Makefiles

Various makefiles I've developed over the years: two makefiles for building projects written in the C programming language and one for generating man pages from AsciiDoc files.

C makefiles

The two makefiles for C projects are library.mk and executable.mk. library.mk produces static and shared library files, while executable.mk produces an executable file.

These make targets are available:

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

Source subdirectories

Subdirectories of the top-level source directory containing code to be compiled need to be listed in the SRC_SUBDIRS variable.

For example, to compile files in src, src/foo and src/foo/bar write the following:

SRC_DIR := src
...
SRC_SUBDIRS := foo foo/bar

Cross-compilation

By passing the TARGET=WINDOWS argument to make, the makefiles will produce output for Windows, provided that the appropriate cross-compiler is installed.

Man pages makefile

The manuals.mk makefile converts AsciiDoc files into man pages. Similarly to the C makefiles, it supports source subdirectories.

License

I release these makefiles under the CC0 public domain license.
