About Targets
About Targets
Because acdkmake supports several platforms and compilers,
a target is bundle of settings which specifies the needed
tools to compile, link, install, etc.The targets are organized as an hierarchy. For example the target linux is derived from the targets unix and gcc.
The core target definition is defined in the file
cfg/cfginclude/compile_specs.cfg.
Selecting targets
At the beginning starting acdkmc it try to
find a suitable target on the current enviromnent.Therefore it try to figure out on what host type acdkmake is running and try to figure out what compiler works. On a MS Windows host it try to locate the Visual C++ compiler, and if this fails it looking for a Borland C++ compiler.
Available Targets
The variable AMAKE_TARGET set the build target.You can list all supported targets with the
-dump-targets
option.To view the specs for a target you can use the
-dump-target <targetname> option.Following targets are known by acdkmake.
