I've got a makefile for Advent of Code that I've decided to do in chicken scheme.
However, it's starting to grow, and I'd like to remove the repetition.
Here's a section of what I've got so far, but how do I make it so it can automatically find all days instead of 2 entries per day and an ever increasing main target?
all: advent2015
# advent years - this is ever increasing with the *.so targets
advent2015: $(ADVENTS_SRC)2015/advent2015.scm \
aoc2015day01.so aoc2015day02.so
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $< -d3 -O2 -compile-syntax -o $@
# individual days - how do i write a single rule that works for all days?
aoc2015day01.so: $(ADVENTS_SRC)2015/aoc2015day01.scm aoc-files.so
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $(LIBFLAGS) $< -j aoc2015day01 -emit-types-file aoc2015day01.types -o $@
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $(IMPORTFLAGS) aoc2015day01.import.scm
aoc2015day01.import.so: aoc2015day01.so
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $(IMPORTFLAGS) aoc2015day01.import.scm
# day02...
aoc2015day02.so: $(ADVENTS_SRC)2015/aoc2015day02.scm aoc-files.so
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $(LIBFLAGS) $< -j aoc2015day02 -emit-types-file aoc2015day02.types -o $@
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $(IMPORTFLAGS) aoc2015day02.import.scm
aoc2015day02.import.so: aoc2015day02.so
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $(IMPORTFLAGS) aoc2015day02.import.scm
I tried a small change to the advent2015 target by specifying a wildcard in the so files it is using, but make completely skipped generating the targets.
No problem:
DAYS := 01 02 03 04 <...> 24 25
all: advent2015
advent2015: $(ADVENTS_SRC)2015/advent2015.scm \
$(foreach D,$(DAYS),aoc2015day$(D).so)
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $< -d3 -O2 -compile-syntax -o $@
%.so: $(ADVENTS_SRC)2015/%.scm aoc-files.so
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $(LIBFLAGS) $< -j $* -emit-types-file $*.types -o $@
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $(IMPORTFLAGS) $*.import.scm
%.import.so: %.so
$(CSC) $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) $(IMPORTFLAGS) $*.import.scm
I'm not sure these commands are actually correct but they're what you provided above, so you can fix them if not.
