Compile all C files in a directory into separate programs

Question

Is there a way using GNU Make of compiling all of the C files in a directory into separate programs, with each program named as the source file without the .c extension?

Answer 1

SRCS = $(wildcard *.c)  PROGS = $(patsubst %.c,%,$(SRCS))  all: $(PROGS)  %: %.c          $(CC) $(CFLAGS)  -o $@ $< 

Answer 2

I don't think you even need a makefile - the default implicit make rules should do it:

$ ls src0.c  src1.c  src2.c  src3.c $ make `basename -s .c *` cc     src0.c   -o src0 cc     src1.c   -o src1 cc     src2.c   -o src2 cc     src3.c   -o src3 

Edited to make the command line a little simpler.
