Configure, make, what did the install do?

1. My understanding
./configure: Ensure that the next make and do install files that are dependent on no problem
Make:build compiling a connection to generate an executable program
Make install: Copy the compiled executable program and the document to the corresponding system directory

2. So how do I make configure files and makefile?

1) prepararation
MAIN.C,

#include <stdio.h>int main (intconstChar *argv[]) {    printf ( " Hello world\n " );     return 0 ;}

Configure.ac

Ac_init ([helloworld],[0.1],[[email protected]163. com]) Am_init_automakeac_prog_ccac_config _files ([Makefile]) Ac_output

Makefile.in

automake_options=== main.c

2) Tools:

 aclocal------------------> set   up an M4 environmentautoconf ------------------> Generate Configure from  Span style= "color: #000000;" > Configue.acautomake --add-mising------> Generate Makefile. in  from   makefile.am.  /configue-----------------> Generate Makefile from  makefile.in  make distcheck -------------> Use Makefile to build and test a tarball To distribute 

3. Overview

./configure # Generate Makefile from makefile.in
Make # Use Makefile to build the program
Make install # Use Makefile to install the program
