Thread: Makefiles

Hello all o/,

I'm starting to move some of my older projects from naf shellscripts which compile my code to a naf Makefile which compiles the code. For some of the projects which don't use external libraries, it's easy. However for a few I'm stumped. I've got a workaround, but it's a pretty naf one.

So, essentially. How can I add pkg-config variables to my makefile ?

Code:

# Makefile.
#
CC=gcc
CFLAGS=-Wall -pedantic
PKGCFG=`pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0`
# CC+=${PKGCFG}    # The evil workaround I mentioned.

all: ExcuseGen
ExcuseGen: main.o
	${CC} -o ExcuseGen main.o ${PKGCFG}
 
main.o: main.c

clean:
	rm -f ExcuseGen *.core *.o

Any suggestions would be a great help!

Fixed. I decided to not to bother with the seperation, and wrote the following instead:

Code:

# Makefile.
#
CC=gcc
CFLAGS=-Wall -pedantic
LIBS += `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0`

all: ExcuseGen
ExcuseGen: main.c
	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o ExcuseGen main.c $(LIBS) 
 
clean:
	rm -f ExcuseGen *.core *.o
