8.2 fpcmake

fpcmake is the Free Pascal makele constructor program.

It reads a Makele.fpc conguration le and converts it to a Makele suitable for reading by GNU make to compile your projects. It is similar in functionality to GNU autoconf or Imake for making X projects.

fpcmake accepts lenames of makele description les as its command-line arguments. For each of these les it will create a Makele in the same directory where the le is located, overwriting any other existing le.

If no options are given, it just attempts to read the le Makele.fpc in the current directory and tries to construct a makele from it. any previously existing Makele will be erased.

The format of the fpcmake conguration le is described in great detail in the appendices of the Programmers guide.
