I just have a last question about the right inclusion of
aggregate.make when
combined when another makefile. Should aggregate.make be included
before or
after framework.make (or application.make)?
The order determines the order in which they are built: the first
that you include is built first. :-)
So, if you want the aggregate.make aggregate projects to be built
first, you include it first; if you want
the framework to be built first, you include framework.make first. :-)
If the are dependencies between the two (eg, the aggregate projects
use/link the framework, or the
framework uses/links a framework built as part of the aggregate
projects) then it might be important
which one is included first, and you shouldn't swap them. In some
other cases it doesn't matter
and you can swap them at will ;-)
Depending on how the dependencies work in the case of your Etoile
project, one of the two
might be correct, while the other might not.
Thanks
