DEPMAKER
========

A GNU MAKE Helper for building binaries with automatic dependency handling.

 

DEPMAKER uses a simple directory structure for finding sources, every module may
contain the following directories and/or files:

| ./include   | Include files here, Directory will automatically be added to Compilers Search Path              |
|-------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| ./src       | Source files here                                                                               |
| Makefile    | Simple makefile (optional), may use DEPENDS=… to inform about other modules, needed to compile  |
| global.make | Global flags for Compilers can go here                                                          |

 

DEPMAKER will first build a list of needed dependencies by walking over the
DEPEND=… vars to find all needed modules and setup the correct compiler flags
and prefixes (e.g. COMPILER_PREFIX=„avr-„).

Dependency modules are built first and static libraries are composed, which will
then be linked to the start module.

 

Usage
-----

-   Place in project subdirectory, e.g. depmaker

-   Create Makefile in your Project directory like this example:

 

`CFLAGS+=-DF_CPU=16000000`

`DEPENDS=module1 ../some_extern_code lib/libmoda lib/libmodc`

 

`%:`

`$(MAKE) -f depmaker/Makefile $@`

 
use: *make depend* to manually check dependencies
use: *make build* to build the executable
