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