man mkdep (Commandes) - mkdep
NAME
mkdep - construct Makefile dependency list
SYNOPSIS
mkdep [-ap] [-f file] [flags]file [...]
DESCRIPTION
mkdep
takes a set of flags for the C compiler and a list of C source files as arguments and constructs a set of include file dependencies which are written into the file ``.depend''. An example of its use in a Makefile might be: CFLAGS= -O -I../include SRCS= file1.c file2.c
depend: mkdep ${CFLAGS} ${SRCS}
where the macro SRCS is the list of C source files and the macro CFLAGS is the list of flags for the C compiler.
The options are as follows:
- -a
- Append to the output file, so that multiple mkdep Ns 's may be run from a single Makefile.
- -f file
- Write the include file dependencies to file , instead of the default ``.depend''.
- -p
- Cause mkdep to produce dependencies of the form: program: program.c so that subsequent makes will produce program directly from its C module rather than using an intermediate .o module. This is useful for programs whose source is contained in a single module.
