A Makefile problem

[mrdebug]

I think not. How can I verify?
It is a esp32 project.

@mrdebug

I think not. How can I verify?

By studying $(IDF_PATH)/make/project.mk and watching the compiler outputs?

It is a esp32 project.

That should not matter. The Makefile controls the compiler, be it native or embededded.

Regards

[mrdebug]

Sorry but I haven't got so much experience with Makefile.
Can I add some echo print line at the end of the Makefile to know if my keyword is still active?
Wich is the name of the variable that stores the library path?

[jsulm]

@mrdebug Just call make and check the output of the compiler/linker - you will see whether your paths are passed to them or not.

[mrdebug]

I don't see it

[jsulm]

@mrdebug You mean you do not see the paths being passed to compiler/linker?

[mrdebug]

No, I don't see it.

[jsulm]

@mrdebug One moment, you do NOT use QMake, but edit makefile manually, right? If so then what you did will not do anything! You need to add includes/libs to the compiler/linker calls in your make file.
Can you show the whole makefile?

[mrdebug]

Really this is my Makefile

#
# This is a project Makefile. It is assumed the directory this Makefile resides in is a
# project subdirectory.
#

PROJECT_NAME := esp32-Test01-App

INCPATH       = -I/home/denis/workspace/esp32-Test01/components/component01/include/
LIBS          = $(SUBLIBS) -L/home/denis/workspace/esp32-Test01/build/component01/ -llibcomponent01


include $(IDF_PATH)/make/project.mk

I don't using qmake.

[aha_1980]

@jsulm As I said before, I think the magic happens in $(IDF_PATH)/make/project.mk

@mrdebug: Sorry, but without makefile understanding you will not get very far.

At some point make calls your compiler and linker, and passes options to them. This is where you need to add your modifications.

@mrdebug said in A Makefile problem:

$(IDF_PATH)/make/project.mk

Then check what is inside that file or post it here

#
# Main Project Makefile
# This Makefile is included directly from the user project Makefile in order to call the component.mk
# makefiles of all components (in a separate make process) to build all the libraries, then links them
# together into the final file. If so, PWD is the project dir (we assume).
#

#
# This makefile requires the environment variable IDF_PATH to be set to the top-level esp-idf directory
# where this file is located.

This makefile calls a bunch of other makefiles. In one of them it's very likely LIBS gets overridden

[mrdebug]

Is there a way to restore its value?

[jsulm]

@mrdebug Is there actually any documentation for this esp32? Maybe it is described somewhere?

[aha_1980]

@mrdebug

Looking at this:

Set default LDFLAGS
EXTRA_LDFLAGS ?=
LDFLAGS ?= -nostdlib
-u call_user_start_cpu0
$(EXTRA_LDFLAGS)
-Wl,--gc-sections
-Wl,-static
-Wl,--start-group
$(COMPONENT_LDFLAGS)
-lgcc
-lstdc++
-lgcov
-Wl,--end-group
-Wl,-EL

I think the correct way is to add your values to EXTRA_LDFLAGS in your Makefile before inserting $(IDF_PATH)/make/project.mk

At least it looks like that is the way it was designed.

[mrdebug]

Absolutely not.
I have already asked in the Espressif official forum without any reply.
I have asked here because this forum is read by top level developers.

There is another way, it is to use cmake. With cmake everithing works.
The problem is the IDE.
I need to use an IDE to develop, such as Eclipse (the only one). The problem is that Eclipse does not considered the CMakeLists.txt file. It considers only the Makefile file because Eclipse manages the Esp32 projects as Makefile projects.

To use Eclipse is not mandatory (I hate Eclipse) but it is the only one.

[mrdebug]

Ok now I try

I need to use an IDE to develop, such as Eclipse (the only one). The problem is that Eclipse does not considered the CMakeLists.txt file. It considers only the Makefile file because Eclipse manages the Esp32 projects as Makefile projects.

Why not use QtCreator? https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-project-generic.html is exactly for that use case with existing makefiles.

I use them for Atmel ATMEGA projects, e.g.

Is it possible to manage a CMakeList project?
