Intro<\/b>
\nI have been writing my own Makefiles for years. Lately I’ve been experimenting with using automake. I have used automake to compile various things from source for years. It’s a formidable beast but then again so was make and getting vim to work the way _I_ want, but those have proven well worth the effort, we’ll see…<\/p>\n

run autoscan<\/b>
\nThis generates autoscan.log which you probably don’t care about and configure.scan which you will edit and rename to configure.ac<\/p>\n

edit configure.scan and rename to configure.ac<\/b>
\nadd AC_INIT, AC_INIT_AUTOMAKE and AC_OUTPUT
\nexample:
\n
\nAC_INIT(magtek, 0.1, tallen@integsys.biz)
\nAM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
\nAC_OUTPUT(Makefile src\/Makefile)
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

run aclocal<\/b><\/p>\n

run autoconf<\/b><\/p>\n

create\/edit Makefile.am<\/b>
\n
\nAUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = foreign
\nSUBDIRS = src
\n<\/code>
\nforeign means non GNU
\nSUBDIRS could include things like src, doc, examples, man, scripts<\/p>\n

create\/edit src\/Makefile.am<\/b>
\n
\nAM_CXXFLAGS=-g -I\/usr\/include\/libusb-1.0 -lusb-1.0
\nLDADD = \/usr\/lib\/x86_64-linux-gnu\/libusb-1.0.so
\nAM_ETAGSFLAGS = -R --c++-kinds=+p --fields=+iaS --extra=+q --if0=yes . \/usr\/include\/libusb-1.0\/<\/p>\n

bin_PROGRAMS = enumerate magtek
\nenumerate_SOURCES = enumerate.cc
\nmagtek_SOURCES = magtek.cc
\n<\/code>
\nAM_CXXFLAGS adds will show up as CXXFLAGS in the generated Makefile
\nLDADD is library thats not mainstream required for this project
\nAM_ETAGSFLAGS are the flags for the tags target in the generated Makefile
\nthe rest is for your targets and their dependencies<\/p>\n

run autoheader<\/b>
\nrun automake –add-missing<\/b>
\nrun autoconf<\/b>
\nrun .\/configure<\/b>
\nrun make<\/b><\/p>\n
