Hello,
I need to code some libraries for win and linux os and hope make or
somethink can help me to automate my build process. But how can I use
ONE makefile under both os - how can I detect the os in the make
script?
Has anybody an example?
Thanks 12 3466

Why would you need to? Just write the code portably.

Not all code are so portably - for example the code to read all files

Easy - just isolate the non-portable bits into separate modules, write
two versions with the same name (e.g. dirwalk.c), keep one of them on
the Win32 system and the other on the Linux system, and your makefile
stays the same on both systems. No worries.

Look at GNU Autoconf perhaps? But it may be overkill.

I don't think you can. Windows nmake is incompatible with *nix make.
When that came up for me I learned a bit of autoconf, enough to
generate a parametrized Linux Makefile and config.h . On the
Windows side I installed mingw and msys so I could run the configure
script. That gave me a Windows config.h and a Makefile. I can
build with msys but I need to target Visual Studio, so I ditched
the Makefile and kept just the config.h to put in a Studio project
generated from scratch (hate those wizards!).

Neither nmake nor make are part of the OS. Versions of gnu make exist
for multiple platforms.

Yup.

So what? Just use gnu make on both systems. It's available.

OK, if I use gno make how can I test the os where make running:
[pseudocode]
IF OS==WIN
use header-path from VC
ELSE IF OS==*NIX
user header-path from GCC
....
END-IF
[/pseudocode]

wxWidgets seems to have solved the problem with templates for
different platforms and make applications. QT has a platform specific
makefile generator with qmake from the .pro project file.
Unfortunately they're both for C++, thus OT here. However, you can
take a look at what wxWidgets is doing and, maybe, you can adapt that
to your needs. At the same time, both wxWidgets and QT are supposed to
be cross platform so they don't have to deal with including platform
specific safeguards in the make files.

It's "Gnu make" or "GNU make", not "gno make".

You are worrying too much, I think. Firstly, gcc and the MS compilers
will both have a sensible default search paths for include files.
Secondly, the compilers themselves will define preprocessor symbols
which you can ifdef on, in the source code, if needed. But read the
"#ifdef considered harmful" paper by Henry Spencer et al.
Thirdly, why not have two different makefiles for the different
environments? If what you do isn't complex, neither of them will be
complex, either. And you can always solve that later, if needed.
