GNU make meets Visual Studio (automagical make part 5)

Another automagical step!

I’ve split up the one makefile into more manageable pieces, organized for easier reference and better topical coherence. I’ve reinstated the support also for CMD.EXE (in addition to Cygwin/bash and Linux), and introduced the Visual Studio C/C++ compiler in parallel to GCC.
All with updated documentation as usual in a neat package. It’s not ready yet, but we’re getting there.

Take a look at http://www.bezem.de/i_make.html.

Happy making!

GNU make learns how to compile (automagical make part 4)

I’ve created the next instalment of my makefile template, available at http://www.bezem.de/i_make.html. In this instalment, I show how to call the compiler (for now, only GCC using cygwin), how the ‘vpath’ is working, provide a simple ‘clean’ target, and show a few tricks.

Happy making!
