linux自动编译工具automake说明

1.工具简单介绍

工具名称	用途	输入	输出	说明
autoscan	扫描目录下文件	-	configure.scan
aclocal	生成aclocal.m4	configure.scan->configure.ac 并编辑configure.ac增加部分内容		configure.ac 一般增加AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([helloworld],1.0) 为可选
automake	根据Makefile.am生成Makefile.in	Makefile.am(手动创建)	Makefile.in	一般使用增加选项--add-missing
autoconf	生成configure	configure.ac aclocal.m4	configure

引用张旧图:

  图中configure.in更新为configure.ac

2.编译步骤

step1.手动创建源文件:

helloworld.c

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char** argv)

{

printf("Hello, Linux World!\n");

return 0;

}

step1.autoscan

自动生成 configure.scan

结果:

autoscan.log  configure.scan  helloworld.c

autoscan.log为空文件:

configure.scan

#                                               -*- Autoconf -*-

# Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.

AC_PREREQ([2.69])

AC_INIT([FULL-PACKAGE-NAME], [VERSION], [BUG-REPORT-ADDRESS])

AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR([helloworld.c])

AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h])

# Checks for programs.

AC_PROG_CC

# Checks for libraries.

# Checks for header files.

# Checks for typedefs, structures, and compiler characteristics.

# Checks for library functions.

AC_OUTPUT

step2.手动编辑configure.scan

#                                               -*- Autoconf -*-

# Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.

AC_PREREQ([2.69])

#AC_INIT([FULL-PACKAGE-NAME], [VERSION], [BUG-REPORT-ADDRESS])

AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR([helloworld.c])

#AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h])

# Checks for programs.

AC_PROG_CC

# Checks for libraries.

# Checks for header files.

# Checks for typedefs, structures, and compiler characteristics.

# Checks for library functions.

AC_OUTPUT

step3.执行aclocal

结果:

autom4te.cache  autoscan.log  configure.ac  helloworld.c

step4.手动创建Makefile.am

AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS=foreign

bin_PROGRAMS= helloworld

helloworld _SOURCES= helloworld.c

step5.执行automake --add-missing

aclocal.m4  autom4te.cache  autoscan.log  configure.ac  depcomp  helloworld.c  install-sh  Makefile.am  Makefile.in  missing

step6.执行autoconf：

aclocal.m4  autom4te.cache  autoscan.log  configure  configure.ac  depcomp  helloworld.c  install-sh  Makefile.am  Makefile.in  missing

step7.执行./configure

aclocal.m4      autoscan.log  config.status  configure.ac  helloworld.c  Makefile     Makefile.in

autom4te.cache  config.log    configure      depcomp       install-sh    Makefile.am  missing

step8.执行make

aclocal.m4      autoscan.log  config.status  configure.ac  helloworld    helloworld.o  Makefile     Makefile.in

autom4te.cache  config.log    configure      depcomp       helloworld.c  install-sh    Makefile.am  missing

--end--
