Notes: Make
Building
Using the DCL script makefile.com
The procedure makefile.com accepts up to two parameters:
- Build with vaxcrtl.olb instead of shareable image.
If P1 is not empty make.exe will be linked against
sys$library:vaxcrtl.olb, instead of the default behaviour to
link against the C library shareable image (DEC C or VAX C).
- DEBUG
If P2 is set to "DEBUG" an image with full debug information
will be built.
Using makefile.vms
In case make is already available on the system it can be rebuild
using make -f makefile.vms .
Other Make tools
- Jam
- Jam is a Make replacement with simplified rules. Supported on many
platforms.
- MMK
- The most common "Make" for OpenVMS. Compatible to MMS from Digital.
Doesn't support multi-platform builds though.
- Pmake
- A make derived from the BSD Unix distribution.
