interesting makefile issue

hi,

We have a big project thats built on several platforms and has a huge
number of files - common and platform specific files.
It compiles well if compiled through command line by its makefile.
But we would like to use some c/c++ IDE like Dev-C++ to ease the
development process.
Problem is to add all the files spread all over the place to the Dev-C+
+ project, including the windows specific ones and excluding the
others.
Can I instruct Dev-C++ to do all this automatically for me by just
looking at the "all" target of the makefile ?
Can it be done through some other IDE ?
Or is there some makefile helper tool out there which can bridge the
gap between makefile and the IDE ?

Then you'd better ask in a group where Dev-C++ it topical. We discuss
the C++ language here, not tools.

I think in Dev-C++ the only way is to make several
project files, separate for every target.
Can it be done through some other IDE ?
Yes, Code::Blocks . http://codeblocks.org/

Hello world, I was just wondering why the clear-line in my Makefile does not work: main:main.o $(ADDOBJS) clear @g++ -o main $(LDFLAGS) $+ As far as I understood it, it should be possible to add multiple shell-commands.. Nevertheless, this does compile the files, but the 'clear' before does not work..

Hi All, Not strictly a C++ question but I am sure this is a common compile issue :-) I have a generic makefile (see below) that I would like update such that if I make some changes to a header file the associated cpp file is recompiled. I tried using constructs like: ..h.cpp: touch $<

I am a rookie of C++ and got so confused with the Makefile these days. Could anyone be so kind and give a little sample Makefile for the following particular example? Let's say I have the following files describing 4 classes (A, B, C1, C2) and a test program (test.cpp) which runs a test for classes C1 and C2. A.h A.cpp
