Hi all,
For my project, I want to place the source files in a src directory
and the .h files in an include directory, but I can't get it to work. My
entire project now compiles using automake, I did a distribution, there
is only this little thing left to fix :)
So, in the Makefile.am of the src dir, I put something like:
----------------------
INCLUDES = $(PROJECT_ROOT_DIR)/include -I$(XERCES_DIR)/include ....
bin_PROGRAMS = dsiSecManager
dsiSecManager_SOURCES = dsiSMAlarmSubscriber.cpp
dsiSMWarningSubscriber.cpp \
dsiSMServiceSubscriber.cpp dsiSMParseHandlers.cpp
dsiSMDSPSubscriber.cpp dsiSecManager.cpp
dsiSecManager_LDFLAGS = $(LDFLAGS) -L$(DSI_ROOT_DIR)/bin
-L$(XERCES_DIR)/lib
dsiSecManager_LDADD = $(SM_OBJS) $(COS_OBJS) -lxerces-c -lPL -lc
$(LIBS)
#rule to compile the .o files
%.o: %.cpp %.h
$(CC) $(DEFINED) -c $(INCLUDES) $< -o $@
----------------------
so of course my sources are in $(PROJECT_ROOT_DIR)/src
Yes despite this, IF the .h files are not in the src dir, automake
doesn't follow the rules I wrote for the .o files and doesn't compile
with the $(DEFINED) flags, making it eventually crash.
I tried several things, for example
dsiSecManager_SOURCES = file1.cpp .$(PROJECT_ROOT_DIR)/include/file1.h
..
but it doesn't work.
I must be doing something stupid! Any ideas?
