A few notes on what was covered in 03.08.txt

(not necessarily complete... these were written "after the fact").


For the exam: be sure to know:

 * what separate compilation means

 * what .o files are

 * what the -c flag does when you use it with CC or g++

 * the purpose of a Makefile

 * what is a "target" in a Makefile

 * what happens when you type "make all", "make", or "make clean"

The file "allAboutSeparateCompilation.txt", which is located in the
directory lab04example/lab04 under this one, contains a lot of the
content of the lecture.

You may also want to review Chapter 38 and Appendix G in the Andersen
"Just Enough Unix" book to help re-enforce the stuff covered in this
lecture.
