2.  GNU Make

The "make" utility automates the mundane aspects of building executable from source code. "make" uses a so-called makefile, which contains rules on how to build the executables.

You can issue "make --help" to list the command-line options; or "man make" to display the man pages.

Let's begin with a simple example to build the Hello-world program (hello.c) into executable (hello.exe) via make utility.

create the following file named"makefile"(without file extension)(//can be performed in notepad++);and save in the same source folder;use Tab to indent the command(not space)(//ok)

all: hello.exe

hello.exe: hello.o
     gcc -o hello.exe hello.o

hello.o: hello.c
     gcc -c hello.c
     
clean:
     rm hello.o hello.exe

 

 The Mingw work in my computer,to use make command:

 copy the ****make.exe and change the name to make.exe.
