Hi everybody, i have written work generator daemon, but I can't link it with boinc's library. Who can help me write makefile to compile it? I use sample_work_generator.C is the template to write.
Tks!

The easiest thing to do would be to edit the Makefile in that directory and make a copy of the entry for sample_work_generator. That will take care of all the BOINC library linkages. If it still won't build, work from there.

The makefile of sched folder is very complex so i can't understand what sample_work_generator must link to. Besides link to boinc's library, my work_generator daemon also link my application's library. I don't know how to edit the available makefile in sched folder to compile it.

The makefile of sched folder is very complex

Edit Makefile.am, then re-run _autosetup and configure which will re-generate the (complex) makefile from the .am.

All you would have to do for this approach is a global search/replace, changing "sample_work_generator" to "my_work_generator", and add your own library to the link step.

This is a good idea. And probably better if your work generator is more complex than a single file replacement for sample_work_generator.C, because it will be easier to see where (and how) to put in the other file dependencies.

I have read some tutorials about automake and autoconf, and now i understand how to create makefile (very complex) on boinc. Thank all of you :D
