This package contains a library MakeFile with datatypes to describe the structure of makefiles and print them in the standard makefile syntax. Furthermore, the package also contains a tool to generate a makefile for a Curry application.
After checking out the tool by the command
> cpm checkout makefilego into the root directory of the package and run
> cpm installThis installs the executable curry-genmake in the bin directory of CPM.
In the simplest case, run the executable with the main module of the application as an argument, e.g.,
> curry-genmake MainThis should output a makefile. There are further options to write the output into a file or provide some name to which the main executable will be linked when installing the application with the makefile (use option --help).
If the application needs a specific load path for modules, this load path must be set via the environment variable CURRYPATH. For instance, to generate a makefile for some package managed with CPM, one can use the CPM command cpm exec inside the package directory, e.g.,
> cpm exec curry-genmake Main
