CODELITE-MAKE(1)

✨ codelite-make ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the codelite-make page from the General Commands Manual section 💖 yes it's a real manual page and yes it's about to be your new fave. sit down, grab a lil snack 🍓, we're doing Unix today.

🎀 NAME 🎀

codelite-make — it's a makefile generator, and it's built on top of CodeLite's workspace. that's the whole vibe. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

like, here's how you actually call her:

codelite-make -w workspace -c configuration [-p project] [-e] [-v]
codelite-make [-h]

see those square brackets? those are the optional lil extras. the first form is the main character energy ✨, the second one is just "help me please". 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so codelite-make generates a makefile so you can build a CodeLite project. that's it, that's the job, no cap. 🧚

and here's the cute part: the command you can use to build the project? it gets printed for you. like it literally tells you what to run. iconic behavior honestly. 👑

💖 OPTIONS 💖

every single one, no skipping, we don't do that here:

• -w, --workspace=workspace-file — sets the CodeLite workspace file that we're gonna read the list of projects from. this is your source of truth bestie 📂
• -c, --config=configuration — sets the workspace configuration to generate a makefile for. gotta pick your config, no defaulting your way out of this one ✨
• -p, --project=project — sets the project to generate a makefile for. and listen: if you just… don't include it? it generates a makefile for the active project instead. so chill, it's got you 🌈
• -e, --execute — builds the project after the makefile is generated. yes ma'am, generate then immediately go 🔥
• -v, --verbose — turns on verbose messages. for when you wanna know EVERYTHING that's happening 💬
• -h, --help — prints a brief usage summary. your lil "wait how does this work" button 🙈
