[gameprogrammer] Re: Makefile: How to put .o Files into a different directory

Make doesn't make the object files, the compiler does.  Make just asks
for the right ones.

Alter the line in your Makefile which calls the compiler, just add a
obj/ to the -o switch or similar.

Example:
.cpp.o:
        $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $< -o obj/$@

If makefiles are completely foreign to you, google for a tutorial.

Hello !


I am coding on a game and the generated object files are really cluttering the main source directory.

What is the way to say Make to put the generated
object files into for example an obj directory ?


Thanks.
