Makefile命令修改

Question

I would like to modify a Makefile command:

-rm -f $(OBJS)
-rm -f $(OBJS:.o=.mod)

The first removes all filenames.o and the second removes all filenames.mod. However, I would like to modify the second such that I get: mod_filenames.mod, ie, add the string "mod_".

I tried: -rm -f mod_$(OBJS:.o=.mod), but this only affected the first file in the list. But I'm jet guessing here. If anyone could suggest a wide site where such programming is explained, I would grateful.

Answer 1

GNU Make Manual .

There is also GNU Make Unleased book and GNU Make Standard Library .

See 8.3 Functions for File Names of the manual, you can use $(addprefix ...) (there are other ways) to get:

-rm -f $(OBJS)
-rm -f $(addprefix mod_,$(OBJS:.o=.mod))

It would be even better to use $(RM) (it's usually rm -f ):

-$(RM) $(OBJS)
-$(RM) $(addprefix mod_,$(OBJS:.o=.mod))

Answer 2

The GNU make manual describes all these things.

You can use patterns to get what you want:

-rm -f $(OBJS:%.o=mod_%.mod)

Writing $(OBJS:.o=.mod) is just shorthand for $(OBJS:%.o=%.mod) .
