Now you don't have to run make clean all the time anymore. Could someone with access to automake also incorporate the changes into the Makefile.am's? Is the makedepend exe included in MinGW? Because I rewrote the Makefile.raw s to run with just a plain MinGW installation (without MSys). Would be ugly if we now required a non standard exe for a task like dependency checking... Eh, no, makedepend is part of the linux/cygwin x11-bin package, I ran the cygwin version. And it is not that every user needs to run make depend, it just needs to be done when there are changes to the includes. I believe there are switches to make gcc do the same as makedepend, but a lot slower. But in the Makefile I found .PHONY depend... Would mean that he does depend on every run, or am I wrong? No, .PHONY is a flag that signals make that the targets do not produce a file (such as an .o or .exe), see http://theory.uwinnipeg.ca/gnu/make/make_33.html - Gerard ___ Warzone-dev mailing list Warzone-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/warzone-dev

I believe there are switches to make gcc do the same as makedepend, but a lot slower. I do not know about slower, but there is no need to add dependencies to files that are checked in, at least not if you use gcc -M. The standard way to do this is, it seems, to create new, hidden files with dependency information for each .c file. In autohell, those are added as .Po files in a separate .deps directory. One advantage of this is that you do not need to check in changes to dependencies to the repository. I had some fun with gnu make and gcc -M a few months ago, and created a very generalized build system with only those two components, including configuration checking, 'make dist' and dependency generation. You can see it at http://svn.gna.org/viewcvs/buckyball/trunk/ if you are interested. I do not know how well something like that would scale. - Per ___ Warzone-dev mailing list Warzone-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/warzone-dev
