TALIGENT TOOLS FOR AIX - Target types

Target types

CreateMake generates different build rules for each type of target. Here are a few common target descriptions.

Library

Generates rules to build a shared library.

  Library WidgetLib {

      Source:
          AbstractWidget.C
          Widget.C
      PublicHeaders:
          Widget.h
      Link:
          TestFrameworkLib
          ToolboxLib
  }

Program

Generates rules to build an application .

  Program ShowWidget {
      Source:
          ShowWidget.C
  }

ParentObject

Generates rules to build and combine the source files. This target is frequently used to combine several projects into one larger library .

  
ParentObject FooBarLib {
      source:
          Foo.C
          Bar.C
      publicheaders:
          Foo.h
          Bar.h
  }

SubProjectList

A special type of target that lists all the subprojects you want to build; it does not have a target name or any labels. Makeit uses this list when traversing the project hierarchy and builds only from those directories listed.

  SubProjectList {
      SubProj1

      SubProj2
  }
