.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B Makedepend
|
|
reads each
|
|
.I sourcefile
|
|
in sequence and parses it like a C-preprocessor,
|
|
processing all
|
|
.I #include,
|
|
.I #define,
|
|
.I #undef,
|
|
.I #ifdef,
|
|
.I #ifndef,
|
|
.I #endif,
|
|
.I #if
|
|
and
|
|
.I #else
|
|
directives so that it can correctly tell which
|
|
.I #include,
|
|
directives would be used in a compilation.
|
|
Any
|
|
.I #include,
|
|
directives can reference files having other
|
|
.I #include
|
|
directives, and parsing will occur in these files as well.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Every file that a
|
|
.I sourcefile
|
|
includes,
|
|
directly or indirectly,
|
|
is what
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
calls a "dependency".
|
|
These dependencies are then written to a
|
|
.I makefile
|
|
in such a way that
|
|
.B make(1)
|
|
will know which object files must be recompiled when a dependency has changed.
|
|
.PP
|
|
By default,
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
places its output in the file named
|
|
.I makefile
|
|
if it exists, otherwise
|
|
.I Makefile.
|
|
An alternate makefile may be specified with the
|
|
.B \-f
|
|
option.
|
|
It first searches the makefile for
|
|
the line
|
|
.sp
|
|
# DO NOT DELETE THIS LINE \-\^\- make depend depends on it.
|
|
.sp
|
|
or one provided with the
|
|
.B \-s
|
|
option,
|
|
as a delimiter for the dependency output.
|
|
If it finds it, it will delete everything
|
|
following this to the end of the makefile
|
|
and put the output after this line.
|
|
If it doesn't find it, the program
|
|
will append the string to the end of the makefile
|
|
and place the output following that.
|
|
For each
|
|
.I sourcefile
|
|
appearing on the command line,
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
puts lines in the makefile of the form
|
|
.sp
|
|
sourcefile.o:\0dfile .\|.\|.
|
|
.sp
|
|
Where "sourcefile.o" is the name from the command
|
|
line with its suffix replaced with ".o",
|
|
and "dfile" is a dependency discovered in a
|
|
.I #include
|
|
directive while parsing
|
|
.I sourcefile
|
|
or one of the files it included.
|
|
.SH EXAMPLE
|
|
Normally,
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
will be used in a makefile target so that typing "make depend" will
|
|
bring the dependencies up to date for the makefile.
|
|
For example,
|
|
.nf
|
|
SRCS\0=\0file1.c\0file2.c\0.\|.\|.
|
|
CFLAGS\0=\0\-O\0\-DHACK\0\-I\^.\^.\^/foobar\0\-xyz
|
|
depend:
|
|
makedepend\0\-\^\-\0$(CFLAGS)\0\-\^\-\0$(SRCS)
|
|
.fi
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.B Makedepend
|
|
will ignore any option that it does not understand so that you may use
|
|
the same arguments that you would for
|
|
.B cc(1).
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-Dname=def or \-Dname
|
|
Define.
|
|
This places a definition for
|
|
.I name
|
|
in
|
|
.B makedepend's
|
|
symbol table.
|
|
Without
|
|
.I =def
|
|
the symbol becomes defined as "1".
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-Iincludedir
|
|
Include directory.
|
|
This option tells
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
to prepend
|
|
.I includedir
|
|
to its list of directories to search when it encounters
|
|
a
|
|
.I #include
|
|
directive.
|
|
By default,
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
only searches the standard include directories (usually /usr/include
|
|
and possibly a compiler-dependent directory).
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-Yincludedir
|
|
Replace all of the standard include directories with the single specified
|
|
include directory; you can omit the
|
|
.I includedir
|
|
to simply prevent searching the standard include directories.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-a
|
|
Append the dependencies to the end of the file instead of replacing them.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-fmakefile
|
|
Filename.
|
|
This allows you to specify an alternate makefile in which
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
can place its output.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-oobjsuffix
|
|
Object file suffix.
|
|
Some systems may have object files whose suffix is something other
|
|
than ".o".
|
|
This option allows you to specify another suffix, such as
|
|
".b" with
|
|
.I -o.b
|
|
or ":obj"
|
|
with
|
|
.I -o:obj
|
|
and so forth.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-pobjprefix
|
|
Object file prefix.
|
|
The prefix is prepended to the name of the object file. This is
|
|
usually used to designate a different directory for the object file.
|
|
The default is the empty string.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-sstring
|
|
Starting string delimiter.
|
|
This option permits you to specify
|
|
a different string for
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
to look for in the makefile.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-wwidth
|
|
Line width.
|
|
Normally,
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
will ensure that every output line that it writes will be no wider than
|
|
78 characters for the sake of readability.
|
|
This option enables you to change this width.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-v
|
|
Verbose operation.
|
|
This option causes
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
to emit the list of files included by each input file on standard output.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B \-m
|
|
Warn about multiple inclusion.
|
|
This option causes
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
to produce a warning if any input file includes another file more than
|
|
once. In previous versions of
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
this was the default behavior; the default has been changed to better
|
|
match the behavior of the C compiler, which does not consider multiple
|
|
inclusion to be an error. This option is provided for backward
|
|
compatibility, and to aid in debugging problems related to multiple
|
|
inclusion.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B "\-\^\- options \-\^\-"
|
|
If
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
encounters a double hyphen (\-\^\-) in the argument list,
|
|
then any unrecognized argument following it
|
|
will be silently ignored; a second double hyphen terminates this
|
|
special treatment.
|
|
In this way,
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
can be made to safely ignore esoteric compiler arguments that might
|
|
normally be found in a CFLAGS
|
|
.B make
|
|
macro (see the
|
|
.B EXAMPLE
|
|
section above).
|
|
All options that
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
recognizes and appear between the pair of double hyphens
|
|
are processed normally.
|
|
.SH ALGORITHM
|
|
The approach used in this program enables it to run an order of magnitude
|
|
faster than any other "dependency generator" I have ever seen.
|
|
Central to this performance are two assumptions:
|
|
that all files compiled by a single
|
|
makefile will be compiled with roughly the same
|
|
.I -I
|
|
and
|
|
.I -D
|
|
options;
|
|
and that most files in a single directory will include largely the
|
|
same files.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Given these assumptions,
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
expects to be called once for each makefile, with
|
|
all source files that are maintained by the
|
|
makefile appearing on the command line.
|
|
It parses each source and include
|
|
file exactly once, maintaining an internal symbol table
|
|
for each.
|
|
Thus, the first file on the command line will take an amount of time
|
|
proportional to the amount of time that a normal C preprocessor takes.
|
|
But on subsequent files, if it encounter's an include file
|
|
that it has already parsed, it does not parse it again.
|
|
.PP
|
|
For example,
|
|
imagine you are compiling two files,
|
|
.I file1.c
|
|
and
|
|
.I file2.c,
|
|
they each include the header file
|
|
.I header.h,
|
|
and the file
|
|
.I header.h
|
|
in turn includes the files
|
|
.I def1.h
|
|
and
|
|
.I def2.h.
|
|
When you run the command
|
|
.sp
|
|
makedepend\0file1.c\0file2.c
|
|
.sp
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
will parse
|
|
.I file1.c
|
|
and consequently,
|
|
.I header.h
|
|
and then
|
|
.I def1.h
|
|
and
|
|
.I def2.h.
|
|
It then decides that the dependencies for this file are
|
|
.sp
|
|
file1.o:\0header.h\0def1.h\0def2.h
|
|
.sp
|
|
But when the program parses
|
|
.I file2.c
|
|
and discovers that it, too, includes
|
|
.I header.h,
|
|
it does not parse the file,
|
|
but simply adds
|
|
.I header.h,
|
|
.I def1.h
|
|
and
|
|
.I def2.h
|
|
to the list of dependencies for
|
|
.I file2.o.

|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
parses, but does not currently evaluate, the SVR4
|
|
#predicate(token-list) preprocessor expression;
|
|
such expressions are simply assumed to be true.
|
|
This may cause the wrong
|
|
.I #include
|
|
directives to be evaluated.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Imagine you are parsing two files,
|
|
say
|
|
.I file1.c
|
|
and
|
|
.I file2.c,
|
|
each includes the file
|
|
.I def.h.
|
|
The list of files that
|
|
.I def.h
|
|
includes might truly be different when
|
|
.I def.h
|
|
is included by
|
|
.I file1.c
|
|
than when it is included by
|
|
.I file2.c.
|
|
But once
|
|
.B makedepend
|
|
arrives at a list of dependencies for a file,
|
|
it is cast in concrete.
