.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm Make
|
|
is a program designed to simplify the maintenance of other programs.
|
|
Its input is a list of specifications as to the files upon which programs
|
|
and other files depend.
|
|
If the file
|
|
.Ql Pa makefile
|
|
exists, it is read for this list of specifications.
|
|
If it does not exist, the file
|
|
.Ql Pa Makefile
|
|
is read.
|
|
If the file
|
|
.Ql Pa .depend
|
|
exists, it is read (see
|
|
.Xr mkdep 1) .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This manual page is intended as a reference document only.
|
|

|
before each command line in the makefile.
|
|
.It Fl t
|
|
Rather than re-building a target as specified in the makefile, create it
|
|
or update its modification time to make it appear up-to-date.
|
|
.It Ar variable=value
|
|
Set the value of the variable
|
|
.Ar variable
|
|
to
|
|
.Ar value .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
There are six different types of lines in a makefile: file dependency
|
|
specifications, shell commands, variable assignments, include statements,
|
|
conditional directives, and comments.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In general, lines may be continued from one line to the next by ending
|
|
them with a backslash
|
|
.Pq Ql \e .
|
|
The trailing newline character and initial whitespace on the following
|
|
line are compressed into a single space.
|
|
.Sh FILE DEPENDENCY SPECIFICATIONS
|
|
Dependency lines consist of one or more targets, an operator, and zero
|
|
or more sources.
|
|
This creates a relationship where the targets ``depend'' on the sources
|
|
and are usually created from them.
|
|
The exact relationship between the target and the source is determined
|
|
by the operator that separates them.
|
|
The three operators are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width flag
|
|
.It Ic \&:
|
|
A target is considered out-of-date if its modification time is less than
|
|
those of any of its sources.
|
|
Sources for a target accumulate over dependency lines when this operator
|
|
is used.
|
|
The target is removed if
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
is interrupted.
|
|
.It Ic \&!
|
|
Targets are always re-created, but not until all sources have been
|
|
examined and re-created as necessary.
|
|
Sources for a target accumulate over dependency lines when this operator
|
|
is used.
|
|
The target is removed if
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
is interrupted.
|
|
.It Ic \&::
|
|
If no sources are specified, the target is always re-created.
|
|
Otherwise, a target is considered out-of-date if any of its sources has
|
|
been modified more recently than the target.
|
|
Sources for a target do not accumulate over dependency lines when this
|
|
operator is used.
|
|
The target will not be removed if
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
is interrupted.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Targets and sources may contain the shell wildcard values
|
|
.Ql ? ,
|
|
.Ql * ,
|
|
.Ql []
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql {} .
|
|
The values
|
|
.Ql ? ,
|
|
.Ql *
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql []
|
|
may only be used as part of the final
|
|
component of the target or source, and must be used to describe existing
|
|
files.
|
|
The value
|
|
.Ql {}
|
|
need not necessarily be used to describe existing files.
|
|
Expansion is in directory order, not alphabetically as done in the shell.
|
|
.Sh SHELL COMMANDS
|
|
Each target may have associated with it a series of shell commands, normally
|
|
used to create the target.
|
|
Each of the commands in this script
|
|
.Em must
|
|
be preceded by a tab.
|
|
While any target may appear on a dependency line, only one of these
|
|
dependencies may be followed by a creation script, unless the
|
|
.Ql Ic ::
|
|
operator is used.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the first or first two characters of the command line are
|
|
.Ql Ic @
|
|
and/or
|
|
.Ql Ic \- ,
|
|
the command is treated specially.
|
|
A
|
|
.Ql Ic @
|
|
causes the command not to be echoed before it is executed.
|
|
A
|
|
.Ql Ic \-
|
|
causes any non-zero exit status of the command line to be ignored.
|
|
.Sh VARIABLE ASSIGNMENTS
|
|
Variables in make are much like variables in the shell, and, by tradition,
|
|
consist of all upper-case letters.
|
|
The five operators that can be used to assign values to variables are as
|
|
follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Ic \&=
|
|
Assign the value to the variable.
|
|
Any previous value is overridden.
|
|
.It Ic \&+=
|
|
Append the value to the current value of the variable.
|
|
.It Ic \&?=
|
|
Assign the value to the variable if it is not already defined.
|
|
.It Ic \&:=
|
|
Assign with expansion, i.e. expand the value before assigning it
|
|
to the variable.
|
|
Normally, expansion is not done until the variable is referenced.
|
|
.It Ic \&!=
|
|
Expand the value and pass it to the shell for execution and assign
|
|
the result to the variable.
|
|
Any newlines in the result are replaced with spaces.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Any white-space before the assigned
|
|
.Ar value
|
|
is removed; if the value is being appended, a single space is inserted
|
|
between the previous contents of the variable and the appended value.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Variables are expanded by surrounding the variable name with either
|
|
curly braces
|
|
.Pq Ql {}
|
|
or parenthesis
|
|
.Pq Ql ()
|
|
and preceding it with
|
|
a dollar sign
|
|
.Pq Ql \&$ .
|
|
If the variable name contains only a single letter, the surrounding
|
|
braces or parenthesis are not required.
|
|
This shorter form is not recommended.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Variable substitution occurs at two distinct times, depending on where
|
|
the variable is being used.
|
|
Variables in dependency lines are expanded as the line is read.
|
|
Variables in shell commands are expanded when the shell command is
|
|
executed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The four different classes of variables (in order of increasing precedence)
|
|
are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Environment variables
|
|
Variables defined as part of
|
|
.Nm make Ns 's
|
|
environment.
|
|
.It Global variables
|
|
Variables defined in the makefile or in included makefiles.
|
|
.It Command line variables
|
|
Variables defined as part of the command line.
|
|
.It Local variables
|
|
Variables that are defined specific to a certain target.
|
|
The seven local variables are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".ARCHIVE"
|
|
.It Va .ALLSRC
|
|
The list of all sources for this target; also known as
|
|
.Ql Va \&> .
|
|
.It Va .ARCHIVE
|
|
The name of the archive file.
|
|
.It Va .IMPSRC
|
|
The name/path of the source from which the target is to be transformed
|
|
(the ``implied'' source); also known as
|
|
.Ql Va \&< .
|
|
.It Va .MEMBER
|
|
The name of the archive member.
|
|
.It Va .OODATE
|
|
The list of sources for this target that were deemed out-of-date; also
|
|
known as
|
|
.Ql Va \&? .
|
|
.It Va .PREFIX
|
|
The file prefix of the file, containing only the file portion, no suffix
|
|
or preceding directory components; also known as
|
|
.Ql Va * .
|
|
.It Va .TARGET
|
|
The name of the target; also known as
|
|
.Ql Va @ .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The shorter forms
|
|
.Ql Va @ ,
|
|
.Ql Va ? ,
|
|
.Ql Va \&>
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql Va *
|
|
are permitted for backward
|
|
compatibility with historical makefiles and are not recommended.
|
|
The six variables
|
|
.Ql Va "@F" ,
|
|
.Ql Va "@D" ,
|
|
.Ql Va "<F" ,
|
|
.Ql Va "<D" ,
|
|
.Ql Va "*F"
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql Va "*D"
|
|
are
|
|
permitted for compatibility with
|
|
.At V
|
|
makefiles and are not recommended.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Four of the local variables may be used in sources on dependency lines
|
|
because they expand to the proper value for each target on the line.
|
|
These variables are
|
|
.Ql Va .TARGET ,
|
|
.Ql Va .PREFIX ,
|
|
.Ql Va .ARCHIVE ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql Va .MEMBER .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In addition,
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
sets or knows about the following variables:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width MAKEFLAGS
|
|
.It Va \&$
|
|
A single dollar sign
|
|
.Ql \&$ ,
|
|
i.e.
|
|
.Ql \&$$
|
|
expands to a single dollar
|
|
sign.
|
|
.It Va .MAKE
|
|
The name that
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
was executed with
|
|
.Pq Va argv Op 0
|
|
.It Va .CURDIR
|
|
A path to the directory where
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
was executed.
|
|
.It Ev MAKEFLAGS
|
|
The environment variable
|
|
.Ql Ev MAKEFLAGS
|
|
may contain anything that
|
|
may be specified on
|
|
.Nm make Ns 's
|
|
command line.
|
|
Anything specified on
|
|
.Nm make Ns 's
|
|
command line is appended to the
|
|
.Ql Ev MAKEFLAGS
|
|
variable which is then
|
|
entered into the environment for all programs which
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
executes.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Variable expansion may be modified to select or modify each word of the
|
|
variable (where a ``word'' is white-space delimited sequence of characters).
|
|
The general format of a variable expansion is as follows:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl {variable[:modifier[:...]]}
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Each modifier begins with a colon and one of the following
|
|
special characters.
|
|
The colon may be escaped with a backslash
|
|
.Pq Ql \e .
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Cm E\&
|
|
.It Cm E
|
|
Replaces each word in the variable with its suffix.
|
|
.It Cm H
|
|
Replaces each word in the variable with everything but the last component.
|
|
.It Cm M Ns Ar pattern
|
|
Select only those words that match the rest of the modifier.
|
|
The standard shell wildcard characters
|
|
.Pf ( Ql * ,
|
|
.Ql ? ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql Op )
|
|
may
|
|
be used.
|
|
The wildcard characters may be escaped with a backslash
|
|
.Pq Ql \e .
|
|
.It Cm N Ns Ar pattern
|
|
This is identical to
|
|
.Ql Cm M ,
|
|
but selects all words which do not match
|
|
the rest of the modifier.
|
|
.It Cm R
|
|
Replaces each word in the variable with everything but its suffix.
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.It Cm S No \&/ Ar old_pattern Xo
|
|
.No \&/ Ar new_pattern
|
|
.No \&/ Op Cm g
|
|
.Xc
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
Modify the first occurrence of
|
|
.Ar old_pattern
|
|
in each word to be replaced with
|
|
.Ar new_pattern .
|
|
If a
|
|
.Ql g
|
|
is appended to the last slash of the pattern, all occurrences
|
|
in each word are replaced.
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar old_pattern
|
|
begins with a carat
|
|
.Pq Ql ^ ,
|
|
.Ar old_pattern
|
|
is anchored at the beginning of each word.
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar old_pattern
|
|
ends with a dollar sign
|
|
.Pq Ql \&$ ,
|
|
it is anchored at the end of each word.
|
|
Inside
|
|
.Ar new_string ,
|
|
an ampersand
|
|
.Pq Ql &
|
|
is replaced by
|
|
.Ar old_pattern .
|
|
Any character may be used as a delimiter for the parts of the modifier
|
|
string.
|
|
The anchoring, ampersand and delimiter characters may be escaped with a
|
|
backslash
|
|
.Pq Ql \e .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Variable expansion occurs in the normal fashion inside both
|
|
.Ar old_string
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar new_string
|
|
with the single exception that a backslash is used to prevent the expansion
|
|
of a dollar sign
|
|
.Pq Ql \&$
|
|
not a preceding dollar sign as is usual.
|
|
.It Cm T
|
|
Replaces each word in the variable with its last component.
|
|
.It Ar old_string=new_string
|
|
This is the
|
|
.At V
|
|
style variable substitution.
|
|
It must be the last modifier specified.
|
|
.Ar Old_string
|
|
is anchored at the end of each word, so only suffixes or entire
|
|
words may be replaced.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh INCLUDE STATEMENTS AND CONDITIONALS
|
|
Makefile inclusion and conditional structures reminiscent of the C
|
|
programming language are provided in
|
|
.Nm make .
|
|
All such structures are identified by a line beginning with a single
|
|
dot
|
|
.Pq Ql \&.
|
|
character.
|
|
Files are included with either
|
|
.Ql .include <file>
|
|
or
|
|
.Ql .include \*qfile\*q .
|
|
Variables between the angle brackets or double quotes are expanded
|
|
to form the file name.
|
|
If angle brackets are used, the included makefile is expected to be in
|
|
the system makefile directory.
|
|
If double quotes are used, the including makefile's directory and any
|
|
directories specified using the
|
|
.Fl I
|
|
option are searched before the system
|
|
makefile directory.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Conditional expressions are also preceded by a single dot as the first
|
|
chraracter of a line.
|
|
The possible conditionals are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Ic .undef Ar variable
|
|
Un-define the specified global variable.
|
|
Only global variables may be un-defined.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Ic \&.if
|
|
.Oo \&! Oc Ns Ar expression
|
|
.Op Ar operator expression ...
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Test the value of an expression.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Ic .ifdef
|
|
.Oo \&! Oc Ns Ar variable
|
|
.Op Ar operator variable ...
|
|
.Xc
|

|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Ic .ifndef
|
|
.Oo \&! Oc Ns Ar variable
|
|
.Op Ar operator variable ...
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Test the value of an variable.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Ic .ifmake
|
|
.Oo \&! Oc Ns Ar target
|
|
.Op Ar operator target ...
|
|
.Xc
|
|

|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Ic .ifnmake
|
|
.Oo \&! Oc Ar target
|
|
.Op Ar operator target ...
|
|
.Xc
|

|
|
.It Ic .else
|
|
Reverse the sense of the last conditional.
|
|
.It Xo
|

.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar operator
|
|
may be any one of the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Cm XX"
|
|
.It Cm \&|\&|
|
|
logical OR
|
|
.It Cm \&&&
|
|
Logical
|
|
.Tn AND ;
|
|
of higher precedence than
|
|
.Dq .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
As in C,
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
will only evaluate a conditional as far as is necessary to determine
|
|
its value.
|
|
Parenthesis may be used to change the order of evaluation.
|
|
The boolean operator
|
|
.Ql Ic \&!
|
|
may be used to logically negate an entire
|
|
conditional.
|
|
It is of higher precendence than
|
|
.Ql Ic \&&& .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The value of
|
|
.Ar expression
|
|
may be any of the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ic defined
|
|
.It Ic defined
|
|
Takes a variable name as an argument and evaluates to true if the variable
|
|
has been defined.
|
|
.It Ic make
|
|
Takes a target name as an argument and evaluates to true if the target
|
|
was specified as part of
|
|
.Nm make Ns 's
|
|
command line or was declared the default target (either implicitly or
|
|
explicitly, see
|
|
.Va .MAIN )
|
|
before the line containing the conditional.
|
|
.It Ic empty
|
|
Takes a variable, with possible modifiers, and evalutes to true if
|
|
the expansion of the variable would result in an empty string.
|
|
.It Ic exists
|
|
Takes a file name as an argument and evaluates to true if the file exists.
|
|
The file is searched for on the system search path (see
|
|
.Va .PATH ) .
|
|
.It Ic target
|
|
Takes a target name as an argument and evaluates to true if the target
|
|
has been defined.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Ar Expression
|
|
may also be an arithmetic or string comparison, with the left-hand side
|
|
being a variable expansion.
|
|
The standard C relational operators are all supported, and the usual
|
|
number/base conversion is performed.
|
|
Note, octal numbers are not supported.
|
|
If the righthand value of a
|
|
.Ql Ic ==
|
|
or
|
|
.Ql Ic "!="
|
|
operator begins with a
|
|
quotation mark
|
|
.Pq Ql \*q
|
|
a string comparison is done between the expanded
|
|
variable and the text between the quotation marks.
|
|
If no relational operator is given, it is assumed that the expanded
|
|
variable is being compared against 0.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
is evaluating one of these conditional expression, and it encounters
|
|
a word it doesn't recognize, either the ``make'' or ``defined''
|
|
expression is applied to it, depending on the form of the conditional.
|
|
If the form is
|
|
.Ql Ic .ifdef
|
|
or
|
|
.Ql Ic .ifndef ,
|
|
the ``defined'' expression
|
|
is applied.
|
|
Similarly, if the form is
|
|
.Ql Ic .ifmake
|
|
or
|
|
.Ql Ic .ifnmake , the ``make''
|
|
expression is applied.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the conditional evaluates to true the parsing of the makefile continues
|
|
as before.
|
|
If it evaluates to false, the following lines are skipped.
|
|
In both cases this continues until a
|
|
.Ql Ic .else
|
|
or
|
|
.Ql Ic .endif
|
|
is found.
|
|
.Sh COMMENTS
|
|
Comments begin with a hash
|
|
.Pq Ql \&#
|
|
character, anywhere but in a shell
|
|
command line, and continue to the end of the line.
|
|
.Sh SPECIAL SOURCES
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ic .IGNORE
|
|
.It Ic .IGNORE
|
|
Ignore any errors from the commands associated with this target, exactly
|
|
as if they all were preceded by a dash
|
|
.Pq Ql \- .
|
|
.It Ic .MAKE
|
|
Execute the commands associated with this target even if the
|
|
.Fl n
|
|
or
|
|
.Fl t
|
|
options were specified.
|
|
Normally used to mark recursive
|
|
.Nm make Ns 's .
|
|
.It Ic .NOTMAIN
|
|
Normally
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
selects the first target it encounters as the default target to be built
|
|
if no target was specified.
|
|
This source prevents this target from being selected.
|
|
.It Ic .OPTIONAL
|
|
If a target is marked with this attribute and
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
can't figure out how to create it, it will ignore this fact and assume
|
|
the file isn't needed or already exists.
|
|
.It Ic .PRECIOUS
|
|
When
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
is interrupted, it removes any partially made targets.
|
|
This source prevents the target from being removed.
|
|
.It Ic .SILENT
|
|
Do not echo any of the commands associated with this target, exactly
|
|
as if they all were preceded by an at sign
|
|
.Pq Ql @ .
|
|
.It Ic .USE
|
|
Turn the target into
|
|
.Nm make Ns 's .
|
|
version of a macro.
|
|
When the target is used as a source for another target, the other target
|
|
acquires the commands, sources, and attributes (except for
|
|
.Ic .USE )
|
|
of the
|
|
source.
|
|
If the target already has commands, the
|
|
.Ic .USE
|
|
target's commands are appended
|
|
to them.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh "SPECIAL TARGETS"
|
|
Special targets may not be included with other targets, i.e. they must be
|
|
the only target specified.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ic .BEGIN
|
|
.It Ic .BEGIN
|
|
Any command lines attached to this target are executed before anything
|
|
else is done.
|
|
.It Ic .DEFAULT
|
|
This is sort of a
|
|
.Ic .USE
|
|
rule for any target (that was used only as a
|
|
source) that
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
can't figure out any other way to create.
|
|
Only the shell script is used.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ic .IMPSRC
|
|
variable of a target that inherits
|
|
.Ic .DEFAULT Ns 's
|
|
commands is set
|
|
to the target's own name.
|
|
.It Ic .END
|
|
Any command lines attached to this target are executed after everything
|
|
else is done.
|
|
.It Ic .IGNORE
|
|
Mark each of the sources with the
|
|
.Ic .IGNORE
|
|
attribute.
|
|
If no sources are specified, this is the equivalent of specifying the
|
|
.Fl i
|
|
option.
|
|
.It Ic .INTERRUPT
|
|
If
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
is interrupted, the commands for this target will be executed.
|
|
.It Ic .MAIN
|
|
If no target is specified when
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
is invoked, this target will be built.
|
|
.It Ic .MAKEFLAGS
|
|
This target provides a way to specify flags for
|
|
.Nm make
|
|
when the makefile is used.
|
|
The flags are as if typed to the shell, though the
|
|
.Fl f
|
|
option will have
|
|
no effect.
|
|
.It Ic .PATH
|
|
The sources are directories which are to be searched for files not
|
|
found in the current directory.
|
|
If no sources are specified, any previously specified directories are
|
|
deleted.
|
|
.It Ic .PRECIOUS
|
|
Apply the
|
|
.Ic .PRECIOUS
|
|
attribute to any specified sources.
|
|
If no sources are specified, the
|
|
.Ic .PRECIOUS
|
|
attribute is applied to every
|
|
target in the file.
|
|
.It Ic .SILENT
|
|
Apply the
|
|
.Ic .SILENT
|
|
attribute to any specified sources.
|
|
If no sources are specified, the
|
|
.Ic .SILENT
|
|
attribute is applied to every
|
|
command in the file.
|
|
.It Ic .SUFFIXES
|
|
Each source specifies a suffix to
|
|
.Nm make .
|
|
If no sources are specified, any previous specifies suffices are deleted.
|
|
.Sh ENVIRONMENT
|
|
.Nm Make
|
|
utilizes the following environment variables, if they exist:
|
|
.Ev MAKE ,
|
|
.Ev MAKEFLAGS
|
|
and
|
|
.Ev MAKEOBJDIR .
