LIBRARY_NAME should be assigned the list of name of libraries to
be generated. Most UNIX systems expect that the filename for the
library has the word lib prefixed to the name; i.e. the c
library has filename of libc. Prefix the lib to the
library name when it is specified in the LIBRARY_NAME variable
because the Makefile Package will not automatically prefix it.
xxx_C_FILES is the list of C files, with a .c extension,
that are to be compiled to generate the xxx library.
Replace the xxx with the name of the library as listed by
the LIBRARY_NAME variable.
xxx_OBJC_FILES is the list of Objective-C files, with a .m
extension, that are to be compiled to generate the xxx library.
Replace the xxx with the name of the library as listed by the
LIBRARY_NAME variable.
xxx_PSWRAP_FILES is the list of PostScript wrap files, with a
.psw extension, that are to be compiled to generate the
xxx library. PostScript wrap files are processed by the
pswrap utility which generates a .c and a .h file
from each .psw file; the generate .c file is the file
actually compiled. Replace the xxx with the name of the
library as listed by the LIBRARY_NAME variable.
xxx_HEADER_FILES is the list of header filenames that are to be
installed with the library. If a filename has a directory path prefixed
to it then that prefix will be maintained when the headers are
installed. It is up to the user to make sure that the installation
directory exists; otherwise, an error will occur when the library is
installed, see xxx_HEADER_FILES_INSTALL_DIR. Replace the xxx with
the name of the library as listed by the LIBRARY_NAME variable.
xxx_HEADER_FILES_DIR is the relative path from the current
directory, where the makefile is located, to where the header files
specified by xxx_HEADER_FILES are located. If a filename
specified in xxx_HEADER_FILES has a directory path prefixed to it
then that path will not be removed when the Makefile Package accesses
the files, so do not specify a path with xxx_HEADER_FILES_DIR
that is already prefixed to the header filenames, see xxx_HEADER_FILES_INSTALL_DIR. xxx_HEADER_FILES_DIR
is optional; leaving it blank or undefined, and the Makefile Package
assumes that the relative path to the header files is the current
directory where the makefile resides. Replace the xxx with the
name of the library as listed by the LIBRARY_NAME variable.
xxx_HEADER_FILES_INSTALL_DIR specifies the relative subdirectory
path below GNUSTEP_HEADERS where the header files are to be
installed. If this directory or any of its parent directories do not
exist, then the Makefile Package will create them. The Makefile Package
prefixes xxx_HEADER_FILES_INSTALL_DIR to each of the filenames in
xxx_HEADER_FILES when they are installed, so if the filenames in
xxx_HEADER_FILES already have a directory path prefixed then the
user is responsible for creating that directory, the Makefile Package
will not create. xxx_HEADER_FILES_INSTALL_DIR is optional;
leaving it blank or undefined, and the Makefile Package assumes that the
installation directory is just GNUSTEP_HEADERS with no
subdirectory. Replace the xxx with the name of the library as
listed by the LIBRARY_NAME variable.
xxx_CPPFLAGS are additional flags that will be passed to the
compiler preprocessor when compiling Objective-C and C files to generate
the xxx library. Adding flags here does not override the
default CPPFLAGS, see CPPFLAGS, they are
in addition to CPPFLAGS. These flags are specific to the
xxx library, see ADDITIONAL_CPPFLAGS,
to see how to specify global preprocessor flags. Replace the
xxx with the name of the listed as listed by the
LIBRARY_NAME variable.
xxx_OBJCFLAGS are additional flags that will be passed to the
compiler when compiling Objective-C files to generate the xxx
library. Adding flags here does not override the default
OBJCFLAGS, see OBJCFLAGS, they are in
addition to OBJCFLAGS. These flags are specific to the
xxx library, see ADDITIONAL_OBJCFLAGS,
to see how to specify global compiler flags. Replace the xxx
with the name of the library as listed by the LIBRARY_NAME
variable.
xxx_CFLAGS are additional flags that will be passed to the
compiler when compiling C files to generate the xxx library.
Adding flags here does not override the default CFLAGS, see
CFLAGS, they are in addition to CFLAGS.
These flags are specific to the xxx library, see
ADDITIONAL_CFLAGS, to see how to specify global
compiler flags. Replace the xxx with the name of the library
as listed by the LIBRARY_NAME variable.
xxx_LDFLAGS are additional flags that will be passed to the
linker when it creates the xxx library. Adding flags here does
not override the default LDFLAGS, see LDFLAGS, they are in addition to LDFLAGS. These flags
are specific to the xxx library, see
ADDITIONAL_LDFLAGS, to see how to specify
global linker flags. Replace the xxx with the name of the
library as listed by the LIBRARY_NAME variable.
xxx_INCLUDE_DIRS is the list of additional directories that the
compiler will search when it is looking for include files; these flags
are specific to the xxx library, see
ADDITIONAL_INCLUDE_DIRS, to see how to specify
additional global include directories. The directories should be
specified as ‘-I’ flags to the compiler. The additional include
directories will be placed before the normal GNUstep and system include
directories, and before any global include directories specified with
ADDITIONAL_INCLUDE_DIRS, so they will always be searched first.
Replace the xxx with the name of the library as listed by the
LIBRARY_NAME variable.
