Make Description

Make is a Perl module for processing makefiles. Make is a Perl module for processing makefiles.SYNOPSIS require Make; my $make = Make->new(...); $make->parse($file); $make->Script(@ARGV) $make->Make(@ARGV) $make->Print(@ARGV) my $targ = $make->Target($name); $targ->colon(,); $targ->dolon(,); my @depends = $targ->colon->depend; my @commands = $targ->colon->command;Make->new creates an object if new(Makefile => $file) is specified then it is parsed. If not the usual makefile Makefile sequence is used. (If GNU => 1 is passed to new then GNUmakefile is looked for first.)$make->Make(target...) 'makes' the target(s) specified (or the first 'real' target in the makefile).$make->Print can be used to 'print' to current select'ed stream a form of the makefile with all variables expanded.$make->Script(target...) can be used to 'print' to current select'ed stream the equivalent bourne shell script that a make would perform i.e. the output of make -n.There are other methods (used by parse) which can be used to add and manipulate targets and their dependants. There is a hierarchy of classes which is still evolving. These classes and their methods will be documented when they are a little more stable.The syntax of makefile accepted is reasonably generic, but I have not re-read any documentation yet, rather I have implemented my own mental model of how make works (then fixed it...).In addition to traditional .c.o : $(CC) -c ...GNU make's 'pattern' rules e.g. %.o : %.c $(CC) -c ...Likewise a subset of GNU makes $(function arg...) syntax is supported.Via pmake Make has built perl/Tk from the MakeMaker generated Makefiles...
