Cppmake Description

Cppmake is a front-end to make that builds C++ applications with more accuracy and less effort than writing makefiles manually. Building a C++ program with cppmake is similar to compiling a Java program. The idea is that you specify a classpath and cppmake will automatically find all the classes needed by your program. Once found, all of the classes are compiled and linked into an executable or library. It's similar to makedepend, but more powerful. The difference between cppmake and makedepend is that cppmake infers source dependencies from the header dependencies it discovers and recursively finds all the source dependencies required to build. It then generates a complete makefile for the build (without any editing on your part) and actually builds the executable or library by invoking make. The benefits of using cppmake to build C++ programs include: · You don't have to write a makefile when you start a new project · You don't have to maintain a makefile as your project evolves · You don't have to write a makefile ever!!! · Header file dependencies are automatically kept up to date · You can switch from one implementation of a group of classes to another on the fly by simply changing the classpath
