bldmake command syntax

The bldmake tool processes the component description file (bld.inf) in the current directory and generates the batch file abld.bat and several build batch makefiles (.make). The makefiles are used by abld to carry out the various stages of building the component.

Invocation syntax

bldmake [ options ] command [ platform ]

Details of command and options are given below.

command

bldfiles

Creates abld and the project makefiles.

clean

Removes all files created by bldmake.

inf

Displays basic bld.inf syntax.

plat

Displays a list of the supported platforms, and the macros defined for each for the preprocessing of prj_mmpfiles and prj_testmmpfiles sections of bld.inf files.

If a platform name is given, just the macros for that platform are displayed: e.g. bldmake plat thumb.

options

There is a single option flag, -v, which instructs bldmake to print progress messages. The default gives error messages only.

platform

Defines the target for which to create the makefiles. If not specified, all the default targets are assumed.

For v9.1, the default targets are WINSCW, GCCXML, ARMV5, and CW_IDE.
