To specify a number of files with various paths and to save this information for multiple compilations, you can use a makefile.
On Linux and Mac OS systems:
To use a makefile to compile your input files, make sure that /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin are in your path.
If you use the C shell, you can edit your .cshrc file and add the following:
setenv PATH /usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:yourpath
Then you can compile as:
make -f yourmakefile
where -f is the make command option to specify a particular makefile.
On Windows systems:
To use a makefile to compile your input files, use the nmake command. For example, if your project is your_project.mak:
nmake /f your_project.mak FPP=ifort.exe LINK32=xilink.exe
The arguments of this nmake command are as follows:
|
/f |
A particular makefile. |
|
your_project.mak |
A makefile you want to use to generate object and executable files. |
|
FPP |
The compiler-invoking command you want to use. The name of this macro might be different for your makefile. This command invokes the preprocessor. |
|
LINK32 |
The linker you want to use. |
The nmake command creates object files (.obj) and executable files (.exe) specified in your_project.mak file.
