如何在C中制作一个'makefile'

Question

I can't understand how I can produce a makefile for C code

I have the following .c file which normally I execute in the following manner:

gcc server.c -o server.out -lpthread

Once compiled, I run the .out file like this:

./server.out 4000

EDITED

I only need the make files to compile the program rather than running it too..

Answer 1

To start , you can create a project in eclipse and it would create a makefile for you. And then you can start going into the details about what all is added and this can trim out things you understand are not necessary.

Answer 2

https://github.com/ChrisLundquist/OpenCL-Compiler/blob/master/Makefile

Is an example of a simple make file.

Answer 3

If naming your executable file server will do for you, then just

LDLIBS=-lpthread
all: server

in a file called Makefile will do. The you can just type

make

to build it.

Ortherwise your Makefile should contain:

server.out: server.c
        gcc server.c -o server.out -lpthread

Except that it is a tabulation, not spaces before the text “ gcc ”.
