<modulesummary>A Make Utility for Erlang</modulesummary>
<description>
<p>The module <c>make</c> provides a set of functions similar to
the UNIX type <c>Make</c> functions.</p>
</description>
<funcs>
<func>
<name>all() -> up_to_date | error</name>
<name>all(Options) -> up_to_date | error</name>
<fsummary>Compile a set of modules.</fsummary>
<type>
<v>Options = [Option]</v>
<v> Option = noexec | load | netload | <compiler option></v>
</type>
<desc>
<p>This function first looks in the current working directory
for a file named <c>Emakefile</c> (see below) specifying the
set of modules to compile and the compile options to use. If
no such file is found, the set of modules to compile
defaults to all modules in the current working
directory.</p>
<p>Traversing the set of modules, it then recompiles every module for
which at least one of the following conditions apply:</p>
<list type="bulleted">
<item>there is no object file, or</item>
<item>the source file has been modified since it was last compiled,
or,</item>
<item>an include file has been modified since the source file was
last compiled.</item>
</list>
<p>As a side effect, the function prints the name of each module it
tries to compile. If compilation fails for a module, the make
procedure stops and <c>error</c> is returned.</p>
<p><c>Options</c> is a list of make- and compiler options.
The following make options exist:</p>
<list type="bulleted">
<item><c>noexec</c> <br></br>
No execution mode. Just prints the name of each module that needs
to be compiled.</item>
<item><c>load</c> <br></br>
Load mode. Loads all recompiled modules.</item>
<item><c>netload</c> <br></br>
Net load mode. Loads all recompiled modules an all known nodes.</item>
</list>
<p>All items in <c>Options</c> that are not make options are assumed
to be compiler options and are passed as-is to
<c>compile:file/2</c>. <c>Options</c> defaults to <c>[]</c>.</p>
</desc>
</func>
<func>
<name>files(ModFiles) -> up_to_date | error</name>
<name>files(ModFiles, Options) -> up_to_date | error</name>
<fsummary>Compile a set of modules.</fsummary>
<type>
<v>ModFiles = [Module | File]</v>
<v> Module = atom()</v>
<v> File = string()</v>
<v>Options = [Option]</v>
<v> Option = noexec | load | netload | <compiler option></v>
</type>
<desc>
<p><c>files/1,2</c> does exactly the same thing as <c>all/0,1</c> but
for the specified <c>ModFiles</c>, which is a list of module or
file names. The file extension <c>.erl</c> may be omitted.</p>
<p>The <c>Emakefile</c> (if it exists) in the current
directory is searched for compiler options for each module. If
a given module does not exist in <c>Emakefile</c> or if
<c>Emakefile</c> does not exist, the module is still compiled.</p>
</desc>
</func>
</funcs>
<section>
<title>Emakefile</title>
<p><c>make:all/0,1</c> and <c>make:files/1,2</c> looks in the
current working directory for a file named <c>Emakefile</c>. If
it exists, <c>Emakefile</c> should contain elements like this:</p>
<code type="none">
Modules.
{Modules,Options}. </code>
<p><c>Modules</c> is an atom or a list of atoms. It can be
</p>
<list type="bulleted">
<item>a module name, e.g. <c>file1</c></item>
<item>a module name in another directory,
e.g. <c>../foo/file3</c></item>
<item>a set of modules specified with a wildcards,
e.g. <c>'file*'</c></item>
<item>a wildcard indicating all modules in current directory,
i.e. <c>'*'</c></item>
<item>a list of any of the above,
e.g. <c>['file*','../foo/file3','File4']</c></item>
</list>
<p><c>Options</c> is a list of compiler options.
</p>
<p><c>Emakefile</c> is read from top to bottom. If a module
matches more than one entry, the first match is valid. For
example, the following <c>Emakefile</c> means that <c>file1</c>
shall be compiled with the options
<c>[debug_info,{i,"../foo"}]</c>, while all other files in the
current directory shall be compiled with only the
<c>debug_info</c> flag.</p>
<code type="none">
{'file1',[debug_info,{i,"../foo"}]}.
{'*',[debug_info]}. </code>
