| |
| <p>For the purpose of this tutorial, you were instructed to create a C++ Project which requires you to create a makefile.</p> |
| |
| <p>To create a makefile:</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>In the <strong>Project Explorer</strong> view, right-click the <strong>HelloWorld</strong> project |
| folder and select <strong>New > File</strong>.</li> |
| <li>In the <strong>File name</strong> box, type <strong>makefile</strong>.</li> |
| <li>Click <strong>Finish</strong>.</li> |
| <li>Type the gnu make instructions below in the editor. Lines are |
| indented with tab characters, not with spaces. |
| |
| <blockquote> |
| <p> |
| <br> |
| all: hello.exe<br> |
| <br> |
| clean:<br> |
| rm main.o hello.exe<br> |
| <br> |
| hello.exe: main.o<br> |
| g++ -g -o hello main.o<br> |
| <br> |
| main.o:<br> |
| g++ -c -g main.cpp<br> |
| </p> |
| </blockquote> |
| </li> |
| <li>Click <strong>File > |
| Save</strong>.</li></ol> |
| |
| <p>Your new makefile, along with your main.cpp file are |
| displayed in the Project Explorer view. Your project now |
| contains main.cpp and makefile. You can now build your HelloWorld project.</p> |
