1 This is a guide to explain various useful targets in Userland component
2 Makefiles. There is a set of targets that all Makefiles must include, plus
3 some addtional targets that are there for convenience.
5 component-environment-check::
6 This target is an optional target that will be included in most Makefiles
7 automatically. It is defined in $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/environment.mk which is
8 included by $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/shares-macros.mk. It reports on some interesting
9 information about the current environment and whether or not it is suitable
10 to build, publish, or test the component.
12 component-environment-prep::
13 This target is an optional target that will be included in most Makefiles
14 automatically. It is defined in $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/environment.mk which is
15 included by $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/shares-macros.mk. It uses the REQUIRE_PACKAGES
16 macro contents to attempt to install any required packages in the current
17 environment. It should never by used by developers to update any public
18 build machines as those are managed by dedicated staff. To use this target
19 user has to be assigned "Software Installation" or "Primary Administrator"
23 This target is present in all Makefiles. It can be used at the top level
24 to act across all components, or on an individual component basis. It is
25 typically defined by including $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/prep.mk in your component
26 Makefile. This target depends on your component Makefile, so changes to your
27 component Makefile will automatically trigger a re-download and subsequent
28 build steps that depend on it. You can use the MAKEFILE_PREREQ macro to
29 override this behaviour and avoid rebuilding with each Makefile change. This
30 macro should only be used in the calling environment via something like:
31 $ gmake MAKEFILE_PREREQ= install
34 This target is present in all Makefiles. It can be used at the top level
35 to act across all components, or on an individual component basis. It is
36 typically defined by including $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/prep.mk in your component
37 Makefile. This target depends on the previously described "download" target,
38 This target will unpack any downloaded source archives. It is an interim
39 step in the source code preparation phase of the build.
42 This target is present in all Makefiles. It can be used at the top level
43 to act across all components, or on an individual component basis. It is
44 typically defined by including $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/prep.mk in your component
45 Makefile. This target depends on the previously described "unpack" target,
46 This target will patch any unpacked source. It is an interim step in the
47 source code preparation phase of the build.
50 This target is present in all Makefiles. It can be used at the top level
51 to act across all components, or on an individual component basis. It is
52 typically defined by including $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/prep.mk in your component
53 Makefile. It depends on the previously described "download" target, as well
54 as internal interim targets to unpack source archives and apply patches to
58 This target must be present in all Makefiles. It can be used at the top level
59 to act across all components, or on an individual component basis. It is
60 defined in the individual component Makefiles, but most Makefile fragments
61 under $(WS_MAKE_RULES) include targets that allow the definitions to depend
62 on one of several convenience macros $(BUILD_32), $(BUILD_64),
63 $(BUILD_32_and_64), and $(BUILD_NO_ARCH) to build 32-bit support, 64-bit
64 support, both 32 and 64 bit support, or architecture neutral support. The
65 macro used will depend on the component.
68 This target must be present in all Makefiles. It can be used at the top level
69 to act across all components, or on an individual component basis. It is
70 defined in the individual component Makefiles, but most Makefile fragments
71 under $(WS_MAKE_RULES) include targets that allow the definitions to depend
72 on one of several convenience macros $(INSTALL_32), $(INSTALL_64),
73 $(INSTALL_32_and_64), and $(INSTALL_NO_ARCH) to install 32-bit support, 64-bit
74 support, both 32 and 64 bit support, or architecture neutral support. The
75 macro used will depend on the component and corresponds to the build target
79 This target is an optional target is automatically defined in each Makefile
80 by the inclusion of $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/prep.mk. It will run the build steps
81 necessary to pkglint the manifests for a component.
84 This target is present in all Makefiles. It can be used at the top level
85 to act across all components, or on an individual component basis. It is
86 automatically defined by including $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/ips.mk. It depends
87 on the previously described 'install' target and will perform a series of
88 internal, intermediate steps to use the component package manifests to
89 generate and validate consistency of packages for that component.
91 NOTE: The pre-publish target aims to help a recipe developer to make sure
92 that the recipe can produce a valid package without actually pushing its
93 bits into his or her repository (allows to experiment, saves some time, and
94 avoids polluting the repository with known-bad code during development cycles).
97 This target is present in all Makefiles. It can be used at the top level
98 to act across all components, or on an individual component basis. It is
99 automatically defined by including $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/ips.mk. It depends
100 on the previously described 'pre-publish' target and will actually publish
101 packages for that component to the repository configured in $(WS_REPO).
104 This target is present in all Makefiles. It can be used at the top level
105 to act across all components, or on an individual component basis. It is
106 often automatically defined by including one of the $(WS_MAKE_RULES)
107 Makefile fragments. It cleans up any files created by building the component
108 with the exception of any downloaded files.
111 This target is present in all Makefiles. It can be used at the top level
112 to act across all components, or on an individual component basis. It is
113 often automatically defined by including one of the $(WS_MAKE_RULES)
114 Makefile fragments. It depends on the previously described 'clean' target
115 and additionally cleans up any downloaded source archives. In addition,
116 when done from the top level or component sub-directory, it will do a find
117 of 'manifest-*.published' and clean those up; these can be left over from
118 components that were published but then 'hg rm'd before the next clobber.
121 This target is present in all component Makefiles. It is automatically
122 defined by including $(WS_MAKE_RULES)/ips.mk. It is a convenience that can
123 be used to generate the set of REQUIRED_PACKAGES that is needed by the
124 'pkgdepend resolve' portion of package generation and publication (publish
125 target). It automatically appends to the component Makefile, but the results
126 should be manually verified.
129 This target serves as an alias for component-environment-check target. It exists
130 only for user convenience.
133 This target serves as an alias for component-environment-prep target. It exists
134 only for user convenience.
137 This target will print contents of variable VAR and also provide information
138 about variable origin and variable flavor.
