katja eb614fdf16 Disable dep. checking for fat builds on OSX <= 10.5. Version 0.2.3
Multiple arch flags are incompatible with option -MM for preprocessor
on (at least) OSX <= 10.5. Non clean builds would stall on this. This
commit disables dependency checking for fat builds (current default
for OSX) on ppc and i386. Assuming that development is done on newer
systems / machines it should rarely hurt.

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:
