## NAME

ml-makedepend - makefile dependency generator for SML/NJ programs

## SYNOPSIS

ml-makedepend [OPTIONS] project.cm target

## DESCRIPTION

ML-Makedepend is a tool for generating dependency information to allow the Unix make(1) program to be used to build SML/NJ programs.

## OPTIONS

-f makefile

  Specify the name of the makefile to which the dependency information is appended. If this option is not given, then the output is appended to the end of the file `makefile` (or `Makefile`). It is an error if neither file exists and the -f option is not specified.

-a arch

  specifies the name a make variable for architecture-specific filenames and paths (the default is `ARCH`).

-o os

  specifies the name a make variable for operating-system-specific filenames and paths (the default is `OPSYS`).

-n

  generates full filenames and paths with any architecture or operating-system-specific parts expanded out to their definition for the host system. If this option is specified, then any -a and -o options are ignored.

-Cctl=value

  set the control ctl to value.

-Dname=value

  define the CM variable name to have the given value.

-D'name

  define the CM variable name to have the value 1.

-Uname

  remove any definition of the CM variable name.
