I'm pretty much a novice when it comes to coding.
I'm trying to visualize a game in C++ using Matlab.
The makefile was partially given as part of the exercise.
I tried fixing the problem by using this: https://de.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_external/custom-linking-to-required-api-libraries.html
The code works but when trying to implement the "GUI" this error comes up:
dyld[45987]: Library not loaded: #rpath/libMatlabEngine.dylib
Reason: tried: '/Applications/MATLAB_R2020a.app/bin/maci64/libMatlabEngine.dylib' (no such file), '/Applications/MATLAB_R2020a.app/sys/os/maci64/libMatlabEngine.dylib' (no such file), '/libMatlabEngine.dylib' (no such file), '/usr/local/lib/libMatlabEngine.dylib' (no such file), '/usr/lib/libMatlabEngine.dylib' (no such file)

I have the following make file:
INC_PATH=-I/home/dev_tools/apr/include/apr-1
LIB_PATH=-L/home/dev_tools/apr/lib
LIBS=-lapr-1 -laprutil-1
RUNTIME_PATH=-Wl,-rpath,/home/dev_tools/apr/lib
CC=gcc
CFLAGS=-Wall -Wextra -g -m32 -O2 -D_DEBUG -D_THREAD_SAFE -D_REENTRANT -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE $(INC_PATH)
SOURCES=$(wildcard src/*.c)
OBJECTS=$(patsubst %.c, %.o, $(SOURCES))
EXECUTABLE=bin/to
all: build $(EXECUTABLE)
$(EXECUTABLE): $(OBJECTS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o $# $(RUNTIME_PATH) $(OBJECTS) $(LIB_PATH) $(LIBS)
$(OBJECTS): $(SOURCES)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $(SOURCES) $(LIB_PATH) $(LIBS)
build:
#mkdir -p bin
clean:
rm -rf $(EXECUTABLE) $(OBJECTS) bin
find . -name "*~" -exec rm {} \;
find . -name "*.o" -exec rm {} \;
My directory structure is like this project/src project/bin. My Makefile is in the project (root) folder, and all my *.h and *.c are in the src directory. Currently I have only one source file called timeout.c
I get this error:
gcc: error: src/timeout.o: No such file or directory
I have used this to get all the source files:
SOURCES=$(wildcard src/*.c)
And the object files:
OBJECTS=$(patsubst %.c, %.o, $(SOURCES))
However, the make seems to create the object file in the project root folder where the Makefile is. Should it not put it in the src directory?
You have two problems in this rule (well, three):
$(OBJECTS): $(SOURCES)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $(SOURCES) $(LIB_PATH) $(LIBS)
You haven't noticed yet, but the rule makes each object dependent on all sources, and tries to build that way. Not a problem as long as you have only one source. Easy to fix with a static pattern rule and an automatic variable:
$(OBJECTS): src/%.o : src/%.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $< $(LIB_PATH) $(LIBS)
Also, the command ("$(CC)...") doesn't specify an output file name, so gcc will infer it from the source file name; if you give it src/timeout.c, it will produce timeout.o (in the working directory, project/). So you should specify the desired path to the output file. Easy to do with another automatic variable:
$(OBJECTS): src/%.o : src/%.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $< $(LIB_PATH) $(LIBS) -o $#
Use gcc's -o option to write the output file to a particular location. For instance, you could say:
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $(SOURCES) $(LIB_PATH) $(LIBS) -o $(OBJECTS)
Unfortunately, there's a problem with this line: if there is more than one source file in $(SOURCES), it won't work, since $(OBJECTS) will also contain multiple file names, and the -o option only binds to the first argument.
A way to compile each file in a list of source code files is to use implicit rules. In gmake, you would write:
$(EXECUTABLE): $(OBJECTS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o $# $(RUNTIME_PATH) $(OBJECTS) $(LIB_PATH) $(LIBS)
%.o : %.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $< -o $#
where $< is replaced with name of the input file and $# is replaced with the name out the output file.
I solved this request and here is my Makefile and directory tree.
PROJECT := main.exe
DIR_SRC += .
DIR_SRC += ./src
DIR_INC += -lpthread
DIR_INC += -I./inc
DIR_INC += $(addprefix -I, $(DIR_SRC))
SRC_C += $(wildcard $(addsuffix /*.c, $(DIR_SRC)))
#OBJ := $(filter %.o, $(SRC_C:.c=.o))
OBJ := $(patsubst %.c, %.o, $(SRC_C))
EXE := $(PROJECT)
CC_PREFIX :=
CC := $(CC_PREFIX)gcc
CFLAG =
CLIB = -L .
.PHONY:all
all:$(OBJ) $(EXE)
%.o: %.c
$(CC) $(CFLAG) $(DIR_INC) -c $< -o $#
$(EXE): $(OBJ)
$(CC) $(CFLAG) $(CLIB) $(OBJ) -o $#
clean:
rm -r $(EXE) $(OBJ)
See my directory tree:
I know the title is quite ambiguous but I just don't know how to describe my problem concisely. Please edit that if you want.
Currently my makefile is like the following:
CC = g++
CFLAGS = -Wall -g
TARGET = foobar
SRC_FILES = foo.cpp bar.cpp main.cpp
OBJ_FILES := $(SRC_FILES:.cpp=.o)
$(TARGET): $(OBJ_FILES)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $^ -o $#
%.o: %.cpp %.h
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $<
clean:
rm -rf *.o $(TARGET)
The problem is that this structure requires main.cpp to have a main.h header file, which I don't really have. How can I handle this nicely?
GCC (and probably Clang) can build a list of dependencies for you; This way, you can simply make your object files from their source (cpp) file:
depend: .depend
.depend: $(SRC_FILES)
rm -f ./.depend
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -MM $^ -MF ./.depend;
include .depend
%.o: %.cpp
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $<
You might also find interest in the makedepend tool.
I am learning to create a makefile. My folder structure looks like this..
Project
bin //this is where the executable "e" is kept
e
obj //this is where the obj files generated are kept
Node.o
Node1.o
src //this is where .cpp files resides
Folder
Node.cpp
Folder2
Node1.cpp
include //this is where .hhp files resides
Folder
Node.hpp
Folder2
Node1.hpp
makefile
I am using Ubuntu 12.04 and trying to compile it using g++. The makefile resides in the project folder along with folders: src, include, obj and bin
My makefile looks like this
CC = g++
DEBUG = -g
CFLAGS = -Wall -c $(DEBUG)
LFLAGS = -Wall $(DEBUG)
TARGET = bin/
OBJ = obj/
INCLUDE = include/
SRC = src/
SOURCES=$(wildcard $(SRC)**/*.cpp $(SRC)*.cpp)
HEADERS=$(wildcard include/**/*.hpp include/*.hpp)
OBJECTS=$(patsubst %.cpp,$(OBJ)%.o,$(notdir $(SOURCES)))
All : $(TARGET)e
$(TARGET)e : make_dir $(OBJECTS)
$(CC) $(LFLAGS) $(OBJECTS) -o $#
$(OBJ)Node.o : $(SRC)Folder/Node.cpp $(HEADERS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -I$(INCLUDE) $< -o $#
$(OBJ)Node1.o : $(SRC)Folder2/Node1.cpp $(HEADERS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -I$(INCLUDE) $< -o $#
make_dir:
mkdir -p obj bin
clean :
-rm -rf bin
-rm -rf obj
-rm -f e *.o *~
This piece of code runs just fine but what I would like to do is to replace the below code snippets
$(OBJ)Node.o : $(SRC)Folder/Node.cpp $(HEADERS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -I$(INCLUDE) $< -o $#
$(OBJ)Node1.o : $(SRC)Folder2/Node1.cpp $(HEADERS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -I$(INCLUDE) $< -o $#
with some thing more like
%.o : %.cpp $(HEADERS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -I$(INCLUDE) $< -o $#
Something that generalizes the whole feeding and mapping. In other words, automate the makefile in a way I shouldn't worry or edit until the hierarchy is disturbed.
$(OBJ)/%.o : $(SRC)Folder/%.cpp $(HEADERS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -I$(INCLUDE) $< -o $#
I have the following makefile:
CC=g++
CCOPTS=-Wall -Wextra -g
OBJS = manager.o tcpcon.o
TARGETS = manager
.PHONY: all clean
$(TARGETS) : $(OBJS)
$(CC) -o $# $^ $(CFLAGS) $(LIBS)
all: $(TARGETS) $(OBJS)
clean:
rm -f $(TARGETS) $(OBJS)
%: %.cpp
$(CC) $(CCOPTS) -o $# $<
Is there a way I can make my .o and bin files be built into a directory called build? I tried going through some tutorials, but I guess I just don't fully understand makefiles..
Don't feel too bad; I'm not sure anyone fully understands makefiles.
BUILD_DIR = build
OBJS = $(BUILD_DIR)/manager.o $(BUILD_DIR)/tcpcon.o
TARGETS = $(BUILD_DIR)/manager
...
$(BUILD_DIR)/%.o: %.cpp
$(CC) -c $(CCOPTS) -o $# $<
