Makefiles is a nightmare, how to avoid them, SOLUTION

[wandersonp]

Recently I discovered how to avoid Makefiles for projects that required lib linking, lots of cpp and header files.

 

just a simple solution 

 

my main.cpp file just contains

 

#include SOP_mySop.cpp

#include file01.cpp

#include file02.cpp

#include file03.cpp

#include file04.cpp

 

now just execute hcustom main.cpp and everything is fine

Mmmm definitely not good.

I think this technique has its pros and cons. I have heard rumours of some large project (was it a game engine? i forget) that builds using this technique.

I'm not quite understand, how including source code, can help with linking, especially when linking with 3rd party libs? Also makefiles can do much much more. Maybe in case of hcustom it helps.....

until now, this technique works for me, because in my linux the makefile sample of HDK site is not working properly, lot of errors.

 

in the future i will try to correct and use makefiles in my source
