GNU - make program, what?
(At some point you may want to learn about a program called make, which keeps track of which parts need recompiling and issues the appropriate commands for you.)
Based on this sentences I took the curiosity to Google but I am not able to understand much
Functions - GNU `make'
As you can see this list is too long and seems I cannot handle them without some initial guidance.
Thank You!
Google for "makefile tutorial". There are plenty of resources that don't throw the entire manual at you straight away.
make is only useful on large projects. If you are not working on a large project right now, your time is probably better spend doing/learning other things.
Even if you are working on a large project, chances are you can just use autotools or CMake and not have to bother with writing makefiles, which are tedious.
C programming resources:
GNU C Function and Macro Index -- glibc reference manual
The C Book -- nice online learner guide
Current ISO draft standard
CCAN -- new CPAN like open source library repository
3 (different) GNU debugger tutorials: #1 -- #2 -- #3
cpwiki -- our wiki on sourceforge
You gave us a link to chapter 8 of the manual. Are we to assume that you got through chapters 1 through 7?Originally Posted by c_lady
