Cygwin makefile compile cannot find -lregex - c

I am using Cygwin and makefile to complile multiple c files.
The make file is
CC=gcc
INC_DIR=../include
LIBS=-lregex
ODIR=obj
_OBJ=main.o BVPA.o BVPA-cube.o BVPA-cif.o BVPA-hk.o BVPA-path.o BVPA-math.o BVPA-cmd.o BVPA-gui.o BVPA-vesta.o MT19937AR.o
OBJ=$(patsubst %,$(ODIR)/%,$(_OBJ))
TARGET=../bin/BVPA1.exe
CFLAGS=-I$(INC_DIR) -Wall -g
all: $(TARGET)
rm -f $(ODIR)/*.o
$(TARGET): $(OBJ)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o $# $^ $(LIBS)
$(ODIR)/%.o: %.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c -o $# $^
clean:
rm -f $(ODIR)/*.o`
The outcome is
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/7.3.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/7.3.0/../../../libregex.dll when searching for -lregex
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/7.3.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: cannot find -lregex
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [makefile:14: ../bin/BVPA1.exe] Error 1
I am not sure how to solve the problem. I have tried to download some libregex.dll and put them in the cygwin lib folder but they seem to be uncompatible.

"clang: error: cannot specify -o when generating multiple output files" fix

I'm trying to compile my C project using clang (I'm on MacOS Monterry) and a Makefile, but I keep getting the same error from clang in the command line:
> make
gcc -c src/ji.c src/main.c -o src/ji.o
clang: error: cannot specify -o when generating multiple output files
make: *** [src/ji.o] Error 1
These are the only files I have in the project so far:
src/main.c
src/ji.c
include/ji.h
The Makefile looks like this:
cc = gcc
src = $(wildcard src/*.c)
obj = $(src:.c=.o)
exec = ji
$(exec): $(obj)
$(cc) -Iinclude $< -o build/$#
%.o: %.c
$(cc) -c $(src) -o $#
clean:
-rm src/*.o
-rm ji
From YouTube videos I've seen, this should be the ideal Makefile for the project but no matter what I change I get the error.
There are a few issues:
-Iinclude needs to be on the %.o: %.c rule command
In %.o: %.c, we don't want $(src) but rather $<
We want patsubst to get the .o list obj
The $(exec) target doesn't match the -o option
The clean doesn't match the placement of the executable
Here's a refactored version (e.g. one way to do this--there are others):
cc = gcc
src = $(wildcard src/*.c)
obj = $(patsubst %.c,%.o,$(src))
exec = build/ji
$(exec): $(obj)
mkdir -p build
$(cc) $^ -o $#
%.o: %.c
$(cc) -c $< -o $# -Iinclude
clean:
rm -f src/*.o
rm -fr build
Here's the output of make:
gcc -c src/ji.c -o src/ji.o -Iinclude
gcc -c src/main.c -o src/main.o -Iinclude
mkdir -p build
gcc src/ji.o src/main.o -o build/ji
Here's the output of make clean:
rm -f src/*.o
rm -fr build

Issue when linking with `-lrt` on Mac OSX

On my Mac OSX 10.13, I always use the following makefile to compile C codes:
TARGET = run
LIBS = -O2 -lm -lrt
CC = gcc
.PHONY: default all clean
all: $(TARGET)
OBJECTS = $(patsubst %.c, %.o, $(wildcard *.c))
HEADERS = $(wildcard *.h)
%.o: %.c $(HEADERS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $< -o $#
.PRECIOUS: $(TARGET) $(OBJECTS)
$(TARGET): $(OBJECTS)
$(CC) $(OBJECTS) $(CFLAGS) $(LIBS) -o $#
clean:
-rm -f *.o
-rm -f $(TARGET)
Note that I use -lrt on purpose because I use #include <aio.h> for some of my codes. Because of that, I keep getting this error:
ld: library not found for -lrt
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make: *** [run] Error 1
This error does not show up when running on Linux systems. How do I fix that to be runnable on Mac OSX?

GNU make undefined reference to functions defined in shared library

I am trying to link to a shared library. But I kept getting the undefined reference error. The following is makefile:
LIBDIR :=./lib
LIB :=-lminus
OBJDIR :=objdir
SOURCES=$(wildcard ./src/*.c)
OBJS :=$(patsubst ./src/%.c, $(OBJDIR)/%.o, $(SOURCES))
INCPATH = -Ilib -Isrc
vpath %.h ./src ./lib
vpath %.c ./src ./lib
optest : $(OBJS)
cc -o optest $(OBJS)
$(OBJDIR)/main.o : main.c add.h mul.h did.h minus.h
cc $(INCPATH) -o $# -c $< -L$(LIBDIR) $(LIB)
$(OBJDIR)/%.o: %.c %.h | $(OBJDIR)
cc -o $# -c $<
$(OBJDIR):
mkdir $#
clean :
rm -rf $(OBJDIR)
rm -f optest
rm -f ./src/*.o
The shared library is called libminus, which is put in the ./lib directory. The main function in main.c uses the function minus defined in this library. I searched online, people met this problem before. Most of their problems were solved after the shared libraries were put after the object files in the rule command. I also tried this, but it didn't work for me. The error I got is as follows:
mkdir objdir
cc -o objdir/mul.o -c ./src/mul.c
cc -o objdir/did.o -c ./src/did.c
cc -Ilib -Isrc -o objdir/main.o -c ./src/main.c -L./lib -lminus
cc -o objdir/add.o -c ./src/add.c
cc -o optest objdir/mul.o objdir/did.o objdir/main.o objdir/add.o
objdir/main.o: In function `main':
main.c:(.text+0xa5): undefined reference to `minus'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
makefile:11: recipe for target 'optest' failed
make: *** [optest] Error 1
Can any one give some suggestion? Thank you.
You're putting the lib stuff into the wrong rule:
$(OBJDIR)/main.o : main.c add.h mul.h did.h minus.h
cc $(INCPATH) -o $# -c $< -L$(LIBDIR) $(LIB)
This just compiles main.c to main.o. The -L and $(LIB) don't belong here. They have to be in the build recipe of this rule, which links the executable:
optest : $(OBJS)
cc -o optest $(OBJS)

makefile exit with no reason when compile .pc and .c at the same time. very strange

I am using pro*c in AIX,I want make my .pc file compile to a .so libary. And link it. This is my directory:
ls
connect.pc func.c get_log.pc main.c makefile sql_err.pc
This is my makefile:
#Makefile
CC = cc -g -brtl
CFLAGS = -g -c
ESQL = proc
RM = rm -f
MYHOME = /home/xxx
OBJ = main.o func.o
LIBOBJ = get_log.o connect.o sql_err.o
DBINC = -I$(ORACLE_HOME)/precomp/public
DBLIB = -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -lclntsh
INCLUDE = -I$(MYHOME)/include
.SUFFIXES: .pc .c .o
.pc.o:
$(ESQL) include=$(MYHOME)/include iname=$*.pc
$(CC) -o $*.o $(CFLAGS) $*.c $(INCLUDE) $(DBINC) $(DBLIB)
$(RM) $*.c
$(RM) $*.lis
libmydb.so:$(LIBOBJ)
$(CC) -qmkshrobj -o $# $(LIBOBJ) $(DBLIB)
mv $# $(MYHOME)/lib
query:$(OBJ)
cc -o $# $(OBJ) -L$(MYHOME)/lib -lmydb
mv $# $(MYHOME)/bin
func.o:func.c
$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $< $(INCLUDE)
main.o:main.c
$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $< $(INCLUDE)
clean:
rm -f *.o *.lis
when I make I get this:
.......
cc -g -brtl -o sql_err.o -g -c sql_err.c -I/home/xxx/include -I/oracle/product/10.2.0/precomp/public -L/oracle/product/10.2.0/lib -lclntsh
rm -f sql_err.c
rm -f sql_err.lis
cc -g -brtl -qmkshrobj -o libmydb.so get_log.o connect.o sql_err.o -L/oracle/product/10.2.0/lib -lclntsh
mv libmydb.so /home/xxxlib
when it done mv libmydb.so ,it exit!!!without wrong message.why?? I also need my .c to compile to .o and finally to an executable file query link libmydb.so.
when I change the squeuce like this put .c.o before .pc.o:
query:$(OBJ)
cc -o $# $(OBJ) -L$(MYHOME)/lib -lmydb
mv $# $(MYHOME)/bin
func.o:func.c
$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $< $(INCLUDE)
main.o:main.c
$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $< $(INCLUDE)
.pc.o:
$(ESQL) include=$(MYHOME)/include iname=$*.pc
$(CC) -o $*.o $(CFLAGS) $*.c $(INCLUDE) $(DBINC) $(DBLIB)
$(RM) $*.c
$(RM) $*.lis
libmydb.so:$(LIBOBJ)
$(CC) -qmkshrobj -o $# $(LIBOBJ) $(DBLIB)
mv $# $(MYHOME)/lib
it give this message,although I have libmydb.so last step:
prepaid(wmfe)/home/xxx/src>make
cc -g -brtl -c -g -c main.c -I/home/xxx/include
cc -g -brtl -c -g -c func.c -I/home/xxx/include
cc -o query main.o func.o -L/home/xxx/lib -lmydb
ld: 0706-006 Cannot find or open library file: -l mydb
ld:open(): A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 255.
Stop.
I can't handle this ,very strange,Help!!
By default make will make the first rule in your makefile, but it must not start with a dot. So the default rule in your makefile is libmydb.so and that is being built.
That rule is only dependent on the LIBOBJ and OBJ is not a dependency so it doesn't care about those. It doesn't exit with no reason, it exits because it has done the job you defined for it. There is no error to report.
If you change the order then the default rule is changed and it tries to compile query. This has no dependencies to the library, so it doesn't try to compile that.
If you want to compile everything you should have, for example, a rule all that lists the dependencies. In this case probably libmydb.so and query at least, in correct order. If this is the first rule it will be the default and your compilation will succeed.

linking and compiling with Makefile

gcc 4.7.2
c89
GNU Make 3.82
I am trying compile this program I have using this Makefile. I have only 1 src file at the moment, but I will have more later to include.
I am trying to get the Makefile to create the bin directory if it doesn't exist and put the binary executable in there.
INC_PATH=-I/home/dev_tools/apr/include/apr-1
LIB_PATH=-L/home/dev_tools/apr/lib
LIBS=-lapr-1
RUNTIME_PATH=/home/dev_tools/apr/lib
CC=gcc
CFLAGS=-Wall -Wextra -g -m32 -D_DEBUG -D_THREAD_SAFE -D_REENTRANT -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -O2 $(INC_PATH)
OBJECTS=timeout.o
EXECUTABLE=bin/to
all: build $(EXECUTABLE)
$(EXECUTABLE):
$(CC) -m32 -o $# -Wl,-rpath,$(RUNTIME_PATH), $(LIB_PATH) $(OBJECTS) $(LIBS)
build:
#mkdir -p bin
clean:
rm -rf *~ timeout *.o
I am getting this error:
make
gcc -m32 -o bin/to -Wl,-rpath,/home/dev_tools/apr/lib, -L/home/dev_tools/apr/lib timeout.o -lapr-1
gcc: error: timeout.o: No such file or directory
make: *** [bin/to] Error 1
When I remove the $(OBJECTS) I get the following:
gcc -m32 -o bin/to -Wl,-rpath,/home/dev_tools/apr/lib, -L/home/dev_tools/apr/lib -lapr-1
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find : No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [bin/to] Error 1
Not sure where I am going wrong with this.
You have not specified how to build the target timeout.o.
You need to add the following code:
timeout.o: timeout.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c -o $# $<
If you end up with more source file that you need compiled, you can use a pattern matching rule like this:
%.o: %.c
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $< -o $#
Makefiles can be a bit tricky. Because you want to continue adding more objects to your OBJECT variable, I would actually add a prerequisite to EXECUTABLE to make sure all of your objects are compiled. From there, the automatic rule inference should take care of the rest.
Basically replace the line with:
$(EXECUTABLE): $(OBJECTS)
$(CC) -m32 -o $# -Wl,-rpath,$(RUNTIME_PATH), $(LIB_PATH) $(OBJECTS) $(LIBS)
Its showing error because make is not able to find timeout.o file in the current directory.
If you have timeout.c file then add the following to your makefile
OBJECTS: timeout.c
$(CC) -c timeout.c
