Make It Fast!

Sharing a template for an easy to use make file system.

• Self-maintaining: No need for manually adding files.
• Quick-and-dirty: Get started fast!

Here goes:

SOURCE_FILES= $(wildcard *.cpp) ../../commando/sonar/Sonar.cpp
# Automatically gets the file-list from the directory!
# Add extra files from other dirs at the end if needed (Sonar.cpp above)

OBJS=$(patsubst %.cpp, %.o,$(SOURCE_FILES))
# Rule for specifying object file list

# The rest of this is standard make-file stuff   

COMPILER=g++
CFLAGS= -W -g -O0 -fexceptions -finline-functions -D_THREAD_SAFE -fpack-struct=4
#Compiler options  
LIBS= -lboost_filesystem
#Libraries to link to  

SEARCHDIRS = -I../inc -L../lib

#Include and library directories  

TARGET= ../../homebase/linux/nuboat
# Output file  

.PHONY:all
all: $(TARGET)

$(TARGET): $(OBJS)
$(COMPILER) $(CFLAGS) $(SEARCHDIRS) $(GLOBALS) $(OBJS) $(LIBS) -o $(TARGET)

%.o: %.cpp
$(COMPILER) $(CFLAGS) $(SEARCHDIRS) $(GLOBALS) -o $@ -c $<

.PHONY:clean
clean:
-rm -f $(OBJS) $(TARGET)

You can use this so long as you don't have source files floating around in the Makefile's directory, which should not be included in the build.
