tsoding.nobuild

nobuild

Header only library for writing build recipes in C.

[!WARNING] This library is DEPRECATED! Use https://github.com/tsoding/nob.h instead

How to use the library in your own project

Keep in mind that nobuild.h is an stb-style header-only library. That means that just including it does not include the implementations of the functions. You have to #define NOBUILD_IMPLEMENTATION before the include. See our nobuild.c for an example.

1. Copy nobuild.h to your project
2. Create nobuild.c in your project with the build recipe. See our nobuild.c for an example.
3. Bootstrap the nobuild executable:
   • $ cc nobuild.c -o nobuild on POSIX systems
   • $ cl.exe nobuild.c on Windows with MSVC
4. Run the build: $ ./nobuild

If you enable the Go Rebuild Urself™ Technology the nobuild executable will try to rebootstrap itself every time you modify its source code.
