katja 9fd17957c7 Do not pass architecture flags for dependency checking
Only pass flags categories which can be expected to hold -I flags
to the preprocessor for dependency checking. Omit categories which
may contain architecture and tuning flags. This is a small and
hopefully reasonable limitation of dependency-checking functionality.
The preprocessor will still see predefined macros, amongst which
architecture definition. Thus, eventual architecture-dependent include
statements in the source code are considered for native architecture
during dependency checking.

This commit should resolve the rebuild issue on OSX, where some compiler
versions can not handle multiple architecture flags during dependency
checking.

Makefile.pdlibbuilder

Helper makefile for Pure Data external libraries. Written by Katja Vetter March-June 2015 for the public domain. No warranties. Inspired by Hans Christoph Steiner's Makefile Template and Stephan Beal's ShakeNMake.

GNU make version >= 3.81 required.

characteristics

  • defines build settings based on autodetected OS and architecture
  • defines rules to build Pd class- or lib executables from C or C++ sources
  • defines rules for libdir installation
  • defines convenience targets for developer and user
  • evaluates implicit dependencies for non-clean builds

basic usage

In your Makefile, define your Pd lib name and class files, and include Makefile.pdlibbuilder at the end of the Makefile. Like so:

  # Makefile for mylib

  lib.name = mylib

  class.sources = myclass1.c myclass2.c

  datafiles = myclass1-help.pd myclass2-help.pd README.txt LICENSE.txt

  include Makefile.pdlibbuilder

For files in class.sources it is assumed that class name == source file basename. The default target builds all classes as individual executables with Pd's default extension for the platform. For anything more than the most basic usage, read the documentation sections in Makefile.pdlibbuilder.

examples

Here are three projects using the Makefile.pdlibbuilder approach:
