Programming Handheld and Mobile devices 2 Standard Make In the standard make project wizards, Developer Suite provides a generic set of makefiles that you can modify and tailor for your specific application build. The standard make makefiles are user-defined and user-controlled. You have to manually update when you make changes to your project (adding files, removing files, changing the output, etc.). Developer Suite essentially invokes make to build the standard make projects. You also have the option of not using the Developer Suite supplied makefiles, but the you must modify your makefiles to meet certain Developer Suite requirements. Developer Suite requires that the following variables be defined in the makefile:
