Makefile to compile multiple C programs?

Question

This is an incredibly simple question, but I\'m new to makefiles. I am trying to make a makefile that will compile two independent programs:

program1:
    gc         


        

Answer 1

SRC = a.cpp b.cpp
BIN = $(patsubst %.cpp,%,$(SRC))

all: $(BIN)

clean:
    rm -f $(BIN)

.PHONY: all clean

make all will do:

c++     a.cpp   -o a
c++     b.cpp   -o b

If you set CXX and CXXFLAGS variables make will use them.
