Over the years, developing side projects using the C programming
languages, I've written these two makefiles to make building programs
and libraries easier. These are library.mk and executable.mk.
Both makefiles are setup to support Unix-like systems and Windows, allowing for compilation on either system and even Linux-to-Windows cross-compilation.
Multiple source directories are supported. By default, the src
directory is used as top-level directory and any subdirectory can be
listed in the SRC_SUBDIRS variable (if multiple top-level directories
are needed, SRC_DIRS can be manually set).
| Command | Result | Library | Executable |
|---|---|---|---|
| make | Build the program/library | x | x |
| make clean | Remove all build files | x | x |
| make run | Execute the program | x | |
| make build-static | Build only the static library | x | |
| make build-shared | Build only the shared library | x |
To avoid discouraging anyone that might find these files useful, I release them under the CC0 public domain licence.
