Thread: As it is now, or Makefile.am Makefile.in been?

Good all!
I am pleased once again to display.
I often see projects that have different files in its composition, not similar to any project or windose kodeblok-y.
Many different files were found, and as such Makefile.am, and Makefile.in, and various others.
How to compile the project? Which files are more important to control?

Previously, it was probably more than six months ago, I saw a Makefile.am, and Makefile.in and then I could not, absolutely nothing happened.

My computer is Vindovs and I intend to compile using Code :: Blocks.
Can you advise me what I install additional software, where to download?
Can you guide me along the way, achieving the end for the compilation of such programs?

I have already advised Autotools. But whether inside windose? Where better to download it?

Or a different kind of program would be better for me?

Yes, a lot of them here. A lot of! It turns out even in unusual abundance. 21 Then the folder with subfolders, each one to 10-20 .h files with extensions and .spp and all sorts of other more too. And 49 Configure file! And yet configure.ac and configure.tgt, and then such configure.host, is the expansion of configure.com, and even then Configure.launch in addition there are too many of them. And maybe some more. And as they make friends with kodeblok as their correct reading? What are some steps to turn in kodeblok project or still further third-party programs yet?
