makefile cheatsheet

kinda chaotic i know, but i made it for myself :P

under binsem.a

 "gcc -c binsem.c"  creates the binsem.o 

binsem.o is then inserted by ar into libbinsem.a

then ranlib does some indexing (not a must afaik)

libbinsem.a is then used by the first gcc command where you see -lbinsem.

if you want to use a static lib that doesnt have the lib prefix -lbinsem can be replaces with binsem.a for example if you want to call it binsem.a 

like so:

ph: ph.c binsem.a
    gcc ${FLAGS} ph.c binsem.a -lut -o ph

binsem.a:
    gcc $(FLAGS) -c binsem.c
    ar rcu binsem.a binsem.o
    ranlib binsem.a


here is the makefile itself:

#all: binsem.a ut.a ph
FLAGS = -Wall -Werror  -L./


ph: ph.c binsem.a
    gcc ${FLAGS} ph.c -lbinsem -lut -o ph


binsem.a:
    gcc $(FLAGS) -c binsem.c
    ar rcu libbinsem.a binsem.o
    ranlib libbinsem.a


ut.a:
    gcc $(FLAGS)  -c ut.c
    ar rcu libut.a ut.o
    ranlib libut.a

clean:
    rm -f *.o
    rm -f a.out
    rm -f *~
    rm -f ph
    rm -f *a
