demake

== Develop, Decorate and manage Dependencies for C (GNU) Makefiles easily with a Ruby script. Install using the Ruby Gem: > gem install demake To create an example with multiple sample applications: > demake example This will create a directory named example containing the example. To create an example with a single sample application: > demake oreo This will create a directory named oreo containing the example. It requires a demake directory and application file containing the application names followed by depencencies separated by spaces and with a new line to indicate a different application. Something like (from the example): > mkdir demake > echo "hello string" > demake/applications > echo "goodbye string" >> demake/applications > demake For customization, optionally include (see example): demake/settings.rb, demake/test-target.rb, demake/install-target.rb, demake/license The output of the command by itself is a (GNU style) file named Makefile: > demake You can also clone from git: > git clone https://github.com/MinaswanNakamoto/demake.git > chmod +x demake/bin/demake > cd demake > bin/demake example > cd example ; make ; make build ; make test If you have an existing C application and you want to generate a Makefile for it, you might try the gen_application shell script. > ./gen_application myapp
