Makefile

[agile parrot]

I got problem this makefile. I don't have any compile process in the main folder but I got an error about main.c which is located in main folder. Anyone know how can I fix this makefile?

well

as it tells you

the rule to make main.c is missing

[agile parrot]

should I create main.c for compile a library file?

[agile parrot]

I changed the error.

@vague panther

last error was about my turkish keyboard mistake

[vague panther]

looks like $(SRC) is missing ft.putchar.c

can you echo print it to verify that its missing ?

@agile parrot

[agile parrot]

it's there you can see it

[vague panther]

i was talking about your makefile

[agile parrot]

but makefile trying to compile it in not obj it's trying to use it in obj/libft

CFLAGS= -Wall -Wextra -Werror

SRC=src/
LIBFT=$(SRC)libft/
PRINTF=$(SRC)printf/
LIBFTH=$(LIBFT)libft.h
PRINTFH=$(PRINTF)printf.h
HEADERS=$(PRINTF),  $(LIBFTH)
SRCS=$(wildcard $(LIBFT)*.c),$(wildcard $(PRINTF)*.c)

OBJ=obj/
OBJS=$(patsubst $(SRC)%.c, $(OBJ)%.o, $(SRCS))
OBJ_PRE=$(addprefix $(OBJ), $(OBJS))

OUTPUT = printf.a




$(OBJ)%.o : $(SRC)%.c $(HEADERS)
    @mkdir -p obj
    @echo "Compiling: $<"
    $(CC) $(CCFLAGS) -c $< -o $@
    
$(OUTPUT): $(OBJS)
    @ar rcs $(NAME) $(OBJ_PRE)
    @echo "Printf Done !"

lib: $(OUTPUT)

all: lib
    
    

clean:
    $(RM) -r $(OBJ)

here is the code btw

[vague panther]

create a rule:

print:
    @echo "SRC: " $(SRC)
    ...

and print all the variables you have

and then show me the output of make print

[agile parrot]

when I delete "..."

[vague panther]

the ... is an ellipsis

[dense escarp]

You are missing a compilation definition for your sources in the root folder, as your rule explicitly mentions $(SRC)%.c

[vague panther]

you should put the rest of the variables instead of the ...

[agile parrot]

which veriable I should put there

[vague panther]

CC=gcc
CFLAGS= -Wall -Wextra -Werror

SRC=src/
LIBFT=$(SRC)libft/
PRINTF=$(SRC)printf/
LIBFTH=$(LIBFT)libft.h
PRINTFH=$(PRINTF)printf.h
HEADERS=$(PRINTF),  $(LIBFTH)
SRCS=$(wildcard $(LIBFT)*.c),$(wildcard $(PRINTF)*.c)

OBJ=obj/
OBJS=$(patsubst $(SRC)%.c, $(OBJ)%.o, $(SRCS))
OBJ_PRE=$(addprefix $(OBJ), $(OBJS))

OUTPUT = printf.a

[agile parrot]

I couldn't understand what you mean

[agile parrot]

I still can't understand. that is beginning my code right?

[vague panther]

print:
    @echo "SRC: " $(SRC)

[agile parrot]

there is a lot of variable 😄

[vague panther]

make print

and show me the output

jesus christ

[agile parrot]

I did it allready

[vague panther]

$(OBJS): $(SRCS) $(HEADERS)
    @mkdir -p obj
    @echo "Compiling: $<"
    $(CC) $(CCFLAGS) -c $< -o $@

try this

OBJS also looks wrong

[agile parrot]

missing seperator

[vague panther]

do you understand what i mean with this ?

[agile parrot]

SRC is src folder

[vague panther]

print:
    @echo "SRC: " $(SRC)
    @echo "SRCS: " $(SRCS)
    @echo .................

do that with every variable

i cant help you if i dont know whats inside the variables

[agile parrot]

there is two folder

libft and printf

these are two different library

in this folders have two header files too

libft.h and printf.h

for example

src/printf/printf.h
src/printf/printf.c
src/libft/libft.h
src/libft/libft.c

these are my files

and I need one file name is "printf.a"

and when I want to use all this functions I will compile my main.c with just printf.a file

like gcc main.c printf.a

I can’t see that you have added main.c and ft_print.c to your SRCS variable as they don’t appear to be in the src/ directory. Maybe move them there, change your includes in them and try the makefile again
