makefile

hello

I am not sure if i am posting my query in the rt forum section.

Ok ..i wanted to know how to make makefile for my C programs in windows.
Pls help
Thank you

 

The same is true if your compiler happens to be Dev-Cpp (an IDE which uses Mingw).

 

Hello

I dont have a MS compiler.
I have Turbo C 2.0

Can u pls tell...how to make a makefile in this one.......
i wanted to try out and execute an online code which is accompanied with its makefile but it is not executing on windows........here is the makefile that was also available online


CFLAGS=-g -I.
LFLAGS=

facetrain: facetrain.o imagenet.o backprop_initr.o pgmimage.o
$(CC) ${LFLAGS} facetrain.o imagenet.o backprop_initr.o pgmimage.o \
-o facetrain -lm

hidtopgm: hidtopgm.o pgmimage.o backprop_initr.o
$(CC) ${LFLAGS} hidtopgm.o pgmimage.o backprop_initr.o \
-o hidtopgm -lm

outtopgm: outtopgm.o pgmimage.o backprop_initr.o
$(CC) ${LFLAGS} outtopgm.o pgmimage.o backprop_initr.o \
-o outtopgm -lm

facetrain_init0: facetrain.o imagenet.o backprop_init0.o pgmimage.o
$(CC) ${LFLAGS} facetrain.o imagenet.o backprop_init0.o pgmimage.o \
-o facetrain_init0 -lm

backprop_initr.o: backprop.c backprop.h
$(CC) ${CFLAGS} -c backprop.c
mv backprop.o backprop_initr.o

backprop_init0.o: backprop.c backprop.h
$(CC) ${CFLAGS} -c -DINITZERO backprop.c
mv backprop.o backprop_init0.o

--------------------------------------------------------
Now i also have these files mentioned in makefile........
Now how to make it work on windows.

Pls help

 

And as you mentioned dev C++

I have installed dev C++...but not able to even compile the files...
the files were compiling in turbo c

I created a project named code and added all these 8 files in it.........but on executing it gives e a build error
C:\Dev-Cpp\Makefile.win [Build Error] [code.exe] Error 1

 

You should use a modern compiler. It is entirely possible that code written in the heydey of Turbo C 2.0 won't run on a modern machine. For instance, modern desktop machines, whether Windows or *nix or something else, run in a protected mode that ordinarily prevents one from accessing all memory freely, or from accessing I/O ports. Old Borland code for graphics operations, for instance, has to be rewritten. How it has to be rewritten is entirely platform- and OS-dependent. The fact that Turbo C will compile without complaining only means that Turbo C is non-compliant, or that it is not written for the current state of the platform.

Messing with a makefile is not going to solve these problems. Once you have working code, then the makefile thing is just another learning step.
