.o=%.c) sets `bar' to `a.c b.c c.c'.  File: make.info, Node: Computed Names, Prev: Substitution Refs, Up: Advanced Computed Variable Names ----------------------- Computed variable names are a complicated concept needed only for sophisticated makefile programming. For most purposes you need not consider them, except to know that making a variable with a dollar sign in its name might have strange results. However, if you are the type that wants to understand everything, or you are actually interested in what they do, read on. Variables may be referenced inside the name of a variable. This is called a "computed variable name" or a "nested variable reference". For example, x = y y = z a := $($(x)) defines `a' as `z': the `$(x)' inside `$($(x))' expands to `y', so `$($(x))' expands to `$(y)' which in turn expands to `z'. Here the name of the variable to reference is not stated explicitly; it is computed by expansion of `$(x)'. The reference `$(x)' here is nested within the outer variable reference. The previous example shows two levels of nesting, but any number of levels is possible. For example, here are three levels: x = y y = z z = u a := $($($(x))) Here the innermost `$(x)' expands to `y', so `$($(x))' expands to `$(y)' which in turn expands to `z'; now we have `$(z)', which becomes `u'. References to recursively-expanded variables within a variable name are reexpanded in the usual fashion. For example: x = $(y) y = z z = Hello a := $($(x)) defines `a' as `Hello': `$($(x))' becomes `$($(y))' which becomes `$(z)' which becomes `Hello'. Nested variable references can also contain modified references and function invocations (*note Functions for Transforming Text: Functions.), just like any other reference. For example, using the `subst' function (*note Functions for String Substitution and Analysis: Text Functions.): x = variable1 variable2 := Hello y = $(subst 1,2,$(x)) z = y a := $($($(z))) eventually defines `a' as `Hello'. It is doubtful that anyone would ever want to write a nested reference as convoluted as this one, but it works: `$($($(z)))' expands to `$($(y))' which becomes `$($(subst 1,2,$(x)))'. This gets the value `variable1' from `x' and changes it by substitution to `variable2', so that the entire string becomes `$(variable2)', a simple variable reference whose value is `Hello'. A computed variable name need not consist entirely of a single variable reference. It can contain several variable references, as well as some invariant text. For example, a_dirs := dira dirb 1_dirs := dir1 dir2 a_files := filea fileb 1_files := file1 file2 ifeq "$(use_a)" "yes" a1 := a else a1 := 1 endif ifeq "$(use_dirs)" "yes" df := dirs else df := files endif dirs := $($(a1)_$(df)) will give `dirs' the same value as `a_dirs', `1_dirs', `a_files' or `1_files' depending on the settings of `use_a' and `use_dirs'. Computed variable names can also be used in substitution references: a_objects := a.o b.o c.o 1_objects := 1.o 2.o 3.o sources := $($(a1)_objects:.o=.c) defines `sources' as either `a.c b.c c.c' or `1.c 2.c 3.c', depending on the value of `a1'. The only restriction on this sort of use of nested variable references is that they cannot specify part of the name of a function to be called. This is because the test for a recognized function name is done before the expansion of nested references. For example, ifdef do_sort func := sort else func := strip endif bar := a d b g q c foo := $($(func) $(bar)) attempts to give `foo' the value of the variable `sort a d b g q c' or `strip a d b g q c', rather than giving `a d b g q c' as the argument to either the `sort' or the `strip' function. This restriction could be removed in the future if that change is shown to be a good idea. You can also use computed variable names in the left-hand side of a variable assignment, or in a `define' directive, as in: dir = foo $(dir)_sources := $(wildcard $(dir)/*.c) define $(dir)_print lpr $($(dir)_sources) endef This example defines the variables `dir', `foo_sources', and `foo_print'. Note that "nested variable references" are quite different from "recursively expanded variables" (*note The Two Flavors of Variables: Flavors.), though both are used together in complex ways when doing makefile programming.  File: make.info, Node: Values, Next: Setting, Prev: Advanced, Up: Using Variables How Variables Get Their Values ============================== Variables can get values in several different ways: * You can specify an overriding value when you run `make'. *Note Overriding Variables: Overriding. * You can specify a value in the makefile, either with an assignment (*note Setting Variables: Setting.) or with a verbatim definition (*note Defining Variables Verbatim: Defining.). * Variables in the environment become `make' variables. *Note Variables from the Environment: Environment. * Several "automatic" variables are given new values for each rule. Each of these has a single conventional use. *Note Automatic Variables: Automatic. * Several variables have constant initial values. *Note Variables Used by Implicit Rules: Implicit Variables.  File: make.info, Node: Setting, Next: Appending, Prev: Values, Up: Using Variables Setting Variables ================= To set a variable from the makefile, write a line starting with the variable name followed by `=' or `:='. Whatever follows the `=' or `:=' on the line becomes the value. For example, objects = main.o foo.o bar.o utils.o defines a variable named `objects'. Whitespace around the variable name and immediately after the `=' is ignored. Variables defined with `=' are "recursively expanded" variables. Variables defined with `:=' are "simply expanded" variables; these definitions can contain variable references which will be expanded before the definition is made. *Note The Two Flavors of Variables: Flavors. The variable name may contain function and variable references, which are expanded when the line is read to find the actual variable name to use. There is no limit on the length of the value of a variable except the amount of swapping space on the computer. When a variable definition is long, it is a good idea to break it into several lines by inserting backslash-newline at convenient places in the definition. This will not affect the functioning of `make', but it will make the makefile easier to read. Most variable names are considered to have the empty string as a value if you have never set them. Several variables have built-in initial values that are not empty, but you can set them in the usual ways (*note Variables Used by Implicit Rules: Implicit Variables.). Several special variables are set automatically to a new value for each rule; these are called the "automatic" variables (*note Automatic Variables: Automatic.).  File: make.info, Node: Appending, Next: Override Directive, Prev: Setting, Up: Using Variables Appending More Text to Variables ================================ Often it is useful to add more text to the value of a variable already defined. You do this with a line containing `+=', like this: objects += another.o This takes the value of the variable `objects', and adds the text `another.o' to it (preceded by a single space). Thus: objects = main.o foo.o bar.o utils.o objects += another.o sets `objects' to `main.o foo.o bar.o utils.o another.o'. Using `+=' is similar to: objects = main.o foo.o bar.o utils.o objects := $(objects) another.o but differs in ways that become important when you use more complex values. When the variable in question has not been defined before, `+=' acts just like normal `=': it defines a recursively-expanded variable. However, when there *is* a previous definition, exactly what `+=' does depends on what flavor of variable you defined originally. *Note The Two Flavors of Variables: Flavors, for an explanation of the two flavors of variables. When you add to a variable's value with `+=', `make' acts essentially as if you had included the extra text in the initial definition of the variable. If you defined it first with `:=', making it a simply-expanded variable, `+=' adds to that simply-expanded definition, and expands the new text before appending it to the old value just as `:=' does (*note Setting Variables: Setting., for a full explanation of `:='). In fact, variable := value variable += more is exactly equivalent to: variable := value variable := $(variable) more On the other hand, when you use `+=' with a variable that you defined first to be recursively-expanded using plain `=', `make' does something a bit different. Recall that when you define a recursively-expanded variable, `make' does not expand the value you set for variable and function references immediately. Instead it stores the text verbatim, and saves these variable and function references to be expanded later, when you refer to the new variable (*note The Two Flavors of Variables: Flavors.). When you use `+=' on a recursively-expanded variable, it is this unexpanded text to which `make' appends the new text you specify. variable = value variable += more is roughly equivalent to: temp = value variable = $(temp) more except that of course it never defines a variable called `temp'. The importance of this comes when the variable's old value contains variable references. Take this common example: CFLAGS = $(includes) -O ... CFLAGS += -pg # enable profiling The first line defines the `CFLAGS' variable with a reference to another variable, `includes'. (`CFLAGS' is used by the rules for C compilation; *note Catalogue of Implicit Rules: Catalogue of Rules..) Using `=' for the definition makes `CFLAGS' a recursively-expanded variable, meaning `$(includes) -O' is *not* expanded when `make' processes the definition of `CFLAGS'. Thus, `includes' need not be defined yet for its value to take effect. It only has to be defined before any reference to `CFLAGS'. If we tried to append to the value of `CFLAGS' without using `+=', we might do it like this: CFLAGS := $(CFLAGS) -pg # enable profiling This is pretty close, but not quite what we want. Using `:=' redefines `CFLAGS' as a simply-expanded variable; this means `make' expands the text `$(CFLAGS) -pg' before setting the variable. If `includes' is not yet defined, we get ` -O -pg', and a later definition of `includes' will have no effect. Conversely, by using `+=' we set `CFLAGS' to the *unexpanded* value `$(includes) -O -pg'. Thus we preserve the reference to `includes', so if that variable gets defined at any later point, a reference like `$(CFLAGS)' still uses its value.  File: make.info, Node: Override Directive, Next: Defining, Prev: Appending, Up: Using Variables The `override' Directive ======================== If a variable has been set with a command argument (*note Overriding Variables: Overriding.), then ordinary assignments in the makefile are ignored. If you want to set the variable in the makefile even though it was set with a command argument, you can use an `override' directive, which is a line that looks like this: override VARIABLE = VALUE or override VARIABLE := VALUE To append more text to a variable defined on the command line, use: override VARIABLE += MORE TEXT *Note Appending More Text to Variables: Appending. The `override' directive was not invented for escalation in the war between makefiles and command arguments. It was invented so you can alter and add to values that the user specifies with command arguments. For example, suppose you always want the `-g' switch when you run the C compiler, but you would like to allow the user to specify the other switches with a command argument just as usual. You could use this `override' directive: override CFLAGS += -g You can also use `override' directives with `define' directives. This is done as you might expect: override define foo bar endef *Note Defining Variables Verbatim: Defining.  File: make.info, Node: Defining, Next: Environment, Prev: Override Directive, Up: Using Variables Defining Variables Verbatim =========================== Another way to set the value of a variable is to use the `define' directive. This directive has an unusual syntax which allows newline characters to be included in the value, which is convenient for defining canned sequences of commands (*note Defining Canned Command Sequences: Sequences.). The `define' directive is followed on the same line by the name of the variable and nothing more. The value to give the variable appears on the following lines. The end of the value is marked by a line containing just the word `endef'. Aside from this difference in syntax, `define' works just like `=': it creates a recursively-expanded variable (*note The Two Flavors of Variables: Flavors.). The variable name may contain function and variable references, which are expanded when the directive is read to find the actual variable name to use. define two-lines echo foo echo $(bar) endef The value in an ordinary assignment cannot contain a newline; but the newlines that separate the lines of the value in a `define' become part of the variable's value (except for the final newline which precedes the `endef' and is not considered part of the value). The previous example is functionally equivalent to this: two-lines = echo foo; echo $(bar) since two commands separated by semicolon behave much like two separate shell commands. However, note that using two separate lines means `make' will invoke the shell twice, running an independent subshell for each line. *Note Command Execution: Execution. If you want variable definitions made with `define' to take precedence over command-line variable definitions, you can use the `override' directive together with `define': override define two-lines foo $(bar) endef *Note The `override' Directive: Override Directive. usr/info/make.info-4 644 0 0 143622 5573776441 12645 0ustar rootrootThis is Info file make.info, produced by Makeinfo-1.54 from the input file ./make.texinfo.

File: make.info, Node: Environment, Prev: Defining, Up: Using Variables Variables from the Environment ============================== Variables in `make' can come from the environment in which `make' is run. Every environment variable that `make' sees when it starts up is transformed into a `make' variable with the same name and value. But an explicit assignment in the makefile, or with a command argument, overrides the environment. (If the `-e' flag is specified, then values from the environment override assignments in the makefile. *Note Summary of Options: Options Summary. But this is not recommended practice.) Thus, by setting the variable `CFLAGS' in your environment, you can cause all C compilations in most makefiles to use the compiler switches you prefer. This is safe for variables with standard or conventional meanings because you know that no makefile will use them for other things. (But this is not totally reliable; some makefiles set `CFLAGS' explicitly and therefore are not affected by the value in the environment.) When `make' is invoked recursively, variables defined in the outer invocation can be passed to inner invocations through the environment (*note Recursive Use of `make': Recursion.). By default, only variables that came from the environment or the command line are passed to recursive invocations. You can use the `export' directive to pass other variables. *Note Communicating Variables to a Sub-`make': Variables/Recursion, for full details. Other use of variables from the environment is not recommended. It is not wise for makefiles to depend for their functioning on environment variables set up outside their control, since this would cause different users to get different results from the same makefile. This is against the whole purpose of most makefiles. Such problems would be especially likely with the variable `SHELL', which is normally present in the environment to specify the user's choice of interactive shell. It would be very undesirable for this choice to affect `make'. So `make' ignores the environment value of `SHELL'.  File: make.info, Node: Conditionals, Next: Functions, Prev: Using Variables, Up: Top Conditional Parts of Makefiles ****************************** A "conditional" causes part of a makefile to be obeyed or ignored depending on the values of variables. Conditionals can compare the value of one variable to another, or the value of a variable to a constant string. Conditionals control what `make' actually "sees" in the makefile, so they *cannot* be used to control shell commands at the time of execution. * Menu: * Conditional Example:: Example of a conditional * Conditional Syntax:: The syntax of conditionals. * Testing Flags:: Conditionals that test flags.  File: make.info, Node: Conditional Example, Next: Conditional Syntax, Up: Conditionals Example of a Conditional ======================== The following example of a conditional tells `make' to use one set of libraries if the `CC' variable is `gcc', and a different set of libraries otherwise. It works by controlling which of two command lines will be used as the command for a rule. The result is that `CC=gcc' as an argument to `make' changes not only which compiler is used but also which libraries are linked. libs_for_gcc = -lgnu normal_libs = foo: $(objects) ifeq ($(CC),gcc) $(CC) -o foo $(objects) $(libs_for_gcc) else $(CC) -o foo $(objects) $(normal_libs) endif This conditional uses three directives: one `ifeq', one `else' and one `endif'. The `ifeq' directive begins the conditional, and specifies the condition. It contains two arguments, separated by a comma and surrounded by parentheses. Variable substitution is performed on both arguments and then they are compared. The lines of the makefile following the `ifeq' are obeyed if the two arguments match; otherwise they are ignored. The `else' directive causes the following lines to be obeyed if the previous conditional failed. In the example above, this means that the second alternative linking command is used whenever the first alternative is not used. It is optional to have an `else' in a conditional. The `endif' directive ends the conditional. Every conditional must end with an `endif'. Unconditional makefile text follows. As this example illustrates, conditionals work at the textual level: the lines of the conditional are treated as part of the makefile, or ignored, according to the condition. This is why the larger syntactic units of the makefile, such as rules, may cross the beginning or the end of the conditional. When the variable `CC' has the value `gcc', the above example has this effect: foo: $(objects) $(CC) -o foo $(objects) $(libs_for_gcc) When the variable `CC' has any other value, the effect is this: foo: $(objects) $(CC) -o foo $(objects) $(normal_libs) Equivalent results can be obtained in another way by conditionalizing a variable assignment and then using the variable unconditionally: libs_for_gcc = -lgnu normal_libs = ifeq ($(CC),gcc) libs=$(libs_for_gcc) else libs=$(normal_libs) endif foo: $(objects) $(CC) -o foo $(objects) $(libs)  File: make.info, Node: Conditional Syntax, Next: Testing Flags, Prev: Conditional Example, Up: Conditionals Syntax of Conditionals ====================== The syntax of a simple conditional with no `else' is as follows: CONDITIONAL-DIRECTIVE TEXT-IF-TRUE endif The TEXT-IF-TRUE may be any lines of text, to be considered as part of the makefile if the condition is true. If the condition is false, no text is used instead. The syntax of a complex conditional is as follows: CONDITIONAL-DIRECTIVE TEXT-IF-TRUE else TEXT-IF-FALSE endif If the condition is true, TEXT-IF-TRUE is used; otherwise, TEXT-IF-FALSE is used instead. The TEXT-IF-FALSE can be any number of lines of text. The syntax of the CONDITIONAL-DIRECTIVE is the same whether the conditional is simple or complex. There are four different directives that test different conditions. Here is a table of them: `ifeq (ARG1, ARG2)' `ifeq 'ARG1' 'ARG2'' `ifeq "ARG1" "ARG2"' `ifeq "ARG1" 'ARG2'' `ifeq 'ARG1' "ARG2"' Expand all variable references in ARG1 and ARG2 and compare them. If they are identical, the TEXT-IF-TRUE is effective; otherwise, the TEXT-IF-FALSE, if any, is effective. Often you want to test if a variable has a non-empty value. When the value results from complex expansions of variables and functions, expansions you would consider empty may actually contain whitespace characters and thus are not seen as empty. However, you can use the `strip' function (*note Text Functions::.) to avoid interpreting whitespace as a non-empty value. For example: ifeq ($(strip $(foo)),) TEXT-IF-EMPTY endif will evaluate TEXT-IF-EMPTY even if the expansion of `$(foo)' contains whitespace characters. `ifneq (ARG1, ARG2)' `ifneq 'ARG1' 'ARG2'' `ifneq "ARG1" "ARG2"' `ifneq "ARG1" 'ARG2'' `ifneq 'ARG1' "ARG2"' Expand all variable references in ARG1 and ARG2 and compare them. If they are different, the TEXT-IF-TRUE is effective; otherwise, the TEXT-IF-FALSE, if any, is effective. `ifdef VARIABLE-NAME' If the variable VARIABLE-NAME has a non-empty value, the TEXT-IF-TRUE is effective; otherwise, the TEXT-IF-FALSE, if any, is effective. Variables that have never been defined have an empty value. Note that `ifdef' only tests whether a variable has a value. It does not expand the variable to see if that value is nonempty. Consequently, tests using `ifdef' return true for all definitions except those like `foo ='. To test for an empty value, use `ifeq ($(foo),)'. For example, bar = foo = $(bar) ifdef foo frobozz = yes else frobozz = no endif sets `frobozz' to `yes', while: foo = ifdef foo frobozz = yes else frobozz = no endif sets `frobozz' to `no'. `ifndef VARIABLE-NAME' If the variable VARIABLE-NAME has an empty value, the TEXT-IF-TRUE is effective; otherwise, the TEXT-IF-FALSE, if any, is effective. Extra spaces are allowed and ignored at the beginning of the conditional directive line, but a tab is not allowed. (If the line begins with a tab, it will be considered a command for a rule.) Aside from this, extra spaces or tabs may be inserted with no effect anywhere except within the directive name or within an argument. A comment starting with `#' may appear at the end of the line. The other two directives that play a part in a conditional are `else' and `endif'. Each of these directives is written as one word, with no arguments. Extra spaces are allowed and ignored at the beginning of the line, and spaces or tabs at the end. A comment starting with `#' may appear at the end of the line. Conditionals affect which lines of the makefile `make' uses. If the condition is true, `make' reads the lines of the TEXT-IF-TRUE as part of the makefile; if the condition is false, `make' ignores those lines completely. It follows that syntactic units of the makefile, such as rules, may safely be split across the beginning or the end of the conditional. `make' evaluates conditionals when it reads a makefile. Consequently, you cannot use automatic variables in the tests of conditionals because they are not defined until commands are run (*note Automatic Variables: Automatic.). To prevent intolerable confusion, it is not permitted to start a conditional in one makefile and end it in another. However, you may write an `include' directive within a conditional, provided you do not attempt to terminate the conditional inside the included file.  File: make.info, Node: Testing Flags, Prev: Conditional Syntax, Up: Conditionals Conditionals that Test Flags ============================ You can write a conditional that tests `make' command flags such as `-t' by using the variable `MAKEFLAGS' together with the `findstring' function (*note Functions for String Substitution and Analysis: Text Functions.). This is useful when `touch' is not enough to make a file appear up to date. The `findstring' function determines whether one string appears as a substring of another. If you want to test for the `-t' flag, use `t' as the first string and the value of `MAKEFLAGS' as the other. For example, here is how to arrange to use `ranlib -t' to finish marking an archive file up to date: archive.a: ... ifneq (,$(findstring t,$(MAKEFLAGS))) +touch archive.a +ranlib -t archive.a else ranlib archive.a endif The `+' prefix marks those command lines as "recursive" so that they will be executed despite use of the `-t' flag. *Note Recursive Use of `make': Recursion.  File: make.info, Node: Functions, Next: Running, Prev: Conditionals, Up: Top Functions for Transforming Text ******************************* "Functions" allow you to do text processing in the makefile to compute the files to operate on or the commands to use. You use a function in a "function call", where you give the name of the function and some text (the "arguments") for the function to operate on. The result of the function's processing is substituted into the makefile at the point of the call, just as a variable might be substituted. * Menu: * Syntax of Functions:: How to write a function call. * Text Functions:: General-purpose text manipulation functions. * Filename Functions:: Functions for manipulating file names. * Foreach Function:: Repeat some text with controlled variation. * Origin Function:: Find where a variable got its value. * Shell Function:: Substitute the output of a shell command.  File: make.info, Node: Syntax of Functions, Next: Text Functions, Up: Functions Function Call Syntax ==================== A function call resembles a variable reference. It looks like this: $(FUNCTION ARGUMENTS) or like this: ${FUNCTION ARGUMENTS} Here FUNCTION is a function name; one of a short list of names that are part of `make'. There is no provision for defining new functions. The ARGUMENTS are the arguments of the function. They are separated from the function name by one or more spaces or tabs, and if there is more than one argument, then they are separated by commas. Such whitespace and commas are not part of an argument's value. The delimiters which you use to surround the function call, whether parentheses or braces, can appear in an argument only in matching pairs; the other kind of delimiters may appear singly. If the arguments themselves contain other function calls or variable references, it is wisest to use the same kind of delimiters for all the references; write `$(subst a,b,$(x))', not `$(subst a,b,${x})'. This is because it is clearer, and because only one type of delimiter is matched to find the end of the reference. The text written for each argument is processed by substitution of variables and function calls to produce the argument value, which is the text on which the function acts. The substitution is done in the order in which the arguments appear. Commas and unmatched parentheses or braces cannot appear in the text of an argument as written; leading spaces cannot appear in the text of the first argument as written. These characters can be put into the argument value by variable substitution. First define variables `comma' and `space' whose values are isolated comma and space characters, then substitute these variables where such characters are wanted, like this: comma:= , empty:= space:= $(empty) $(empty) foo:= a b c bar:= $(subst $(space),$(comma),$(foo)) # bar is now `a,b,c'. Here the `subst' function replaces each space with a comma, through the value of `foo', and substitutes the result.  File: make.info, Node: Text Functions, Next: Filename Functions, Prev: Syntax of Functions, Up: Functions Functions for String Substitution and Analysis ============================================== Here are some functions that operate on strings: `$(subst FROM,TO,TEXT)' Performs a textual replacement on the text TEXT: each occurrence of FROM is replaced by TO. The result is substituted for the function call. For example, $(subst ee,EE,feet on the street) substitutes the string `fEEt on the strEEt'. `$(patsubst PATTERN,REPLACEMENT,TEXT)' Finds whitespace-separated words in TEXT that match PATTERN and replaces them with REPLACEMENT. Here PATTERN may contain a `%' which acts as a wildcard, matching any number of any characters within a word. If REPLACEMENT also contains a `%', the `%' is replaced by the text that matched the `%' in PATTERN. `%' characters in `patsubst' function invocations can be quoted with preceding backslashes (`\'). Backslashes that would otherwise quote `%' characters can be quoted with more backslashes. Backslashes that quote `%' characters or other backslashes are removed from the pattern before it is compared file names or has a stem substituted into it. Backslashes that are not in danger of quoting `%' characters go unmolested. For example, the pattern `the\%weird\\%pattern\\' has `the%weird\' preceding the operative `%' character, and `pattern\\' following it. The final two backslashes are left alone because they cannot affect any `%' character. Whitespace between words is folded into single space characters; leading and trailing whitespace is discarded. For example, $(patsubst %.c,%.o,x.c.c bar.c) produces the value `x.c.o bar.o'. Substitution references (*note Substitution References: Substitution Refs.) are a simpler way to get the effect of the `patsubst' function: $(VAR:PATTERN=REPLACEMENT) is equivalent to $(patsubst PATTERN,REPLACEMENT,$(VAR)) The second shorthand simplifies one of the most common uses of `patsubst': replacing the suffix at the end of file names. $(VAR:SUFFIX=REPLACEMENT) is equivalent to $(patsubst %SUFFIX,%REPLACEMENT,$(VAR)) For example, you might have a list of object files: objects = foo.o bar.o baz.o To get the list of corresponding source files, you could simply write: $(objects:.o=.c) instead of using the general form: $(patsubst %.o,%.c,$(objects)) `$(strip STRING)' Removes leading and trailing whitespace from STRING and replaces each internal sequence of one or more whitespace characters with a single space. Thus, `$(strip a b c )' results in `a b c'. The function `strip' can be very useful when used in conjunction with conditionals. When comparing something with the empty string `' using `ifeq' or `ifneq', you usually want a string of just whitespace to match the empty string (*note Conditionals::.). Thus, the following may fail to have the desired results: .PHONY: all ifneq "$(needs_made)" "" all: $(needs_made) else all:;@echo 'Nothing to make!' endif Replacing the variable reference `$(needs_made)' with the function call `$(strip $(needs_made))' in the `ifneq' directive would make it more robust. `$(findstring FIND,IN)' Searches IN for an occurrence of FIND. If it occurs, the value is FIND; otherwise, the value is empty. You can use this function in a conditional to test for the presence of a specific substring in a given string. Thus, the two examples, $(findstring a,a b c) $(findstring a,b c) produce the values `a' and `' (the empty string), respectively. *Note Testing Flags::, for a practical application of `findstring'. `$(filter PATTERN...,TEXT)' Removes all whitespace-separated words in TEXT that do *not* match any of the PATTERN words, returning only matching words. The patterns are written using `%', just like the patterns used in the `patsubst' function above. The `filter' function can be used to separate out different types of strings (such as file names) in a variable. For example: sources := foo.c bar.c baz.s ugh.h foo: $(sources) cc $(filter %.c %.s,$(sources)) -o foo says that `foo' depends of `foo.c', `bar.c', `baz.s' and `ugh.h' but only `foo.c', `bar.c' and `baz.s' should be specified in the command to the compiler. `$(filter-out PATTERN...,TEXT)' Removes all whitespace-separated words in TEXT that *do* match the PATTERN words, returning only the words that *do not* match. This is the exact opposite of the `filter' function. For example, given: objects=main1.o foo.o main2.o bar.o mains=main1.o main2.o the following generates a list which contains all the object files not in `mains': $(filter-out $(mains),$(objects)) `$(sort LIST)' Sorts the words of LIST in lexical order, removing duplicate words. The output is a list of words separated by single spaces. Thus, $(sort foo bar lose) returns the value `bar foo lose'. Incidentally, since `sort' removes duplicate words, you can use it for this purpose even if you don't care about the sort order. Here is a realistic example of the use of `subst' and `patsubst'. Suppose that a makefile uses the `VPATH' variable to specify a list of directories that `make' should search for dependency files (*note `VPATH' Search Path for All Dependencies: General Search.). This example shows how to tell the C compiler to search for header files in the same list of directories. The value of `VPATH' is a list of directories separated by colons, such as `src:../headers'. First, the `subst' function is used to change the colons to spaces: $(subst :, ,$(VPATH)) This produces `src ../headers'. Then `patsubst' is used to turn each directory name into a `-I' flag. These can be added to the value of the variable `CFLAGS', which is passed automatically to the C compiler, like this: override CFLAGS += $(patsubst %,-I%,$(subst :, ,$(VPATH))) The effect is to append the text `-Isrc -I../headers' to the previously given value of `CFLAGS'. The `override' directive is used so that the new value is assigned even if the previous value of `CFLAGS' was specified with a command argument (*note The `override' Directive: Override Directive.).  File: make.info, Node: Filename Functions, Next: Foreach Function, Prev: Text Functions, Up: Functions Functions for File Names ======================== Several of the built-in expansion functions relate specifically to taking apart file names or lists of file names. Each of the following functions performs a specific transformation on a file name. The argument of the function is regarded as a series of file names, separated by whitespace. (Leading and trailing whitespace is ignored.) Each file name in the series is transformed in the same way and the results are concatenated with single spaces between them. `$(dir NAMES...)' Extracts the directory-part of each file name in NAMES. The directory-part of the file name is everything up through (and including) the last slash in it. If the file name contains no slash, the directory part is the string `./'. For example, $(dir src/foo.c hacks) produces the result `src/ ./'. `$(notdir NAMES...)' Extracts all but the directory-part of each file name in NAMES. If the file name contains no slash, it is left unchanged. Otherwise, everything through the last slash is removed from it. A file name that ends with a slash becomes an empty string. This is unfortunate, because it means that the result does not always have the same number of whitespace-separated file names as the argument had; but we do not see any other valid alternative. For example, $(notdir src/foo.c hacks) produces the result `foo.c hacks'. `$(suffix NAMES...)' Extracts the suffix of each file name in NAMES. If the file name contains a period, the suffix is everything starting with the last period. Otherwise, the suffix is the empty string. This frequently means that the result will be empty when NAMES is not, and if NAMES contains multiple file names, the result may contain fewer file names. For example, $(suffix src/foo.c hacks) produces the result `.c'. `$(basename NAMES...)' Extracts all but the suffix of each file name in NAMES. If the file name contains a period, the basename is everything starting up to (and not including) the last period. Otherwise, the basename is the entire file name. For example, $(basename src/foo.c hacks) produces the result `src/foo hacks'. `$(addsuffix SUFFIX,NAMES...)' The argument NAMES is regarded as a series of names, separated by whitespace; SUFFIX is used as a unit. The value of SUFFIX is appended to the end of each individual name and the resulting larger names are concatenated with single spaces between them. For example, $(addsuffix .c,foo bar) produces the result `foo.c bar.c'. `$(addprefix PREFIX,NAMES...)' The argument NAMES is regarded as a series of names, separated by whitespace; PREFIX is used as a unit. The value of PREFIX is prepended to the front of each individual name and the resulting larger names are concatenated with single spaces between them. For example, $(addprefix src/,foo bar) produces the result `src/foo src/bar'. `$(join LIST1,LIST2)' Concatenates the two arguments word by word: the two first words (one from each argument) concatenated form the first word of the result, the two second words form the second word of the result, and so on. So the Nth word of the result comes from the Nth word of each argument. If one argument has more words that the other, the extra words are copied unchanged into the result. For example, `$(join a b,.c .o)' produces `a.c b.o'. Whitespace between the words in the lists is not preserved; it is replaced with a single space. This function can merge the results of the `dir' and `notdir' functions, to produce the original list of files which was given to those two functions. `$(word N,TEXT)' Returns the Nth word of TEXT. The legitimate values of N start from 1. If N is bigger than the number of words in TEXT, the value is empty. For example, $(word 2, foo bar baz) returns `bar'. `$(words TEXT)' Returns the number of words in TEXT. Thus, the last word of TEXT is `$(word $(words TEXT),TEXT)'. `$(firstword NAMES...)' The argument NAMES is regarded as a series of names, separated by whitespace. The value is the first name in the series. The rest of the names are ignored. For example, $(firstword foo bar) produces the result `foo'. Although `$(firstword TEXT)' is the same as `$(word 1,TEXT)', the `firstword' function is retained for its simplicity. `$(wildcard PATTERN)' The argument PATTERN is a file name pattern, typically containing wildcard characters (as in shell file name patterns). The result of `wildcard' is a space-separated list of the names of existing files that match the pattern. *Note Using Wildcard Characters in File Names: Wildcards.  File: make.info, Node: Foreach Function, Next: Origin Function, Prev: Filename Functions, Up: Functions The `foreach' Function ====================== The `foreach' function is very different from other functions. It causes one piece of text to be used repeatedly, each time with a different substitution performed on it. It resembles the `for' command in the shell `sh' and the `foreach' command in the C-shell `csh'. The syntax of the `foreach' function is: $(foreach VAR,LIST,TEXT) The first two arguments, VAR and LIST, are expanded before anything else is done; note that the last argument, TEXT, is *not* expanded at the same time. Then for each word of the expanded value of LIST, the variable named by the expanded value of VAR is set to that word, and TEXT is expanded. Presumably TEXT contains references to that variable, so its expansion will be different each time. The result is that TEXT is expanded as many times as there are whitespace-separated words in LIST. The multiple expansions of TEXT are concatenated, with spaces between them, to make the result of `foreach'. This simple example sets the variable `files' to the list of all files in the directories in the list `dirs': dirs := a b c d files := $(foreach dir,$(dirs),$(wildcard $(dir)/*)) Here TEXT is `$(wildcard $(dir)/*)'. The first repetition finds the value `a' for `dir', so it produces the same result as `$(wildcard a/*)'; the second repetition produces the result of `$(wildcard b/*)'; and the third, that of `$(wildcard c/*)'. This example has the same result (except for setting `dirs') as the following example: files := $(wildcard a/* b/* c/* d/*) When TEXT is complicated, you can improve readability by giving it a name, with an additional variable: find_files = $(wildcard $(dir)/*) dirs := a b c d files := $(foreach dir,$(dirs),$(find_files)) Here we use the variable `find_files' this way. We use plain `=' to define a recursively-expanding variable, so that its value contains an actual function call to be reexpanded under the control of `foreach'; a simply-expanded variable would not do, since `wildcard' would be called only once at the time of defining `find_files'. The `foreach' function has no permanent effect on the variable VAR; its value and flavor after the `foreach' function call are the same as they were beforehand. The other values which are taken from LIST are in effect only temporarily, during the execution of `foreach'. The variable VAR is a simply-expanded variable during the execution of `foreach'. If VAR was undefined before the `foreach' function call, it is undefined after the call. *Note The Two Flavors of Variables: Flavors. You must take care when using complex variable expressions that result in variable names because many strange things are valid variable names, but are probably not what you intended. For example, files := $(foreach Es escrito en espanol!,b c ch,$(find_files)) might be useful if the value of `find_files' references the variable whose name is `Es escrito en espanol!' (es un nombre bastante largo, no?), but it is more likely to be a mistake.  File: make.info, Node: Origin Function, Next: Shell Function, Prev: Foreach Function, Up: Functions The `origin' Function ===================== The `origin' function is unlike most other functions in that it does not operate on the values of variables; it tells you something *about* a variable. Specifically, it tells you where it came from. The syntax of the `origin' function is: $(origin VARIABLE) Note that VARIABLE is the *name* of a variable to inquire about; not a *reference* to that variable. Therefore you would not normally use a `$' or parentheses when writing it. (You can, however, use a variable reference in the name if you want the name not to be a constant.) The result of this function is a string telling you how the variable VARIABLE was defined: `undefined' if VARIABLE was never defined. `default' if VARIABLE has a default definition, as is usual with `CC' and so on. *Note Variables Used by Implicit Rules: Implicit Variables. Note that if you have redefined a default variable, the `origin' function will return the origin of the later definition. `environment' if VARIABLE was defined as an environment variable and the `-e' option is *not* turned on (*note Summary of Options: Options Summary.). `environment override' if VARIABLE was defined as an environment variable and the `-e' option *is* turned on (*note Summary of Options: Options Summary.). `file' if VARIABLE was defined in a makefile. `command line' if VARIABLE was defined on the command line. `override' if VARIABLE was defined with an `override' directive in a makefile (*note The `override' Directive: Override Directive.). `automatic' if VARIABLE is an automatic variable defined for the execution of the commands for each rule (*note Automatic Variables: Automatic.). This information is primarily useful (other than for your curiosity) to determine if you want to believe the value of a variable. For example, suppose you have a makefile `foo' that includes another makefile `bar'. You want a variable `bletch' to be defined in `bar' if you run the command `make -f bar', even if the environment contains a definition of `bletch'. However, if `foo' defined `bletch' before including `bar', you do not want to override that definition. This could be done by using an `override' directive in `foo', giving that definition precedence over the later definition in `bar'; unfortunately, the `override' directive would also override any command line definitions. So, `bar' could include: ifdef bletch ifeq "$(origin bletch)" "environment" bletch = barf, gag, etc. endif endif If `bletch' has been defined from the environment, this will redefine it. If you want to override a previous definition of `bletch' if it came from the environment, even under `-e', you could instead write: ifneq "$(findstring environment,$(origin bletch))" "" bletch = barf, gag, etc. endif Here the redefinition takes place if `$(origin bletch)' returns either `environment' or `environment override'. *Note Functions for String Substitution and Analysis: Text Functions.  File: make.info, Node: Shell Function, Prev: Origin Function, Up: Functions The `shell' Function ==================== The `shell' function is unlike any other function except the `wildcard' function (*note The Function `wildcard': Wildcard Function.) in that it communicates with the world outside of `make'. The `shell' function performs the same function that backquotes (``') perform in most shells: it does "command expansion". This means that it takes an argument that is a shell command and returns the output of the command. The only processing `make' does on the result, before substituting it into the surrounding text, is to convert newlines to spaces. The commands run by calls to the `shell' function are run when the function calls are expanded. In most cases, this is when the makefile is read in. The exception is that function calls in the commands of the rules are expanded when the commands are run, and this applies to `shell' function calls like all others. Here are some examples of the use of the `shell' function: contents := $(shell cat foo) sets `contents' to the contents of the file `foo', with a space (rather than a newline) separating each line. files := $(shell echo *.c) sets `files' to the expansion of `*.c'. Unless `make' is using a very strange shell, this has the same result as `$(wildcard *.c)'.  File: make.info, Node: Running, Next: Implicit Rules, Prev: Functions, Up: Top How to Run `make' ***************** A makefile that says how to recompile a program can be used in more than one way. The simplest use is to recompile every file that is out of date. Usually, makefiles are written so that if you run `make' with no arguments, it does just that. But you might want to update only some of the files; you might want to use a different compiler or different compiler options; you might want just to find out which files are out of date without changing them. By giving arguments when you run `make', you can do any of these things and many others. The exit status of `make' is always one of three values: `0' The exit status is zero if `make' is successful. `2' The exit status is two if `make' encounters any errors. It will print messages describing the particular errors. `1' The exit status is one if you use the `-q' flag and `make' determines that some target is not already up to date. *Note Instead of Executing the Commands: Instead of Execution. * Menu: * Makefile Arguments:: How to specify which makefile to use. * Goals:: How to use goal arguments to specify which parts of the makefile to use. * Instead of Execution:: How to use mode flags to specify what kind of thing to do with the commands in the makefile other than simply execute them. * Avoiding Compilation:: How to avoid recompiling certain files. * Overriding:: How to override a variable to specify an alternate compiler and other things. * Testing:: How to proceed past some errors, to test compilation. * Options Summary:: Summary of Options  File: make.info, Node: Makefile Arguments, Next: Goals, Up: Running Arguments to Specify the Makefile ================================= The way to specify the name of the makefile is with the `-f' or `--file' option (`--makefile' also works). For example, `-f altmake' says to use the file `altmake' as the makefile. If you use the `-f' flag several times and follow each `-f' with an argument, all the specified files are used jointly as makefiles. If you do not use the `-f' or `--file' flag, the default is to try `GNUmakefile', `makefile', and `Makefile', in that order, and use the first of these three which exists or can be made (*note Writing Makefiles: Makefiles.).  File: make.info, Node: Goals, Next: Instead of Execution, Prev: Makefile Arguments, Up: Running Arguments to Specify the Goals ============================== The "goals" are the targets that `make' should strive ultimately to update. Other targets are updated as well if they appear as dependencies of goals, or dependencies of dependencies of goals, etc. By default, the goal is the first target in the makefile (not counting targets that start with a period). Therefore, makefiles are usually written so that the first target is for compiling the entire program or programs they describe. You can specify a different goal or goals with arguments to `make'. Use the name of the goal as an argument. If you specify several goals, `make' processes each of them in turn, in the order you name them. Any target in the makefile may be specified as a goal (unless it starts with `-' or contains an `=', in which case it will be parsed as a switch or variable definition, respectively). Even targets not in the makefile may be specified, if `make' can find implicit rules that say how to make them. One use of specifying a goal is if you want to compile only a part of the program, or only one of several programs. Specify as a goal each file that you wish to remake. For example, consider a directory containing several programs, with a makefile that starts like this: .PHONY: all all: size nm ld ar as If you are working on the program `size', you might want to say `make size' so that only the files of that program are recompiled. Another use of specifying a goal is to make files that are not normally made. For example, there may be a file of debugging output, or a version of the program that is compiled specially for testing, which has a rule in the makefile but is not a dependency of the default goal. Another use of specifying a goal is to run the commands associated with a phony target (*note Phony Targets::.) or empty target (*note Empty Target Files to Record Events: Empty Targets.). Many makefiles contain a phony target named `clean' which deletes everything except source files. Naturally, this is done only if you request it explicitly with `make clean'. Following is a list of typical phony and empty target names. *Note Standard Targets::, for a detailed list of all the standard target names which GNU software packages use. `all' Make all the top-level targets the makefile knows about. `clean' Delete all files that are normally created by running `make'. `mostlyclean' Like `clean', but may refrain from deleting a few files that people normally don't want to recompile. For example, the `mostlyclean' target for GCC does not delete `libgcc.a', because recompiling it is rarely necessary and takes a lot of time. `distclean' `realclean' `clobber' Any of these targets might be defined to delete *more* files than `clean' does. For example, this would delete configuration files or links that you would normally create as preparation for compilation, even if the makefile itself cannot create these files. `install' Copy the executable file into a directory that users typically search for commands; copy any auxiliary files that the executable uses into the directories where it will look for them. `print' Print listings of the source files that have changed. `tar' Create a tar file of the source files. `shar' Create a shell archive (shar file) of the source files. `dist' Create a distribution file of the source files. This might be a tar file, or a shar file, or a compressed version of one of the above, or even more than one of the above. `TAGS' Update a tags table for this program. `check' `test' Perform self tests on the program this makefile builds.  File: make.info, Node: Instead of Execution, Next: Avoiding Compilation, Prev: Goals, Up: Running Instead of Executing the Commands ================================= The makefile tells `make' how to tell whether a target is up to date, and how to update each target. But updating the targets is not always what you want. Certain options specify other activities for `make'. `-n' `--just-print' `--dry-run' `--recon' "No-op". The activity is to print what commands would be used to make the targets up to date, but not actually execute them. `-t' `--touch' "Touch". The activity is to mark the targets as up to date without actually changing them. In other words, `make' pretends to compile the targets but does not really change their contents. `-q' `--question' "Question". The activity is to find out silently whether the targets are up to date already; but execute no commands in either case. In other words, neither compilation nor output will occur. `-W FILE' `--what-if=FILE' `--assume-new=FILE' `--new-file=FILE' "What if". Each `-W' flag is followed by a file name. The given files' modification times are recorded by `make' as being the present time, although the actual modification times remain the same. You can use the `-W' flag in conjunction with the `-n' flag to see what would happen if you were to modify specific files. With the `-n' flag, `make' prints the commands that it would normally execute but does not execute them. With the `-t' flag, `make' ignores the commands in the rules and uses (in effect) the command `touch' for each target that needs to be remade. The `touch' command is also printed, unless `-s' or `.SILENT' is used. For speed, `make' does not actually invoke the program `touch'. It does the work directly. With the `-q' flag, `make' prints nothing and executes no commands, but the exit status code it returns is zero if and only if the targets to be considered are already up to date. If the exit status is one, then some updating needs to be done. If `make' encounters an error, the exit status is two, so you can distinguish an error from a target that is not up to date. It is an error to use more than one of these three flags in the same invocation of `make'. The `-n', `-t', and `-q' options do not affect command lines that begin with `+' characters or contain the strings `$(MAKE)' or `${MAKE}'. Note that only the line containing the `+' character or the strings `$(MAKE)' or `${MAKE}' is run regardless of these options. Other lines in the same rule are not run unless they too begin with `+' or contain `$(MAKE)' or `${MAKE}' (*Note How the `MAKE' Variable Works: MAKE Variable.) The `-W' flag provides two features: * If you also use the `-n' or `-q' flag, you can see what `make' would do if you were to modify some files. * Without the `-n' or `-q' flag, when `make' is actually executing commands, the `-W' flag can direct `make' to act as if some files had been modified, without actually modifying the files. Note that the options `-p' and `-v' allow you to obtain other information about `make' or about the makefiles in use (*note Summary of Options: Options Summary.).  File: make.info, Node: Avoiding Compilation, Next: Overriding, Prev: Instead of Execution, Up: Running Avoiding Recompilation of Some Files ==================================== Sometimes you may have changed a source file but you do not want to recompile all the files that depend on it. For example, suppose you add a macro or a declaration to a header file that many other files depend on. Being conservative, `make' assumes that any change in the header file requires recompilation of all dependent files, but you know that they do not need to be recompiled and you would rather not waste the time waiting for them to compile. If you anticipate the problem before changing the header file, you can use the `-t' flag. This flag tells `make' not to run the commands in the rules, but rather to mark the target up to date by changing its last-modification date. You would follow this procedure: 1. Use the command `make' to recompile the source files that really need recompilation. 2. Make the changes in the header files. 3. Use the command `make -t' to mark all the object files as up to date. The next time you run `make', the changes in the header files will not cause any recompilation. If you have already changed the header file at a time when some files do need recompilation, it is too late to do this. Instead, you can use the `-o FILE' flag, which marks a specified file as "old" (*note Summary of Options: Options Summary.). This means that the file itself will not be remade, and nothing else will be remade on its account. Follow this procedure: 1. Recompile the source files that need compilation for reasons independent of the particular header file, with `make -o HEADERFILE'. If several header files are involved, use a separate `-o' option for each header file. 2. Touch all the object files with `make -t'.  File: make.info, Node: Overriding, Next: Testing, Prev: Avoiding Compilation, Up: Running Overriding Variables ==================== An argument that contains `=' specifies the value of a variable: `V=X' sets the value of the variable V to X. If you specify a value in this way, all ordinary assignments of the same variable in the makefile are ignored; we say they have been "overridden" by the command line argument. The most common way to use this facility is to pass extra flags to compilers. For example, in a properly written makefile, the variable `CFLAGS' is included in each command that runs the C compiler, so a file `foo.c' would be compiled something like this: cc -c $(CFLAGS) foo.c Thus, whatever value you set for `CFLAGS' affects each compilation that occurs. The makefile probably specifies the usual value for `CFLAGS', like this: CFLAGS=-g Each time you run `make', you can override this value if you wish. For example, if you say `make CFLAGS='-g -O'', each C compilation will be done with `cc -c -g -O'. (This illustrates how you can use quoting in the shell to enclose spaces and other special characters in the value of a variable when you override it.) The variable `CFLAGS' is only one of many standard variables that exist just so that you can change them this way. *Note Variables Used by Implicit Rules: Implicit Variables, for a complete list. You can also program the makefile to look at additional variables of your own, giving the user the ability to control other aspects of how the makefile works by changing the variables. When you override a variable with a command argument, you can define either a recursively-expanded variable or a simply-expanded variable. The examples shown above make a recursively-expanded variable; to make a simply-expanded variable, write `:=' instead of `='. But, unless you want to include a variable reference or function call in the *value* that you specify, it makes no difference which kind of variable you create. There is one way that the makefile can change a variable that you have overridden. This is to use the `override' directive, which is a line that looks like this: `override VARIABLE = VALUE' (*note The `override' Directive: Override Directive.).  File: make.info, Node: Testing, Next: Options Summary, Prev: Overriding, Up: Running Testing the Compilation of a Program ==================================== Normally, when an error happens in executing a shell command, `make' gives up immediately, returning a nonzero status. No further commands are executed for any target. The error implies that the goal cannot be correctly remade, and `make' reports this as soon as it knows. When you are compiling a program that you have just changed, this is not what you want. Instead, you would rather that `make' try compiling every file that can be tried, to show you as many compilation errors as possible. On these occasions, you should use the `-k' or `--keep-going' flag. This tells `make' to continue to consider the other dependencies of the pending targets, remaking them if necessary, before it gives up and returns nonzero status. For example, after an error in compiling one object file, `make -k' will continue compiling other object files even though it already knows that linking them will be impossible. In addition to continuing after failed shell commands, `make -k' will continue as much as possible after discovering that it does not know how to make a target or dependency file. This will always cause an error message, but without `-k', it is a fatal error (*note Summary of Options: Options Summary.). The usual behavior of `make' assumes that your purpose is to get the goals up to date; once `make' learns that this is impossible, it might as well report the failure immediately. The `-k' flag says that the real purpose is to test as much as possible of the changes made in the program, perhaps to find several independent problems so that you can correct them all before the next attempt to compile. This is why Emacs' `M-x compile' command passes the `-k' flag by default. usr/info/make.info-5 644 0 0 140571 5573776442 12647 0ustar rootrootThis is Info file make.info, produced by Makeinfo-1.54 from the input file ./make.texinfo.

File: make.info, Node: Options Summary, Prev: Testing, Up: Running Summary of Options ================== Here is a table of all the options `make' understands: `-b' `-m' These options are ignored for compatibility with other versions of `make'. `-C DIR' `--directory=DIR' Change to directory DIR before reading the makefiles. If multiple `-C' options are specified, each is interpreted relative to the previous one: `-C / -C etc' is equivalent to `-C /etc'. This is typically used with recursive invocations of `make' (*note Recursive Use of `make': Recursion.). `-d' `--debug' Print debugging information in addition to normal processing. The debugging information says which files are being considered for remaking, which file-times are being compared and with what results, which files actually need to be remade, which implicit rules are considered and which are applied--everything interesting about how `make' decides what to do. `-e' `--environment-overrides' Give variables taken from the environment precedence over variables from makefiles. *Note Variables from the Environment: Environment. `-f FILE' `--file=FILE' `--makefile=FILE' Read the file named FILE as a makefile. *Note Writing Makefiles: Makefiles. `-h' `--help' Remind you of the options that `make' understands and then exit. `-i' `--ignore-errors' Ignore all errors in commands executed to remake files. *Note Errors in Commands: Errors. `-I DIR' `--include-dir=DIR' Specifies a directory DIR to search for included makefiles. *Note Including Other Makefiles: Include. If several `-I' options are used to specify several directories, the directories are searched in the order specified. `-j [JOBS]' `--jobs=[JOBS]' Specifies the number of jobs (commands) to run simultaneously. With no argument, `make' runs as many jobs simultaneously as possible. If there is more than one `-j' option, the last one is effective. *Note Parallel Execution: Parallel, for more information on how commands are run. `-k' `--keep-going' Continue as much as possible after an error. While the target that failed, and those that depend on it, cannot be remade, the other dependencies of these targets can be processed all the same. *Note Testing the Compilation of a Program: Testing. `-l [LOAD]' `--load-average[=LOAD]' `--max-load[=LOAD]' Specifies that no new jobs (commands) should be started if there are other jobs running and the load average is at least LOAD (a floating-point number). With no argument, removes a previous load limit. *Note Parallel Execution: Parallel. `-n' `--just-print' `--dry-run' `--recon' Print the commands that would be executed, but do not execute them. *Note Instead of Executing the Commands: Instead of Execution. `-o FILE' `--old-file=FILE' `--assume-old=FILE' Do not remake the file FILE even if it is older than its dependencies, and do not remake anything on account of changes in FILE. Essentially the file is treated as very old and its rules are ignored. *Note Avoiding Recompilation of Some Files: Avoiding Compilation. `-p' `--print-data-base' Print the data base (rules and variable values) that results from reading the makefiles; then execute as usual or as otherwise specified. This also prints the version information given by the `-v' switch (see below). To print the data base without trying to remake any files, use `make -p -f /dev/null'. `-q' `--question' "Question mode". Do not run any commands, or print anything; just return an exit status that is zero if the specified targets are already up to date, one if any remaking is required, or two if an error is encountered. *Note Instead of Executing the Commands: Instead of Execution. `-r' `--no-builtin-rules' Eliminate use of the built-in implicit rules (*note Using Implicit Rules: Implicit Rules.). You can still define your own by writing pattern rules (*note Defining and Redefining Pattern Rules: Pattern Rules.). The `-r' option also clears out the default list of suffixes for suffix rules (*note Old-Fashioned Suffix Rules: Suffix Rules.). But you can still define your own suffixes with a rule for `.SUFFIXES', and then define your own suffix rules. `-s' `--silent' `--quiet' Silent operation; do not print the commands as they are executed. *Note Command Echoing: Echoing. `-S' `--no-keep-going' `--stop' Cancel the effect of the `-k' option. This is never necessary except in a recursive `make' where `-k' might be inherited from the top-level `make' via `MAKEFLAGS' (*note Recursive Use of `make': Recursion.) or if you set `-k' in `MAKEFLAGS' in your environment. `-t' `--touch' Touch files (mark them up to date without really changing them) instead of running their commands. This is used to pretend that the commands were done, in order to fool future invocations of `make'. *Note Instead of Executing the Commands: Instead of Execution. `-v' `--version' Print the version of the `make' program plus a copyright, a list of authors, and a notice that there is no warranty; then exit. `-w' `--print-directory' Print a message containing the working directory both before and after executing the makefile. This may be useful for tracking down errors from complicated nests of recursive `make' commands. *Note Recursive Use of `make': Recursion. (In practice, you rarely need to specify this option since `make' does it for you; see *Note The `--print-directory' Option: -w Option.) `--no-print-directory' Disable printing of the working directory under `-w'. This option is useful when `-w' is turned on automatically, but you do not want to see the extra messages. *Note The `--print-directory' Option: -w Option. `-W FILE' `--what-if=FILE' `--new-file=FILE' `--assume-new=FILE' Pretend that the target FILE has just been modified. When used with the `-n' flag, this shows you what would happen if you were to modify that file. Without `-n', it is almost the same as running a `touch' command on the given file before running `make', except that the modification time is changed only in the imagination of `make'. *Note Instead of Executing the Commands: Instead of Execution. `--warn-undefined-variables' Issue a warning message whenever `make' sees a reference to an undefined variable. This can be helpful when you are trying to debug makefiles which use variables in complex ways.  File: make.info, Node: Implicit Rules, Next: Archives, Prev: Running, Up: Top Using Implicit Rules ******************** Certain standard ways of remaking target files are used very often. For example, one customary way to make an object file is from a C source file using the C compiler, `cc'. "Implicit rules" tell `make' how to use customary techniques so that you do not have to specify them in detail when you want to use them. For example, there is an implicit rule for C compilation. File names determine which implicit rules are run. For example, C compilation typically takes a `.c' file and makes a `.o' file. So `make' applies the implicit rule for C compilation when it sees this combination of file name endings. A chain of implicit rules can apply in sequence; for example, `make' will remake a `.o' file from a `.y' file by way of a `.c' file. The built-in implicit rules use several variables in their commands so that, by changing the values of the variables, you can change the way the implicit rule works. For example, the variable `CFLAGS' controls the flags given to the C compiler by the implicit rule for C compilation. You can define your own implicit rules by writing "pattern rules". "Suffix rules" are a more limited way to define implicit rules. Pattern rules are more general and clearer, but suffix rules are retained for compatibility. * Menu: * Using Implicit:: How to use an existing implicit rule to get the commands for updating a file. * Catalogue of Rules:: A list of built-in implicit rules. * Implicit Variables:: How to change what predefined rules do. * Chained Rules:: How to use a chain of implicit rules. * Pattern Rules:: How to define new implicit rules. * Last Resort:: How to defining commands for rules which cannot find any. * Suffix Rules:: The old-fashioned style of implicit rule. * Search Algorithm:: The precise algorithm for applying implicit rules.  File: make.info, Node: Using Implicit, Next: Catalogue of Rules, Up: Implicit Rules Using Implicit Rules ==================== To allow `make' to find a customary method for updating a target file, all you have to do is refrain from specifying commands yourself. Either write a rule with no command lines, or don't write a rule at all. Then `make' will figure out which implicit rule to use based on which kind of source file exists or can be made. For example, suppose the makefile looks like this: foo : foo.o bar.o cc -o foo foo.o bar.o $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) Because you mention `foo.o' but do not give a rule for it, `make' will automatically look for an implicit rule that tells how to update it. This happens whether or not the file `foo.o' currently exists. If an implicit rule is found, it can supply both commands and one or more dependencies (the source files). You would want to write a rule for `foo.o' with no command lines if you need to specify additional dependencies, such as header files, that the implicit rule cannot supply. Each implicit rule has a target pattern and dependency patterns. There may be many implicit rules with the same target pattern. For example, numerous rules make `.o' files: one, from a `.c' file with the C compiler; another, from a `.p' file with the Pascal compiler; and so on. The rule that actually applies is the one whose dependencies exist or can be made. So, if you have a file `foo.c', `make' will run the C compiler; otherwise, if you have a file `foo.p', `make' will run the Pascal compiler; and so on. Of course, when you write the makefile, you know which implicit rule you want `make' to use, and you know it will choose that one because you know which possible dependency files are supposed to exist. *Note Catalogue of Implicit Rules: Catalogue of Rules, for a catalogue of all the predefined implicit rules. Above, we said an implicit rule applies if the required dependencies "exist or can be made". A file "can be made" if it is mentioned explicitly in the makefile as a target or a dependency, or if an implicit rule can be recursively found for how to make it. When an implicit dependency is the result of another implicit rule, we say that "chaining" is occurring. *Note Chains of Implicit Rules: Chained Rules. In general, `make' searches for an implicit rule for each target, and for each double-colon rule, that has no commands. A file that is mentioned only as a dependency is considered a target whose rule specifies nothing, so implicit rule search happens for it. *Note Implicit Rule Search Algorithm: Search Algorithm, for the details of how the search is done. Note that explicit dependencies do not influence implicit rule search. For example, consider this explicit rule: foo.o: foo.p The dependency on `foo.p' does not necessarily mean that `make' will remake `foo.o' according to the implicit rule to make an object file, a `.o' file, from a Pascal source file, a `.p' file. For example, if `foo.c' also exists, the implicit rule to make an object file from a C source file is used instead, because it appears before the Pascal rule in the list of predefined implicit rules (*note Catalogue of Implicit Rules: Catalogue of Rules.). If you do not want an implicit rule to be used for a target that has no commands, you can give that target empty commands by writing a semicolon (*note Defining Empty Commands: Empty Commands.).  File: make.info, Node: Catalogue of Rules, Next: Implicit Variables, Prev: Using Implicit, Up: Implicit Rules Catalogue of Implicit Rules =========================== Here is a catalogue of predefined implicit rules which are always available unless the makefile explicitly overrides or cancels them. *Note Canceling Implicit Rules: Canceling Rules, for information on canceling or overriding an implicit rule. The `-r' or `--no-builtin-rules' option cancels all predefined rules. Not all of these rules will always be defined, even when the `-r' option is not given. Many of the predefined implicit rules are implemented in `make' as suffix rules, so which ones will be defined depends on the "suffix list" (the list of dependencies of the special target `.SUFFIXES'). The default suffix list is: `.out', `.a', `.ln', `.o', `.c', `.cc', `.C', `.p', `.f', `.F', `.r', `.y', `.l', `.s', `.S', `.mod', `.sym', `.def', `.h', `.info', `.dvi', `.tex', `.texinfo', `.texi', `.txinfo', `.w', `.ch' `.web', `.sh', `.elc', `.el'. All of the implicit rules described below whose dependencies have one of these suffixes are actually suffix rules. If you modify the suffix list, the only predefined suffix rules in effect will be those named by one or two of the suffixes that are on the list you specify; rules whose suffixes fail to be on the list are disabled. *Note Old-Fashioned Suffix Rules: Suffix Rules, for full details on suffix rules. Compiling C programs `N.o' is made automatically from `N.c' with a command of the form `$(CC) -c $(CPPFLAGS) $(CFLAGS)'. Compiling C++ programs `N.o' is made automatically from `N.cc' or `N.C' with a command of the form `$(CXX) -c $(CPPFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS)'. We encourage you to use the suffix `.cc' for C++ source files instead of `.C'. Compiling Pascal programs `N.o' is made automatically from `N.p' with the command `$(PC) -c $(PFLAGS)'. Compiling Fortran and Ratfor programs `N.o' is made automatically from `N.r', `N.F' or `N.f' by running the Fortran compiler. The precise command used is as follows: `.f' `$(FC) -c $(FFLAGS)'. `.F' `$(FC) -c $(FFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS)'. `.r' `$(FC) -c $(FFLAGS) $(RFLAGS)'. Preprocessing Fortran and Ratfor programs `N.f' is made automatically from `N.r' or `N.F'. This rule runs just the preprocessor to convert a Ratfor or preprocessable Fortran program into a strict Fortran program. The precise command used is as follows: `.F' `$(FC) -F $(CPPFLAGS) $(FFLAGS)'. `.r' `$(FC) -F $(FFLAGS) $(RFLAGS)'. Compiling Modula-2 programs `N.sym' is made from `N.def' with a command of the form `$(M2C) $(M2FLAGS) $(DEFFLAGS)'. `N.o' is made from `N.mod'; the form is: `$(M2C) $(M2FLAGS) $(MODFLAGS)'. Assembling and preprocessing assembler programs `N.o' is made automatically from `N.s' by running the assembler, `as'. The precise command is `$(AS) $(ASFLAGS)'. `N.s' is made automatically from `N.S' by running the C preprocessor, `cpp'. The precise command is `$(CPP) $(CPPFLAGS)'. Linking a single object file `N' is made automatically from `N.o' by running the linker (usually called `ld') via the C compiler. The precise command used is `$(CC) $(LDFLAGS) N.o $(LOADLIBES)'. This rule does the right thing for a simple program with only one source file. It will also do the right thing if there are multiple object files (presumably coming from various other source files), one of which has a name matching that of the executable file. Thus, x: y.o z.o when `x.c', `y.c' and `z.c' all exist will execute: cc -c x.c -o x.o cc -c y.c -o y.o cc -c z.c -o z.o cc x.o y.o z.o -o x rm -f x.o rm -f y.o rm -f z.o In more complicated cases, such as when there is no object file whose name derives from the executable file name, you must write an explicit command for linking. Each kind of file automatically made into `.o' object files will be automatically linked by using the compiler (`$(CC)', `$(FC)' or `$(PC)'; the C compiler `$(CC)' is used to assemble `.s' files) without the `-c' option. This could be done by using the `.o' object files as intermediates, but it is faster to do the compiling and linking in one step, so that's how it's done. Yacc for C programs `N.c' is made automatically from `N.y' by running Yacc with the command `$(YACC) $(YFLAGS)'. Lex for C programs `N.c' is made automatically from `N.l' by by running Lex. The actual command is `$(LEX) $(LFLAGS)'. Lex for Ratfor programs `N.r' is made automatically from `N.l' by by running Lex. The actual command is `$(LEX) $(LFLAGS)'. The convention of using the same suffix `.l' for all Lex files regardless of whether they produce C code or Ratfor code makes it impossible for `make' to determine automatically which of the two languages you are using in any particular case. If `make' is called upon to remake an object file from a `.l' file, it must guess which compiler to use. It will guess the C compiler, because that is more common. If you are using Ratfor, make sure `make' knows this by mentioning `N.r' in the makefile. Or, if you are using Ratfor exclusively, with no C files, remove `.c' from the list of implicit rule suffixes with: .SUFFIXES: .SUFFIXES: .o .r .f .l ... Making Lint Libraries from C, Yacc, or Lex programs `N.ln' is made from `N.c' by running `lint'. The precise command is `$(LINT) $(LINTFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) -i'. The same command is used on the C code produced from `N.y' or `N.l'. TeX and Web `N.dvi' is made from `N.tex' with the command `$(TEX)'. `N.tex' is made from `N.web' with `$(WEAVE)', or from `N.w' (and from `N.ch' if it exists or can be made) with `$(CWEAVE)'. `N.p' is made from `N.web' with `$(TANGLE)' and `N.c' is made from `N.w' (and from `N.ch' if it exists or can be made) with `$(CTANGLE)'. Texinfo and Info `N.dvi' is made from `N.texinfo', `N.texi', or `N.txinfo', with the command `$(TEXI2DVI) $(TEXI2DVI_FLAGS)'. `N.info' is made from `N.texinfo', `N.texi', or `N.txinfo', with the command `$(MAKEINFO) $(MAKEINFO_FLAGS)'. RCS Any file `N' is extracted if necessary from an RCS file named either `N,v' or `RCS/N,v'. The precise command used is `$(CO) $(COFLAGS)'. `N' will not be extracted from RCS if it already exists, even if the RCS file is newer. The rules for RCS are terminal (*note Match-Anything Pattern Rules: Match-Anything Rules.), so RCS files cannot be generated from another source; they must actually exist. SCCS Any file `N' is extracted if necessary from an SCCS file named either `s.N' or `SCCS/s.N'. The precise command used is `$(GET) $(GFLAGS)'. The rules for SCCS are terminal (*note Match-Anything Pattern Rules: Match-Anything Rules.), so SCCS files cannot be generated from another source; they must actually exist. For the benefit of SCCS, a file `N' is copied from `N.sh' and made executable (by everyone). This is for shell scripts that are checked into SCCS. Since RCS preserves the execution permission of a file, you do not need to use this feature with RCS. We recommend that you avoid using of SCCS. RCS is widely held to be superior, and is also free. By choosing free software in place of comparable (or inferior) proprietary software, you support the free software movement. Usually, you want to change only the variables listed in the table above, which are documented in the following section. However, the commands in built-in implicit rules actually use variables such as `COMPILE.c', `LINK.p', and `PREPROCESS.S', whose values contain the commands listed above. `make' follows the convention that the rule to compile a `.X' source file uses the variable `COMPILE.X'. Similarly, the rule to produce an executable from a `.X' file uses `LINK.X'; and the rule to preprocess a `.X' file uses `PREPROCESS.X'. Every rule that produces an object file uses the variable `OUTPUT_OPTION'. `make' defines this variable either to contain `-o $@', or to be empty, depending on a compile-time option. You need the `-o' option to ensure that the output goes into the right file when the source file is in a different directory, as when using `VPATH' (*note Directory Search::.). However, compilers on some systems do not accept a `-o' switch for object files. If you use such a system, and use `VPATH', some compilations will put their output in the wrong place. A possible workaround for this problem is to give `OUTPUT_OPTION' the value `; mv $*.o $@'.  File: make.info, Node: Implicit Variables, Next: Chained Rules, Prev: Catalogue of Rules, Up: Implicit Rules Variables Used by Implicit Rules ================================ The commands in built-in implicit rules make liberal use of certain predefined variables. You can alter these variables in the makefile, with arguments to `make', or in the environment to alter how the implicit rules work without redefining the rules themselves. For example, the command used to compile a C source file actually says `$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS)'. The default values of the variables used are `cc' and nothing, resulting in the command `cc -c'. By redefining `CC' to `ncc', you could cause `ncc' to be used for all C compilations performed by the implicit rule. By redefining `CFLAGS' to be `-g', you could pass the `-g' option to each compilation. *All* implicit rules that do C compilation use `$(CC)' to get the program name for the compiler and *all* include `$(CFLAGS)' among the arguments given to the compiler. The variables used in implicit rules fall into two classes: those that are names of programs (like `CC') and those that contain arguments for the programs (like `CFLAGS'). (The "name of a program" may also contain some command arguments, but it must start with an actual executable program name.) If a variable value contains more than one argument, separate them with spaces. Here is a table of variables used as names of programs in built-in rules: `AR' Archive-maintaining program; default `ar'. `AS' Program for doing assembly; default `as'. `CC' Program for compiling C programs; default `cc'. `CXX' Program for compiling C++ programs; default `g++'. `CO' Program for extracting a file from RCS; default `co'. `CPP' Program for running the C preprocessor, with results to standard output; default `$(CC) -E'. `FC' Program for compiling or preprocessing Fortran and Ratfor programs; default `f77'. `GET' Program for extracting a file from SCCS; default `get'. `LEX' Program to use to turn Lex grammars into C programs or Ratfor programs; default `lex'. `PC' Program for compiling Pascal programs; default `pc'. `YACC' Program to use to turn Yacc grammars into C programs; default `yacc'. `YACCR' Program to use to turn Yacc grammars into Ratfor programs; default `yacc -r'. `MAKEINFO' Program to convert a Texinfo source file into an Info file; default `makeinfo'. `TEX' Program to make TeX DVI files from TeX source; default `tex'. `TEXI2DVI' Program to make TeX DVI files from Texinfo source; default `texi2dvi'. `WEAVE' Program to translate Web into TeX; default `weave'. `CWEAVE' Program to translate C Web into TeX; default `cweave'. `TANGLE' Program to translate Web into Pascal; default `tangle'. `CTANGLE' Program to translate C Web into C; default `ctangle'. `RM' Command to remove a file; default `rm -f'. Here is a table of variables whose values are additional arguments for the programs above. The default values for all of these is the empty string, unless otherwise noted. `ARFLAGS' Flags to give the archive-maintaining program; default `rv'. `ASFLAGS' Extra flags to give to the assembler (when explicitly invoked on a `.s' or `.S' file). `CFLAGS' Extra flags to give to the C compiler. `CXXFLAGS' Extra flags to give to the C++ compiler. `COFLAGS' Extra flags to give to the RCS `co' program. `CPPFLAGS' Extra flags to give to the C preprocessor and programs that use it (the C and Fortran compilers). `FFLAGS' Extra flags to give to the Fortran compiler. `GFLAGS' Extra flags to give to the SCCS `get' program. `LDFLAGS' Extra flags to give to compilers when they are supposed to invoke the linker, `ld'. `LFLAGS' Extra flags to give to Lex. `PFLAGS' Extra flags to give to the Pascal compiler. `RFLAGS' Extra flags to give to the Fortran compiler for Ratfor programs. `YFLAGS' Extra flags to give to Yacc.  File: make.info, Node: Chained Rules, Next: Pattern Rules, Prev: Implicit Variables, Up: Implicit Rules Chains of Implicit Rules ======================== Sometimes a file can be made by a sequence of implicit rules. For example, a file `N.o' could be made from `N.y' by running first Yacc and then `cc'. Such a sequence is called a "chain". If the file `N.c' exists, or is mentioned in the makefile, no special searching is required: `make' finds that the object file can be made by C compilation from `N.c'; later on, when considering how to make `N.c', the rule for running Yacc is used. Ultimately both `N.c' and `N.o' are updated. However, even if `N.c' does not exist and is not mentioned, `make' knows how to envision it as the missing link between `N.o' and `N.y'! In this case, `N.c' is called an "intermediate file". Once `make' has decided to use the intermediate file, it is entered in the data base as if it had been mentioned in the makefile, along with the implicit rule that says how to create it. Intermediate files are remade using their rules just like all other files. The difference is that the intermediate file is deleted when `make' is finished. Therefore, the intermediate file which did not exist before `make' also does not exist after `make'. The deletion is reported to you by printing a `rm -f' command that shows what `make' is doing. (You can list the target pattern of an implicit rule (such as `%.o') as a dependency of the special target `.PRECIOUS' to preserve intermediate files made by implicit rules whose target patterns match that file's name; see *Note Interrupts::.) A chain can involve more than two implicit rules. For example, it is possible to make a file `foo' from `RCS/foo.y,v' by running RCS, Yacc and `cc'. Then both `foo.y' and `foo.c' are intermediate files that are deleted at the end. No single implicit rule can appear more than once in a chain. This means that `make' will not even consider such a ridiculous thing as making `foo' from `foo.o.o' by running the linker twice. This constraint has the added benefit of preventing any infinite loop in the search for an implicit rule chain. There are some special implicit rules to optimize certain cases that would otherwise be handled by rule chains. For example, making `foo' from `foo.c' could be handled by compiling and linking with separate chained rules, using `foo.o' as an intermediate file. But what actually happens is that a special rule for this case does the compilation and linking with a single `cc' command. The optimized rule is used in preference to the step-by-step chain because it comes earlier in the ordering of rules.  File: make.info, Node: Pattern Rules, Next: Last Resort, Prev: Chained Rules, Up: Implicit Rules Defining and Redefining Pattern Rules ===================================== You define an implicit rule by writing a "pattern rule". A pattern rule looks like an ordinary rule, except that its target contains the character `%' (exactly one of them). The target is considered a pattern for matching file names; the `%' can match any nonempty substring, while other characters match only themselves. The dependencies likewise use `%' to show how their names relate to the target name. Thus, a pattern rule `%.o : %.c' says how to make any file `STEM.o' from another file `STEM.c'. Note that expansion using `%' in pattern rules occurs *after* any variable or function expansions, which take place when the makefile is read. *Note How to Use Variables: Using Variables, and *Note Functions for Transforming Text: Functions. * Menu: * Pattern Intro:: An introduction to pattern rules. * Pattern Examples:: Examples of pattern rules. * Automatic:: How to use automatic variables in the commands of implicit rules. * Pattern Match:: How patterns match. * Match-Anything Rules:: Precautions you should take prior to defining rules that can match any target file whatever. * Canceling Rules:: How to override or cancel built-in rules.  File: make.info, Node: Pattern Intro, Next: Pattern Examples, Up: Pattern Rules Introduction to Pattern Rules ----------------------------- A pattern rule contains the character `%' (exactly one of them) in the target; otherwise, it looks exactly like an ordinary rule. The target is a pattern for matching file names; the `%' matches any nonempty substring, while other characters match only themselves. For example, `%.c' as a pattern matches any file name that ends in `.c'. `s.%.c' as a pattern matches any file name that starts with `s.', ends in `.c' and is at least five characters long. (There must be at least one character to match the `%'.) The substring that the `%' matches is called the "stem". `%' in a dependency of a pattern rule stands for the same stem that was matched by the `%' in the target. In order for the pattern rule to apply, its target pattern must match the file name under consideration, and its dependency patterns must name files that exist or can be made. These files become dependencies of the target. Thus, a rule of the form %.o : %.c ; COMMAND... specifies how to make a file `N.o', with another file `N.c' as its dependency, provided that `N.c' exists or can be made. There may also be dependencies that do not use `%'; such a dependency attaches to every file made by this pattern rule. These unvarying dependencies are useful occasionally. A pattern rule need not have any dependencies that contain `%', or in fact any dependencies at all. Such a rule is effectively a general wildcard. It provides a way to make any file that matches the target pattern. *Note Last Resort::. Pattern rules may have more than one target. Unlike normal rules, this does not act as many different rules with the same dependencies and commands. If a pattern rule has multiple targets, `make' knows that the rule's commands are responsible for making all of the targets. The commands are executed only once to make all the targets. When searching for a pattern rule to match a target, the target patterns of a rule other than the one that matches the target in need of a rule are incidental: `make' worries only about giving commands and dependencies to the file presently in question. However, when this file's commands are run, the other targets are marked as having been updated themselves. The order in which pattern rules appear in the makefile is important since this is the order in which they are considered. Of equally applicable rules, only the first one found is used. The rules you write take precedence over those that are built in. Note however, that a rule whose dependencies actually exist or are mentioned always takes priority over a rule with dependencies that must be made by chaining other implicit rules.  File: make.info, Node: Pattern Examples, Next: Automatic, Prev: Pattern Intro, Up: Pattern Rules Pattern Rule Examples --------------------- Here are some examples of pattern rules actually predefined in `make'. First, the rule that compiles `.c' files into `.o' files: %.o : %.c $(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $< -o $@ defines a rule that can make any file `X.o' from `X.c'. The command uses the automatic variables `$@' and `$<' to substitute the names of the target file and the source file in each case where the rule applies (*note Automatic Variables: Automatic.). Here is a second built-in rule: % :: RCS/%,v $(CO) $(COFLAGS) $< defines a rule that can make any file `X' whatsoever from a corresponding file `X,v' in the subdirectory `RCS'. Since the target is `%', this rule will apply to any file whatever, provided the appropriate dependency file exists. The double colon makes the rule "terminal", which means that its dependency may not be an intermediate file (*note Match-Anything Pattern Rules: Match-Anything Rules.). This pattern rule has two targets: %.tab.c %.tab.h: %.y bison -d $< This tells `make' that the command `bison -d X.y' will make both `X.tab.c' and `X.tab.h'. If the file `foo' depends on the files `parse.tab.o' and `scan.o' and the file `scan.o' depends on the file `parse.tab.h', when `parse.y' is changed, the command `bison -d parse.y' will be executed only once, and the dependencies of both `parse.tab.o' and `scan.o' will be satisfied. (Presumably the file `parse.tab.o' will be recompiled from `parse.tab.c' and the file `scan.o' from `scan.c', while `foo' is linked from `parse.tab.o', `scan.o', and its other dependencies, and it will execute happily ever after.)  File: make.info, Node: Automatic, Next: Pattern Match, Prev: Pattern Examples, Up: Pattern Rules Automatic Variables ------------------- Suppose you are writing a pattern rule to compile a `.c' file into a `.o' file: how do you write the `cc' command so that it operates on the right source file name? You cannot write the name in the command, because the name is different each time the implicit rule is applied. What you do is use a special feature of `make', the "automatic variables". These variables have values computed afresh for each rule that is executed, based on the target and dependencies of the rule. In this example, you would use `$@' for the object file name and `$<' for the source file name. Here is a table of automatic variables: `$@' The file name of the target of the rule. If the target is an archive member, then `$@' is the name of the archive file. In a pattern rule that has multiple targets (*note Introduction to Pattern Rules: Pattern Intro.), `$@' is the name of whichever target caused the rule's commands to be run. `$%' The target member name, when the target is an archive member. *Note Archives::. For example, if the target is `foo.a(bar.o)' then `$%' is `bar.o' and `$@' is `foo.a'. `$%' is empty when the target is not an archive member. `$<' The name of the first dependency. If the target got its commands from an implicit rule, this will be the first dependency added by the implicit rule (*note Implicit Rules::.). `$?' The names of all the dependencies that are newer than the target, with spaces between them. For dependencies which are archive members, only the member named is used (*note Archives::.). `$^' The names of all the dependencies, with spaces between them. For dependencies which are archive members, only the member named is used (*note Archives::.). A target has only one dependency on each other file it depends on, no matter how many times each file is listed as a dependency. So if you list a dependency more than once for a target, the value of `$^' contains just one copy of the name. `$*' The stem with which an implicit rule matches (*note How Patterns Match: Pattern Match.). If the target is `dir/a.foo.b' and the target pattern is `a.%.b' then the stem is `dir/foo'. The stem is useful for constructing names of related files. In a static pattern rule, the stem is part of the file name that matched the `%' in the target pattern. In an explicit rule, there is no stem; so `$*' cannot be determined in that way. Instead, if the target name ends with a recognized suffix (*note Old-Fashioned Suffix Rules: Suffix Rules.), `$*' is set to the target name minus the suffix. For example, if the target name is `foo.c', then `$*' is set to `foo', since `.c' is a suffix. GNU `make' does this bizarre thing only for compatibility with other implementations of `make'. You should generally avoid using `$*' except in implicit rules or static pattern rules. If the target name in an explicit rule does not end with a recognized suffix, `$*' is set to the empty string for that rule. `$?' is useful even in explicit rules when you wish to operate on only the dependencies that have changed. For example, suppose that an archive named `lib' is supposed to contain copies of several object files. This rule copies just the changed object files into the archive: lib: foo.o bar.o lose.o win.o ar r lib $? Of the variables listed above, four have values that are single file names, and two have values that are lists of file names. These six have variants that get just the file's directory name or just the file name within the directory. The variant variables' names are formed by appending `D' or `F', respectively. These variants are semi-obsolete in GNU `make' since the functions `dir' and `notdir' can be used to get a similar effect (*note Functions for File Names: Filename Functions.). Note, however, that the `F' variants all omit the trailing slash which always appears in the output of the `dir' function. Here is a table of the variants: `$(@D)' The directory part of the file name of the target, with the trailing slash removed. If the value of `$@' is `dir/foo.o' then `$(@D)' is `dir'. This value is `.' if `$@' does not contain a slash. `$(@F)' The file-within-directory part of the file name of the target. If the value of `$@' is `dir/foo.o' then `$(@F)' is `foo.o'. `$(@F)' is equivalent to `$(notdir $@)'. `$(*D)' `$(*F)' The directory part and the file-within-directory part of the stem; `dir' and `foo' in this example. `$(%D)' `$(%F)' The directory part and the file-within-directory part of the target archive member name. This makes sense only for archive member targets of the form `ARCHIVE(MEMBER)' and is useful only when MEMBER may contain a directory name. (*Note Archive Members as Targets: Archive Members.) `$( foo.1 will fail when the current directory is not the source directory, because `foo.man' and `sedscript' are not in the current directory. When using GNU `make', relying on `VPATH' to find the source file will work in the case where there is a single dependency file, since the `make' automatic variable `$<' will represent the source file wherever it is. (Many versions of `make' set `$<' only in implicit rules.) A makefile target like foo.o : bar.c $(CC) -I. -I$(srcdir) $(CFLAGS) -c bar.c -o foo.o should instead be written as foo.o : bar.c $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $< -o $@ in order to allow `VPATH' to work correctly. When the target has multiple dependencies, using an explicit `$(srcdir)' is the easiest way to make the rule work well. For example, the target above for `foo.1' is best written as: foo.1 : foo.man sedscript sed -s $(srcdir)/sedscript $(srcdir)/foo.man > foo.1  File: make.info, Node: Utilities in Makefiles, Next: Standard Targets, Prev: Makefile Basics, Up: Makefile Conventions Utilities in Makefiles ====================== Write the Makefile commands (and any shell scripts, such as `configure') to run in `sh', not in `csh'. Don't use any special features of `ksh' or `bash'. The `configure' script and the Makefile rules for building and installation should not use any utilities directly except these: cat cmp cp echo egrep expr grep ln mkdir mv pwd rm rmdir sed test touch Stick to the generally supported options for these programs. For example, don't use `mkdir -p', convenient as it may be, because most systems don't support it. The Makefile rules for building and installation can also use compilers and related programs, but should do so via `make' variables so that the user can substitute alternatives. Here are some of the programs we mean: ar bison cc flex install ld lex make makeinfo ranlib texi2dvi yacc When you use `ranlib', you should test whether it exists, and run it only if it exists, so that the distribution will work on systems that don't have `ranlib'. If you use symbolic links, you should implement a fallback for systems that don't have symbolic links. It is ok to use other utilities in Makefile portions (or scripts) intended only for particular systems where you know those utilities to exist.  File: make.info, Node: Standard Targets, Next: Command Variables, Prev: Utilities in Makefiles, Up: Makefile Conventions Standard Targets for Users ========================== All GNU programs should have the following targets in their Makefiles: `all' Compile the entire program. This should be the default target. This target need not rebuild any documentation files; Info files should normally be included in the distribution, and DVI files should be made only when explicitly asked for. `install' Compile the program and copy the executables, libraries, and so on to the file names where they should reside for actual use. If there is a simple test to verify that a program is properly installed, this target should run that test. The commands should create all the directories in which files are to be installed, if they don't already exist. This includes the directories specified as the values of the variables `prefix' and `exec_prefix', as well as all subdirectories that are needed. One way to do this is by means of an `installdirs' target as described below. Use `-' before any command for installing a man page, so that `make' will ignore any errors. This is in case there are systems that don't have the Unix man page documentation system installed. The way to install Info files is to copy them into `$(infodir)' with `$(INSTALL_DATA)' (*note Command Variables::.), and then run the `install-info' program if it is present. `install-info' is a script that edits the Info `dir' file to add or update the menu entry for the given Info file; it will be part of the Texinfo package. Here is a sample rule to install an Info file: $(infodir)/foo.info: foo.info # There may be a newer info file in . than in srcdir. -if test -f foo.info; then d=.; \ else d=$(srcdir); fi; \ $(INSTALL_DATA) $$d/foo.info $@; \ # Run install-info only if it exists. # Use `if' instead of just prepending `-' to the # line so we notice real errors from install-info. # We use `$(SHELL) -c' because some shells do not # fail gracefully when there is an unknown command. if $(SHELL) -c 'install-info --version' \ >/dev/null 2>&1; then \ install-info --infodir=$(infodir) $$d/foo.info; \ else true; fi `uninstall' Delete all the installed files that the `install' target would create (but not the noninstalled files such as `make all' would create). `clean' Delete all files from the current directory that are normally created by building the program. Don't delete the files that record the configuration. Also preserve files that could be made by building, but normally aren't because the distribution comes with them. Delete `.dvi' files here if they are not part of the distribution. `distclean' Delete all files from the current directory that are created by configuring or building the program. If you have unpacked the source and built the program without creating any other files, `make distclean' should leave only the files that were in the distribution. `mostlyclean' Like `clean', but may refrain from deleting a few files that people normally don't want to recompile. For example, the `mostlyclean' target for GCC does not delete `libgcc.a', because recompiling it is rarely necessary and takes a lot of time. `realclean' Delete everything from the current directory that can be reconstructed with this Makefile. This typically includes everything deleted by `distclean', plus more: C source files produced by Bison, tags tables, Info files, and so on. One exception, however: `make realclean' should not delete `configure' even if `configure' can be remade using a rule in the Makefile. More generally, `make realclean' should not delete anything that needs to exist in order to run `configure' and then begin to build the program. `TAGS' Update a tags table for this program. `info' Generate any Info files needed. The best way to write the rules is as follows: info: foo.info foo.info: foo.texi chap1.texi chap2.texi $(MAKEINFO) $(srcdir)/foo.texi You must define the variable `MAKEINFO' in the Makefile. It should run the `makeinfo' program, which is part of the Texinfo distribution. `dvi' Generate DVI files for all TeXinfo documentation. For example: dvi: foo.dvi foo.dvi: foo.texi chap1.texi chap2.texi $(TEXI2DVI) $(srcdir)/foo.texi You must define the variable `TEXI2DVI' in the Makefile. It should run the program `texi2dvi', which is part of the Texinfo distribution. Alternatively, write just the dependencies, and allow GNU Make to provide the command. `dist' Create a distribution tar file for this program. The tar file should be set up so that the file names in the tar file start with a subdirectory name which is the name of the package it is a distribution for. This name can include the version number. For example, the distribution tar file of GCC version 1.40 unpacks into a subdirectory named `gcc-1.40'. The easiest way to do this is to create a subdirectory appropriately named, use `ln' or `cp' to install the proper files in it, and then `tar' that subdirectory. The `dist' target should explicitly depend on all non-source files that are in the distribution, to make sure they are up to date in the distribution. *Note Making Releases: (standards)Releases. `check' Perform self-tests (if any). The user must build the program before running the tests, but need not install the program; you should write the self-tests so that they work when the program is built but not installed. The following targets are suggested as conventional names, for programs in which they are useful. `installcheck' Perform installation tests (if any). The user must build and install the program before running the tests. You should not assume that `$(bindir)' is in the search path. `installdirs' It's useful to add a target named `installdirs' to create the directories where files are installed, and their parent directories. There is a script called `mkinstalldirs' which is convenient for this; find it in the Texinfo package.You can use a rule like this: # Make sure all installation directories (e.g. $(bindir)) # actually exist by making them if necessary. installdirs: mkinstalldirs $(srcdir)/mkinstalldirs $(bindir) $(datadir) \ $(libdir) $(infodir) \ $(mandir)  File: make.info, Node: Command Variables, Next: Directory Variables, Prev: Standard Targets, Up: Makefile Conventions Variables for Specifying Commands ================================= Makefiles should provide variables for overriding certain commands, options, and so on. In particular, you should run most utility programs via variables. Thus, if you use Bison, have a variable named `BISON' whose default value is set with `BISON = bison', and refer to it with `$(BISON)' whenever you need to use Bison. File management utilities such as `ln', `rm', `mv', and so on, need not be referred to through variables in this way, since users don't need to replace them with other programs. Each program-name variable should come with an options variable that is used to supply options to the program. Append `FLAGS' to the program-name variable name to get the options variable name--for example, `BISONFLAGS'. (The name `CFLAGS' is an exception to this rule, but we keep it because it is standard.) Use `CPPFLAGS' in any compilation command that runs the preprocessor, and use `LDFLAGS' in any compilation command that does linking as well as in any direct use of `ld'. If there are C compiler options that *must* be used for proper compilation of certain files, do not include them in `CFLAGS'. Users expect to be able to specify `CFLAGS' freely themselves. Instead, arrange to pass the necessary options to the C compiler independently of `CFLAGS', by writing them explicitly in the compilation commands or by defining an implicit rule, like this: CFLAGS = -g ALL_CFLAGS = -I. $(CFLAGS) .c.o: $(CC) -c $(CPPFLAGS) $(ALL_CFLAGS) $< Do include the `-g' option in `CFLAGS', because that is not *required* for proper compilation. You can consider it a default that is only recommended. If the package is set up so that it is compiled with GCC by default, then you might as well include `-O' in the default value of `CFLAGS' as well. Put `CFLAGS' last in the compilation command, after other variables containing compiler options, so the user can use `CFLAGS' to override the others. Every Makefile should define the variable `INSTALL', which is the basic command for installing a file into the system. Every Makefile should also define the variables `INSTALL_PROGRAM' and `INSTALL_DATA'. (The default for each of these should be `$(INSTALL)'.) Then it should use those variables as the commands for actual installation, for executables and nonexecutables respectively. Use these variables as follows: $(INSTALL_PROGRAM) foo $(bindir)/foo $(INSTALL_DATA) libfoo.a $(libdir)/libfoo.a Always use a file name, not a directory name, as the second argument of the installation commands. Use a separate command for each file to be installed.  File: make.info, Node: Directory Variables, Prev: Command Variables, Up: Makefile Conventions Variables for Installation Directories ====================================== Installation directories should always be named by variables, so it is easy to install in a nonstandard place. The standard names for these variables are: `prefix' A prefix used in constructing the default values of the variables listed below. The default value of `prefix' should be `/usr/local' (at least for now). `exec_prefix' A prefix used in constructing the default values of some of the variables listed below. The default value of `exec_prefix' should be `$(prefix)'. Generally, `$(exec_prefix)' is used for directories that contain machine-specific files (such as executables and subroutine libraries), while `$(prefix)' is used directly for other directories. `bindir' The directory for installing executable programs that users can run. This should normally be `/usr/local/bin', but write it as `$(exec_prefix)/bin'. `libdir' The directory for installing executable files to be run by the program rather than by users. Object files and libraries of object code should also go in this directory. The idea is that this directory is used for files that pertain to a specific machine architecture, but need not be in the path for commands. The value of `libdir' should normally be `/usr/local/lib', but write it as `$(exec_prefix)/lib'. `datadir' The directory for installing read-only data files which the programs refer to while they run. This directory is used for files which are independent of the type of machine being used. This should normally be `/usr/local/lib', but write it as `$(prefix)/lib'. `statedir' The directory for installing data files which the programs modify while they run. These files should be independent of the type of machine being used, and it should be possible to share them among machines at a network installation. This should normally be `/usr/local/lib', but write it as `$(prefix)/lib'. `includedir' The directory for installing header files to be included by user programs with the C `#include' preprocessor directive. This should normally be `/usr/local/include', but write it as `$(prefix)/include'. Most compilers other than GCC do not look for header files in `/usr/local/include'. So installing the header files this way is only useful with GCC. Sometimes this is not a problem because some libraries are only really intended to work with GCC. But some libraries are intended to work with other compilers. They should install their header files in two places, one specified by `includedir' and one specified by `oldincludedir'. `oldincludedir' The directory for installing `#include' header files for use with compilers other than GCC. This should normally be `/usr/include'. The Makefile commands should check whether the value of `oldincludedir' is empty. If it is, they should not try to use it; they should cancel the second installation of the header files. A package should not replace an existing header in this directory unless the header came from the same package. Thus, if your Foo package provides a header file `foo.h', then it should install the header file in the `oldincludedir' directory if either (1) there is no `foo.h' there or (2) the `foo.h' that exists came from the Foo package. To tell whether `foo.h' came from the Foo package, put a magic string in the file--part of a comment--and grep for that string. `mandir' The directory for installing the man pages (if any) for this package. It should include the suffix for the proper section of the manual--usually `1' for a utility. It will normally be `/usr/local/man/man1', but you should write it as `$(prefix)/man/man1'. `man1dir' The directory for installing section 1 man pages. `man2dir' The directory for installing section 2 man pages. `...' Use these names instead of `mandir' if the package needs to install man pages in more than one section of the manual. *Don't make the primary documentation for any GNU software be a man page. Write a manual in Texinfo instead. Man pages are just for the sake of people running GNU software on Unix, which is a secondary application only.* `manext' The file name extension for the installed man page. This should contain a period followed by the appropriate digit; it should normally be `.1'. `man1ext' The file name extension for installed section 1 man pages. `man2ext' The file name extension for installed section 2 man pages. `...' Use these names instead of `manext' if the package needs to install man pages in more than one section of the manual. `infodir' The directory for installing the Info files for this package. By default, it should be `/usr/local/info', but it should be written as `$(prefix)/info'. `srcdir' The directory for the sources being compiled. The value of this variable is normally inserted by the `configure' shell script. For example: # Common prefix for installation directories. # NOTE: This directory must exist when you start the install. prefix = /usr/local exec_prefix = $(prefix) # Where to put the executable for the command `gcc'. bindir = $(exec_prefix)/bin # Where to put the directories used by the compiler. libdir = $(exec_prefix)/lib # Where to put the Info files. infodir = $(prefix)/info If your program installs a large number of files into one of the standard user-specified directories, it might be useful to group them into a subdirectory particular to that program. If you do this, you should write the `install' rule to create these subdirectories. Do not expect the user to include the subdirectory name in the value of any of the variables listed above. The idea of having a uniform set of variable names for installation directories is to enable the user to specify the exact same values for several different GNU packages. In order for this to be useful, all the packages must be designed so that they will work sensibly when the user does so. usr/info/make.info-7 644 0 0 41464 5573776443 12633 0ustar rootrootThis is Info file make.info, produced by Makeinfo-1.54 from the input file ./make.texinfo.
