The challenge is to create a makefile which takes a list of modules and does not require me to sort out precendence. For example, the modules are
mod allocations.f08 mod precision definitions.f08 mod unit values.f08
mod blocks.f08 mod shared.f08 mod parameters.f08
mod timers.f08
The main program is characterize.f08
. The error message is
Fatal Error: Can't open module file ‘mprecisiondefinitions.mod’ for reading at (1): No such file or directory
The first statement in the main program is use mPrecisionDefinitions
, the module defined in mod precision definitions.f08
.
The following makefile, based upon Creating a FORTRAN makefile, is:
# compiler
FC := /usr/local/bin/gfortran
# compile flags
FCFLAGS = -g -c -Wall -Wextra -Wconversion -Og -pedantic -fcheck=bounds -fmax-errors=5
# link flags
FLFLAGS =
# source files and objects
SRCS = $(patsubst %.f08, %.o, $(wildcard *.f08))
# program name
PROGRAM = a.out
all: $(PROGRAM)
$(PROGRAM): $(SRCS)
$(FC) $(FLFLAGS) -o $@ $^
%.mod: %.f08
$(FC) $(FCFLAGS) -o $@ $<
%.o: %.f08
$(FC) $(FCFLAGS) -o $@ $<
clean:
rm -f *.o *.mod
For starters, I recommend to replace all spaces in your file names with underscores or something similar.
Spaces are almost universally used as separators, and any program that is started with something like
gfortran -c -o mod precision definitions.o mod precision definitions.f08
would interpret this line as 'create an object file called mod
from the source files precision
, definitions.o
, mod
, precision
, and definitions.f08
. And while there are ways to do it, with increasing automation, you have to jump more and more hoops.
In contrast, this works well:
gfortran -c -o mod_precision_definitions.o mod_precision_definitions.f08
I would use this command to change all the spaces into underscores:
rename 's/ /_/g' *.f08
If that doesn't work, use this command:
for f in *.f08; do mv "$f" ${f// /_}; done
Next, I wouldn't worry about .mod
files. They get generated together with the object files when you compile a module. So while technically some routine that uses a module requires the .mod
file for that module, you might as well claim in your Makefile
that it depends on the object file itself.
So with that said, here's the Makefile I would use (with some assumed inter-module dependencies added):
# Find all source files, create a list of corresponding object files
SRCS=$(wildcard *.f08)
OBJS=$(patsubst %.f08,%.o,$(SRCS))
# Ditto for mods (They will be in both lists)
MODS=$(wildcard mod*.f08)
MOD_OBJS=$(patsubst %.f08,%.o,$(MODS))
# Compiler/Linker settings
FC = gfortran
FLFLAGS = -g
FCFLAGS = -g -c -Wall -Wextra -Wconversion -Og -pedantic -fcheck=bounds -fmax-errors=5
PROGRAM = characterize
PRG_OBJ = $(PROGRAM).o
# make without parameters will make first target found.
default : $(PROGRAM)
# Compiler steps for all objects
$(OBJS) : %.o : %.f08
$(FC) $(FCFLAGS) -o $@ $<
# Linker
$(PROGRAM) : $(OBJS)
$(FC) $(FLFLAGS) -o $@ $^
# If something doesn't work right, have a 'make debug' to
# show what each variable contains.
debug:
@echo "SRCS = $(SRCS)"
@echo "OBJS = $(OBJS)"
@echo "MODS = $(MODS)"
@echo "MOD_OBJS = $(MOD_OBJS)"
@echo "PROGRAM = $(PROGRAM)"
@echo "PRG_OBJ = $(PRG_OBJ)"
clean:
rm -rf $(OBJS) $(PROGRAM) $(patsubst %.o,%.mod,$(MOD_OBJS))
.PHONY: debug default clean
# Dependencies
# Main program depends on all modules
$(PRG_OBJ) : $(MOD_OBJS)
# Blocks and allocations depends on shared
mod_blocks.o mod_allocations.o : mod_shared.o
