When I comment out the explicit rule for MapFile.o I get a "no rule to build error for it" yet the implicit rule clearly works for Exception.o. Any idea what could be the issue? Hope it is not something simple that I am missing having been staring at it for a few. Thanks in advance.

The filenames are case-sensitive; in some places you have MapFile.cpp and MapFile.h, but elsewhere you have MapFIle.o (with a capital I) and MapFIle.cpp and so on.

As showed in first screenshot, my ideal AVR project structure is that:
*.o, *.elf and *.hex files are in build folder.
PomoScheler.c and pinDefines.h as main files are in root folder, while other *.c and *.h are in src folder.
But *.o are always generated at the same folder as *.c like showed in second screenshot, no matter how.
(I attached my endeavors and whole Makefile below the screenshots)
Firstly, I tried build/ before $#, in vain. The terminal still the same.
# My first Makefile endeavor
%.o: %.c $(HEADERS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH) -c $< -o build/$#
# Terminal command generated by Makefile (Look at the end: *.o path still same as *.c)

Secondly, I tried to add mv $# build to explicitly move it to build folder. But nothing happened. Even echo are not displayed in Terminal.
# My second Makefile endeavor
%.o: %.c $(HEADERS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH) -c $< -o $#
mv $# build
echo ---------Hello---------
Thirdly, I delete $(HEADERS) and replace $< with $^ just to have a try. The mv is executed. But it cannot find *.o file this time even though I have VPATH = src:build in Makefile.
# My third Makefile endeavor
%.o: %.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH) -c $^ -o $#
mv $# build
# Terminal error

And my whole Makefile is here. Please help me out.

This is clearly not right:
OBJECTS = $(SOURCES:.c=.o)
because the object files you want to create are not foo.o etc. which is what this will expand to; the object files are build/foo.o etc. So this has to be:
OBJECTS = $(patsubst %.c,build/%.o)
All of your attempts to trick make by telling it your recipe will build one target (foo.o) but actually building a totally different target (build/foo.o) are doomed to fail, regardless of whether you have the compiler do it directly, you use mv, or any other method.
If you just tell make what your recipe actually does, you will have a much simpler time of it:
build/%.o: %.c
mkdir -p $(#D)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH) -c $^ -o $#
Probably you have similar issues with the other rules that you want to put into other directories.
You can't do this by trying to hide it from make. Make has to know where the files actually are.
BTW, VPATH cannot help here. VPATH is for finding source files, it cannot be used for finding generated files. So you could use VPATH to find your .c files but not your .o files.
I can't figure out why my Makefile relinks every time. Could someone explain to me?
Here is my Makefile :
SRCS = ${wildcard ./srcs/*.c}
OBJS = ${SRCS:.c=.o}
INCL = includes
CC = gcc
CFLAGS = -Wall -Wextra -Werror
NAME = BSQ
.c.o :
${CC} -I ${INCL} ${CFLAGS} -c $< -o ${<:.c=.o}
all : ${OBJS}
${CC} -o ${NAME} ${OBJS}
clean :
rm -f ${OBJS}
fclean : clean
rm -f ${NAME}
re : fclean all
Because the all target doesn't create a file named all, so make doesn't know that it has already been done.
You should make all depend on ${NAME}, and then add a target for ${NAME} that performs the linking.
all: ${NAME}
${NAME}: ${OBJS}
${CC} -o $# $^
My Makefile is relinking and I can't find why.
I'm not sure why malloc assume that $(NAME) have to be executed. Is the $(SRC:.c=.o) macro changing the timestamps of the .o files or something like that ?
CC = gcc
NAME = app
#
CFLAGS = -Wall -Werror -Wextra -pedantic -pedantic-errors
INCLUDES = -I ./includes
#
DIRSRC = srcs/
DIROBJ = objs/
SRC += main.c
SRC += malloc.c
OBJ = $(SRC:.c=.o)
DIROBJS = $(addprefix $(DIROBJ), $(OBJ))
#
LIBS_PATH = ./libs
LIBFT_PATH = $(LIBS_PATH)/libft
LIBFT_INCLUDES = -I $(LIBFT_PATH)
LIBFT = -L $(LIBFT_PATH) -lft
#
COMPILE = $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(INCLUDES)
#
all: $(NAME)
$(NAME): configure libs $(DIROBJS)
$(COMPILE) $(LIBFT) $(DIROBJS) -o $(NAME)
$(DIROBJ)%.o: $(DIRSRC)%.c
#echo Compiling: $<
$(COMPILE) $(LIBS_INCLUDES) -c $< -o $#
clean:
#rm -rf $(DIROBJ)
fclean: clean
#rm -rf $(NAME)
re: fclean all
#
configure:
#mkdir -p $(DIROBJ)
#
libs:
#$(MAKE) -C $(LIBS)
.PHONY: all configure clean fclean re libs cleanlibs fcleanlibs relibs
It always relink because the configure rule will always run. So Make believes one of the dependencies changed, and it reevaluates the rule.
The way I would solve this would be to get rid of the configure rule and to move the #mkdir -p $(DIROBJS) in the rule that builds your object files:
$(DIROBJ)%.o: $(DIRSRC)%.c
#mkdir -p $(DIROBJS)
#echo Compiling: $<
$(COMPILE) $(LIBS_INCLUDES) -c $< -o $#
There might be more reasons (that could be related to the library you're also building), I don't know. Let us know if this solves it entirely.
#rtur's answer works, however I should mention another alternative. You could do:
$(DIROBJ):
mkdir $#
$(DIROBJ)/%.o: $(DIRSRC)/%.c | $(DIROBJ)
#echo Compiling: $<
$(COMPILE) $(LIBS_INCLUDES) -c $< -o $#
That way, it only makes the directory if it doesn't already exist. One thing to notice is the | symbol. This makes $(DIROBJ) an order-only prerequisite. This means if it's newer than the target, it will not cause the the target to rebuild. This is really important for directories, as the timestamp of a directory is the date the last item in it was added/deleted/modified, and your target would always be out of date without that symbol. This is considered cleaner, as you have less invocations of mkdir this way.
Also, as a style note, you usually, you don't include the trailing / at the end of directory names. $(OBJ_DIR)/%.o looks nicer than $(OBJ_DIR)%.o. Of course, that could just be my opinion :-)
I'm 42 network student.
I had this problem quite often as well.
Moving the .o files into a folder usually causes the Makefile to relink since that directory is not a 'dependency'.
Here's an example:
NAME = lib.a
INC = lib.h
FLAGS = -Wall -Wextra -Werror
LIB = function1.c function2.c function3.c function4.c
OBJ = $(SRC:%.c=%.o)
all: $(NAME) clear
$(NAME): $(OBJ)
#$(AR) rcs $# $^
#ranlib $(NAME)
%.o: %.c
#$(CC) $(FLAGS) -I $(INC) -c $< -o $#
clear:
#mkdir -p obj
#mv $(OBJ) obj
clean:
#$(RM) $(OBJ)
fclean: clean
#$(RM) $(NAME)
re: fclean all
The existence $(OBJ) are going to be checked when making $(NAME), not the 'obj' folder.
Solution:
NAME = lib.a
INC = lib.h
FLAGS = -Wall -Wextra -Werror
SRC = function1.c function2.c function3.c function4.c
DIR_OBJ = obj/
OBJ = $(SRC:%.c=$(DIR_OBJ)%.o)
all: $(NAME)
$(NAME): $(OBJ)
#$(AR) rcs $# $^
#ranlib $(NAME)
$(DIR_OBJ)%.o:%.c
#mkdir -p $(dir $#)
#$(CC) $(FLAGS) -I $(INC) -c $< -o $#
clean:
#$(RM) -rf $(DIR_OBJ)
fclean: clean
#$(RM) $(NAME)
re: fclean all
I think I covered it with this example, let me know if I missed a detail.
Good luck with your projects!
I have the following directory structure:
root-----Makefile
|-----src #all source files here.
|-----obj #all object files here.
|-----bin #the final target.
The contents of Makefile is given below:
TARGET = exec
CC = gcc
CFLAGS = -g -I.
LINKER = gcc -o
LFLAGS = -I. -lm -lpthread
BINDIR = bin
OBJDIR = obj
SRCDIR = src
INTERFACE = interface
STD = -std=c99
PROGRAMSOURCES := $(wildcard $(SRCDIR)/*.c)
PROGRAMINTERFACE:= $(wildcard $(INTERFACE)/*.h)
OBJECTS := $(PROGRAMSOURCES:$(SRCDIR)/%.c=$(OBJDIR)/%.o)
$(BINDIR)/$(TARGET) : $(OBJECTS)
$(LINKER) $# $(LFLAGS) $(OBJECTS) $(STD)
#pull the dependencies to the .o files
-include $(OBJECTS:.o=.d)
$(OBJECTS) : $(OBJDIR)/%.o :$(SRCDIR)/%.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $< -o $# $(STD)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -MM $< > $*.d
#mv -f $*.d $*.d.tmp
#sed -e 's|.*:|$(OBJDIR)/$*.o:|' < $*.d.tmp > $*.d
#sed -e 's/.*://' -e 's/\\$$//' < $*.d.tmp | fmt -1 | \
sed -e 's/^ *//' -e 's/$$/:/' >> $*.d`
#rm -f $*.d.tmp`
.PHONY : run
run :`
./$(BINDIR)/$(TARGET) ${TYPE} ${INP_FILE}
I have used the tutorial here have been modified to suit the corresponding directory structure. But something has got wrong in the modification and I cannot understand what. The dependency list generated in the .d files is not taken into account i.e. if I change a .h the rules are not compiling.
You appear to be producing the dependency files in root/, but looking for them in obj/.
Try changing this:
-include $(OBJECTS:.o=.d)
to this:
-include *.d
There are other improvements you can make, once the makefile is working.
EDIT: further improvements
1) The choice of where to put the dependency files is mainly arbitrary, but if we put them in obj/, we can simplify the $(OBJECTS) rule quite a lot:
-include $(OBJDIR)/*.d
$(OBJECTS): $(OBJDIR)/%.o :$(SRCDIR)/%.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -MMD -MP -c $< -o $# $(STD)
2) PROGRAMINTERFACE and INTERFACE aren't used, so we can remove them.
3) Putting -o in LINKER like that is dangerous. And don't forget the automatic variable $^:
LINKER = gcc
$(BINDIR)/$(TARGET) : $(OBJECTS)
$(LINKER) $# $(LFLAGS) $^ $(STD)
4) It would be wise to give run a prerequisite:
run: $(BINDIR)/$(TARGET)
./$< ${TYPE} ${INP_FILE}
I have a gnu makefile template that has served me well, but when I try to specify a compiler other than the first g++ in my path, it fails.
Here's the template.
CXX = g++
CXXFLAGS = $(INC) $(LIB) -Wall
INC = -I./ -I/usr/local/include
LIB = -L/usr/local/lib
SRCS = \
blah1.cpp
blah2.cpp
OBJS = $(SRCS:.cpp=.o)
DEPS = $(SRCS:.cpp=.d)
PROG = myprog
$(PROG): $(OBJS)
$(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) -o $# $(OBJS)
%.d: %.cpp
#set -e; rm -f $#; \
$(CXX) -MM $(CXXFLAGS) $< > $#.$$$$; \
sed 's,\($*\)\.o[ :]*,\1.o $# : ,g' < $#.$$$$ > $#; \
rm -f $#.$$$$
debug: CXXFLAGS += -O0 -DDEBUG -ggdb
debug: $(PROG)
-include $(DEPS)
.PHONY: clean
clean:
rm -f $(DEPS) $(OBJS) $(PROG)
When I change the compiler from g++ to something like /usr/local/bin/g++46, it still compiles with g++ (/usr/bin/g++ to be exact). Why?
P.S. Any criticisms with the template are welcome. I'm not very comfortable with gnu make; I just crammed and searched the web for a day to come up with this.
You haven't specified your own rule for how to build object files, so Make uses the default implicit rule, which is:
$(CXX) $(CPPFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS) -c
Note $(CXX), not $(CC), which specifies the default C compiler.
