I've fixed my Makefile. Here's a working version, in case it will be of help to someone else. Oh, by-the-way, this is for GNU make, not BSD make. -Andrew #### Begin Makefile #### ## Makefile for GNU make ## compiler settings CC = gcc CFLAGS = -Wall -g ## directory layout BASEDIR = ../alice SRCDIR = $(BASEDIR)/sources/ OBJDIR = $(BASEDIR)/objects/ DOCDIR = $(BASEDIR)/documentation ## sources SRC = main.c help.c status.c buffer.c device.c error.c insane.c ## objects OBJ = main.o help.o status.o buffer.o device.o error.o insane.o ## list of objects containing relative path for each OBJLIST = $(addprefix $(OBJDIR), $(OBJ)) ## pathes for make to search VPATH = $(SRCDIR) $(OBJDIR) alice: $(OBJ) $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o $@ $(OBJLIST) %.o: %.c alice.h $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $< -o $(OBJDIR)$@ clean: rm $(OBJLIST) *.core distclean: clean rm -r *~ #### End Makefile #### _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
