Looking for Makefile example/help

man make on my linux box is not much help.
Don't have a make book.

This directory is getting too crowded.
I would like to have it seperated out into the following directories

src
include
obj/Linux
obj/Solaris
bin/Linux
bin/Solaris
test/Linux
test/Solaris

The method below takes me a lot of time to maintain dependancies
makedepend does not recognize that some of the files are in a .a

Everything is currently in RCS

I don't use any ide, just a shell, nedit and a makefile.

Need example please.
Here's what I'd like to see. I know I'm close but syntax errors are
killing me:
define Cpu_type
if [ `/bin/uname -s` = 'SunOS' ] ; then echo SunOS ; \
elif [ `/bin/uname -s` = 'Linux' ] ; then echo Linux ; \
fi
endef

define Inst
if [ `/bin/uname -s` = 'SunOS' ] ; then echo
/usr/local/bin/install ; \
elif [ `/bin/uname -s` = 'Linux' ] ; then echo /usr/bin/install ; \
fi
endef

define Date_time
/bin/date '+%d%h%y/%H:%M$%Z$'
endef

I don't know enough about make to answer your question, but "info make"
provides more complete information than "man make".

Have a look at "info make recursion".

Hope I could help (a little),

Ha. Have a look at:

http://www.tip.net.au/~millerp/rmch...-cons-harm.html

Peter Miller's "Recursive Make Considered Harmful".

Even if you don't agree with the author's points - and it's a well written
paper IMHO - there are some interesting insights into make for the
intermediate user.
