How to write a makefile to compile C project ?

[Altera_Forum]

Hi all ! 

 I&#39;m using Cyclone 1c12 eval, Microtronix uCLinux 1.4, NIOS II IDE 5.0  I have a C project (which will run on uCLinux) as following:  header files:  libA.h libB.h . . .  c files:   a.c b.c c.c . . . main.c // <-- this file contains function main()    How can I write a makefile ( makefile & rule.mak ) for above project or edit the Microtronix template ?   Thank you  OneNet

Hi OneNet, 

 > How can I write a makefile ( makefile & rule.mak ) for above project  First read the Linux Reference Guide section, "Creating a Makefile" ... basically, you just need to include the Rules.mak and pretty much do what you would always do. E.g.:TARGET  = foo.exe CSRC    =  foo.c bar.c OBJS    = $(CSRC:.c=.o)                  # All object files LDFLAGS += # ################################################################# .PHONY: default install clean realclean distclean depend default: deps $(TARGET) install:     cp -pf $(TARGET) $(BIN_INSTALL) clean:     rm -rf $(OBJS) core distclean: clean     rm -f deps     rm -rf $(TARGET) depend: deps sinclude deps include Rules.mak Regards, --Scott

Sorry, I must have fat fingered the following (missing from above): 

deps: Makefile $(CSRC)     $(CC) -M $(CFLAGS) $(CSRC) > deps  --Scott
