The GNU Make Book (No Starch Press)
Wednesday, 06 May 2015

GNU make is the most widely used build automation tool, but it can be intimidating for new users and its terse language can be tough to parse for even experienced programmers. Those who run into difficulties face a long, involved struggle, often leaving unsolved problems behind and GNU make's vast potential untapped. John Graham-Cumming demystifies GNU make and shows you how to use its best features. You'll find a fast, thorough rundown of the basics of variables, rules, targets, and makefiles. Learn how to fix wastefully long build times and other common problems, and gain insight into more advanced capabilities, such as complex pattern rules.
