一个可以自动更新依赖关系的makefile

一般编译器都可以产生cpp文件和头文件之间的依赖关系，对于gcc可以使用如下的命令：

    gcc -MM sourcefile.cpp

产生的结果可能如下：

    sourcefile.o: sourcefile.cpp header1.h header2.h

利用这个功能，我们就可以编写一个可以自动更新依赖关系的makefile，具体如下：

文件AutoMakeCore：

# this file is the core of the automatically update of the
# dependent relation among the sources and headers.
# firstly, an imexplicit rule to build the object file from the cpp file
# secondly, by the help of '-MM' option of gcc, a dependent file will be
# generate to the object files' directory, which will be include by the makefile

# the implicit rule for the obj file
$(OBJECTS_DIR)/%.o:%.cpp
 $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(INCPATH) $< -o $@
# automatically generate the dependencs relationship of the
# src files and header files
# 1.remove all dependence files first
# 2.generate the dependence file ,it's like '*.o:*.cpp *.h'(use gcc -MM option)
# 3.modify the dependence file,like '*.o *.d:*.cpp *.h'

$(DEPENDS):$(OBJECTS_DIR)/%.d:%.cpp
 @mkdir -p $(OBJECTS_DIR);set -e; rm -f $@;/
 $(CXX) -MM $(CXXFLAGS) $(INCPATH) $< | sed -e 's,/($*/)/.o,$(OBJECTS_DIR)//& $@,g'>  $@

-include $(DEPENDS)
