问题
I use emacs to do some coding, and text editing. When I create a new coding project, I simply create a new folder, and add source code into it.
The problem is, with multi-folders, it is hard to change back to the top, and run the makefile.
Is there any good method to do project management like eclipse or other IDEs?
回答1:
I don't generally compile from within emacs anymore, but why can't you run a shell in a buffer just for running make. Keep that shell in the top level directory.
As for project management, what features are you looking for?

I know your problem. If you have a Makefile in the same folder as your source, and you are in a source buffer, then 'compile' will build correctly.
But if your source is in a different folder then emacs can't find the Makefile.
One solution is to specify the Makefile's location by setting the 'default-directory' variable as a file variable in each source file.
You do this by adding a line like this at the top of the file (and reload it).
// -*- mode: C++; default-directory: "c:/somewhere/yourmakefiledirectory/" -*-

Below is the ;; compilation section of my .emacs file. I use CTRL+F7 for make, and F7 for make clean. It will search in the current directory and then in .. and so on for a file called "Makefile" to run make on.
Also not that F8 jumps the source window to the first error and CTRL+F8 takes you to the previous error. (BTW, if you think this is awesome, you should see what I've done for GDB integration)... :)
;; Compilation
(setq compilation-scroll-output 1) ;; automatically scroll the compilation windo
w
(setq compilation-window-height 10) ;; Set the compilation window height...
(setq compilation-finish-function ;; Auto-dismiss compilation buffer...
(lambda (buf str)
(if (string-match "exited abnormally" str)
(message "compilation errors, press F6 to visit")
; no errors, make the compilation window go away after 2.5 sec
(run-at-time 2.5 nil 'delete-windows-on buf)
(message "No compilation errors!"))))
(require 'cl) ; If you don't have it already
(defun* get-closest-pathname (&optional (file "Makefile"))
"This function walks up the current path until it finds Makefile and then retu
rns the path to it."
(let ((root (expand-file-name "/")))
(expand-file-name file
(loop
for d = default-directory then (expand-file-name ".." d)
if (file-exists-p (expand-file-name file d))
return d
if (equal d root)
return nil))))
(defun my-compile-func ()
"This function does a compile."
(interactive)
(compile (format "make -C %s" (file-name-directory (get-closest-pathname)))))
(defun my-compile-clean-func ()
"This function does a clean compile."
(interactive)
(compile (format "make -C %s clean" (file-name-directory (get-closest-pathname
)))))
(defun my-compile-package-func ()
"This function builds an Endura package."
(interactive)
(compile (format "make -C %s package" (file-name-directory (get-closest-pathna
me)))))

Just M-x compile once from the root directory. This will create a *compilation* buffer which will remember the directory and parameters it was invoked with.
Then when you want to recompile, just issue M-x recompile. This works from anywhere. It brings back up your original *compilation* buffer and uses the directory stored in that buffer to find your Makefile.
There are other ways to issue compilation from outside your project's root directory, but I thought I'd point this out since it works out of the box with zero customization. A lot of the other responses made the solution sound more complicated than it is.
Compilation buffer tips
If you type C-c C-f while in the compilation buffer it will enable next-error-follow-minor-mode, so that while you navigate among the errors of the compilation buffer, a second window will display the error in it's original source buffer.
M-n and M-p will move between the errors of the compilation buffer.
If you are already in the source buffer, and want to navigate between errors there, type M-g n, or M-g p.
Syntax Error Highlighting
Type M-x flymake-mode to do on the fly syntax checking as you type. It will highlight syntax errors in red. Hovering over with the mouse will show you the error message.
For flymake to work, you must add a check-syntax rule to your makefile.
C++ example:
check-syntax:
g++ -o nul -S ${CXXFLAGS} ${CHK_SOURCES}
This rule checks the syntax of the file, but does not compile it, so it is fast.

I use EDE from CEDET package - it can maintain different types of projects. I use it to work with CMake, together with custom compile-command (you can find it here - see for MyCompile function)
回答6:
I recently started using project-root to manage my various directory trees. I've now bound F5 to (with-project-root (compile)) and the default-directory is automatically set to the root of any project that I've specified in my .emacs, based on whatever buffer I'm invoking the compile from.

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but you might be looking for Speedbar.
回答8:
You can use Desktop bookmarks, Dired bookmarks, or Bookmark-List bookmarks to organize a project -- see Bookmark+.

Depends on the language. JDE is a good Java environment, Distel is a good Erlang environment. I'm sure there are good environments for other platforms as well. Across the board, though, you'll have to do more configuration in emacs than you will in an IDE like Eclipse. IMO, the payoff is worth it, though.
回答10:
How about entering the following when prompted for the compiling command:
"cd <root> ; make"
If it's a hassle to type often, it can be set in the "compile-command" variable -- though it will be remembered in a session after you type it once.
回答11:
when I did this with Java, I used ANT, and ANT handled this elegantly with the "-find" switch.
Effectively what it did was look in the current directory for the build.xml file, until it found it. Very handy especially in Java projects because of their enforced directory structure.
For Make, I would create a similar replacement:
#!/bin/sh
# mymake -- my "hunt the makefile" make command
if [ -f Makefile ]
then
exec make
else
cur=`pwd`
if [ $cur = "/" ]
then
echo "Can not find Makefile"
exit 1
fi
newdir=`dirname $cur`
cd $newdir
exec mymake
fi
回答12:
I would use eproject; http://github.com/jrockway/eproject
Here's an example from SO: Is there a good Emacs project management somewhere?
Basically, it unifies the features of CEDET, project-root, and so on. You can declare project definitions in a number of ways, and access the data through a unified API. It also comes with some nice sugar, including ibuffer integration. (Filter ibuffer by project, see the project name next to the buffer name, etc.]
