Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: externals Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Russell Bryant (russellbryant) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: ggee/makefile.sub cleanup and documentation
Initial Comment: I went looking around through externals. Specifically, I was interested in looking at [streamin~]/[streamout~]. I was also interested in how the externals were being built.
So, while looking at how these externals were built, I made some significant changes to this Makefile.
Changes:
ggee/signal/Makefile:
- Simply add the -f option to rm to avoid errors being sent to the console when files don't exist to get removed.
ggee/makefile.sub:
- Added comments to sections of the Makefile to describe what they are for
- Centralized the handling of CFLAGS and LDFLAGS to one spot so it is clear what is platform specific.
- Re-work the compilation and linking targets so that they use the new handling of the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS.

That's fine. Feel free to close this out. However, if the Makefile isn't really used, maybe it could just be removed. :)
In fact, I much prefer a centralized common build system. You say that it needs work. I don't mind helping out with that a bit, as I have (for better or worse) had a decent amount of experience with gnu make and autoconf.

That makefile isn't used much any more. Most of the time, things are built using the centralized Makefile in externals/Makefile. This centralized thing isn't the best system, it definitely needs work, but it works for the most part.
