Dependencies for resource files

As part of my own makefiles for my project, I build dependencies for my resource files (*.rc) via the following in my Makefile:
Code: Select all
$(TARGET).o.d: $(TARGET).rc
g++ -E -xc-header -DRC_INVOKED -MM -MF $@ -MT $(TARGET).o
What would the best approach be to implement this in my CodeLite project?

You can add your own makefile rules to the generated makefile via the 'custom makefile steps' tab in the project settings
For example:
to generate .o.d file, add:
Dependencies: $(TARGET).o.d
in the rule actions:
Code: Select all
$(TARGET).o.d: $(TARGET).rc
g++ -E -xc-header -DRC_INVOKED -MM -MF $@ -MT $(TARGET).o
However, codelite does not know what is TARGET, so you will need to set the real name here
Instead of 'g++' use $(CompilerName) to see the complete line of how codelite compile files, have a look at 'Settings -> Build Settings -> gnu g++ -> File Types'
It is something like:
Code: Select all
$(CompilerName) $(SourceSwitch) "$(FileFullPath)" $(CmpOptions) $(ObjectSwitch)$(IntermediateDirectory)/$(FileName)$(ObjectSuffix) $(IncludePath)
play with it and it will work eventually

Can I have multiple Custom makefile steps?
I currently have the Dependencies as:
With the Rule action being:
Code: Select all
../svnversion.h:
svn info --revision HEAD | findstr Revision > svnversion.tmp &
for /f "tokens=1,2" %%i in (svnversion.tmp) do echo #define SVN_VERSION %%j > ..\svnversion.h &
for /f "tokens=1,2" %%i in (svnversion.tmp) do echo #define SVN_VERSION_STR "%%j" >> ..\svnversion.h &
del /q svnversion.tmp
How do I define a second dependency?

Yes, add another dependency, and at the 'Rule' section, add the makefile rule for it

Sorry, brain lapse on my part, just needed to add a space between the dependencies and have them all on the one line.

I'm getting there.... I now have:
Dependencies:
Code: Select all
$(IntermediateDirectory)/emergeDesktop.rc$(DependSuffix)
Rule action:
Code: Select all
$(IntermediateDirectory)/emergeDesktop.rc$(DependSuffix): emergeDesktop.rc
$(CompilerName) -E -xc-header -DRC_INVOKED -MT$(IntermediateDirectory)/emergeDesktop.rc$(ObjectSuffix) -MF$(IntermediateDirectory)/emergeDesktop.rc$(DependSuffix) -MM emergeDesktop.rc
I tried using absolute paths with:
Code: Select all
... -MM $(ProjectPath)/emergeDesktop.rc
But it resulted in mixed path slashes. Is it possible to call some routine to convert $(ProjectPath) to unix format within the Windows version of CodeLite?
Additionally, is it possible to extend the 'clean' rule to remove emergeDesktop.rc$(DependSuffix)?
Thank you for all the help!

You can not extend the clean rule. Sorry
