The issue is that Make isn't particularly well suited to figure out properties of C / C++ compilers, or how to locate and link dependencies. That's the main reason Autotools and CMake exist.
- cozzyd 3y agoyeah, CMake helps if not everyone is running the same compiler/environment as you. If your code only ever runs with gcc on Linux though, Make works pretty well..
