Autotools local destination directory
When I run my autotools-generated Makefile with "make" it gen开发者_如何学Cerates the files in the current directory. I would prefer it to not "pollute" my directory but move the programs to "bin/" (since the source is in "src/")
Is this possible with autotools? (Using autoconf and automake - Not libtool)
mkdir builddir
cd builddir
../foobar-1.2.3/configure --my --options (or)
/path/to/foobar-1.2.3/configure --my --options
make
make foobar
make check
make install
What I usually end up whith when building manually is something like
cd foobar-1.2.3
(mkdir _b && cd _b && ../configure --prefix=$PWD/../_i)
make -C _b all check install installcheck
./_i/bin/foobar
vi foo.c bar.c foobar.h
gimp icons/foobar-moo.png
make -C _b install && ./_i/bin/foobar
Then I have the whole stuff related to the foobar program inside one directory foobar-1.2.3
, including source code, built files, and a test installation.
The built files in foobar-1.2.3/_b
are easily removed with rm -rf _b
, and the test installation with rm -rf _i
, in the course of editing the source tree from a shell with current working directory foobar-1.2.3
.
Of course, you can use a variant of that and move the build/install dirs up one directory: foobar-1.2.3--b
and foobar-1.2.3--i
alongside foobar-1.2.3
.
