Course Description:

Do you want to take the next step as a C/C++ developer to get a professional foothold in these exciting languages?
Then my course is the right one for you.

What are Make and Makefiles?

The compilation of source code files can be controlled with the program make. This is especially useful if it is a large project where the compilation consists of many individual steps and dependencies. The individual actions can be, for example, separate compilations or other file operations such as copying and deleting. Dependencies can be, for example, conditional compilations. These steps and dependencies are combined into a Makefile, which is then processed by the make program.

This course consists of the following topics:

• Makefile Hello World
• Makefile Targets and Commands
• Basic C/C++ Project Structure
• Makefile Variables
• Command-Line Values for Variables
• Compiler, Pre-Processor, and Linker Flags
• If, Else Statements in Makefiles
• Clean Target and PHONY Targets
• Patterns, Wildcards, and Substitutions
• Using Sub-Directories for your Project
• Wrap-Up of Makefiles

The Tool we will use:

• You can use any IDE or Editor, I will use VSCode
• You already should have installed Make on your Computer
• Also, any GCC or Clang should be installed on your system
• Windows, Linux, or Mac are all fine

Become a professional today, in the technology of tomorrow!

See you in class!
