<title>The Make Utility</title>		<h1 align=center>The Make Utility</h1><!--INDEX "Make utility" -->Make is an essential tool for managing large projects. It saves timeby only compiling those modules that have been changed since the lastbuild. To learn more about make I recommend either of these books.<p><ul><li>"Managing Projects with Make", by Andrew Oram and Steve Talbott, publishedby O'Reilly & Associates, Inc. ISBN 0-937175-90-0<p><li>"Mastering Make", by Clovis L. Tondo et al., published by Prentice Hall, ISBN 0-13-554619-2.<p></ul><b>MSDOS</b> users should note that they *must* use the make utility that issupplied with Microsoft's Visual C++ package. This utility is named 'nmake',so everytime they see 'make' in this document, they must substitute'nmake'.<p><b>TechNote:</b> The reason that MSDOS users *must* use nmake, is thatonly nmake permits three recursive calls to make, followed by a callto pmcc, followed by a call to the compiler without running out of memory.<p></dl><p><hr><b>Navigation:</b> <a href="index.htm">Document Home</a> | <a href="doctoc.htm">Document Contents</a> | <a href="docindex.htm">Document Index</a> <p>
