1.4.11.2 Example Makefile

This makefile illustrates two Objective-C programs, simple and list that are to be generated.

     #
     # An example makefile
     #
     
     # Include the common variables defined by the Makefile Package
     include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/common.make
     
     # Build a simple Objective-C program
     OBJC_PROGRAM_NAME = simple list
     
     # Have the Objective-C runtime macro be defined for simple program
     simple_CPPFLAGS = $(RUNTIME_DEFINE)
     
     # The Objective-C files to compile for simple program
     simple_OBJC_FILES = simple.m
     
     # The Objective-C files to compile for list program
     list_OBJC_FILES = list.m linkedlist.m
     
     # The C files to compile for list program
     list_C_FILES = sort.c
     
     # Option include to set any additional variables
     -include GNUmakefile.preamble
     
     # Include in the rules for making Objective-C programs
     include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/objc.make
     
     # Option include to define any additional rules
     -include GNUmakefile.postamble

The simple Objective-C program only consists of single Objective-C file; while, the list Objective-C program consists of two Objective-C files and one C file. The simple Objective-C program use the variable defined by the Makefile Package, RUNTIME_DEFINE, to define a macro based upon the Objective-C Runtime library; presumably simple.m has code which is dependent upon the Objective-C Runtime.
