Makefiles for Moses

An Exegetic Study on Moses` Purity in His Meeting with Haroun (a)

The verses 150 of A`araf and 92-93 of Ta Ha have described Moses` rough meeting with Haroun after Israel sons` turning to calf worshipping. The verses have contained one of the most challengeable problems in the holy Quran. Many analyses have been presented on the meeting, yet it seems that the meeting has been made for awakening Israel sons. As is understood the main aim of the meeting has bee...

Debugging Makefiles with remake

Seminar Configurable Systems

Recursive Make Considered Harmful by Peter Miller discusses software construction using Make for projects that span several directories. Using an example, Miller shows the shortcomings and dangers of the traditional approach where each directory has its own Makefile that is executed by an recursively invoked instance of Make. In the example, two directories have mutual dependencies which cannot...

Building Software Via Shared Knowledge

In this paper we present a new approach to writing Makefiles and a system called maker which helps in this process. Our main goals are: ease the process of writing user Makefiles, reuse variable and rule definitions, handle common tasks automatically (dependency tracking, preparation of code and environment for testing or debugging) and provide support for software development on heterogeneous ...

SYMake: A Build Code Analysis Tool for Makefiles

Software building is an important task during software development. However, program analysis supports for build code are still limited, especially for build code written in a dynamic language such as Make. We propose SYMake, a novel program analysis tool for build code in Makefiles that is capable of detecting several types of code smells and errors and providing automatic supports in renaming...
