Hi Nicola,

I read your cool tutorial with care, and it showed me the right way to 
do it. I still have a problem with my makefile: I am using the "single 
makefile scheme" (no recursive makefiles as you suggested), and I do 
not know how to express the dependencies between my tool and libraries.

Here are my targets:

LIBRARY_NAME = libPiranhas
libPiranhas_HEADER_FILES_INSTALL_DIR = /Piranhas
libPiranhas_HEADER_FILES = $(shell find Sources/Piranhas -name "*.h")
libPiranhas_OBJC_FILES = $(shell find Sources/Piranhas -name "*.m")

#The PingPongDemo
TOOL_NAME = PingPongDemo
PingPongDemo_OBJC_FILES = Sources/Demos/PingPongDemo.m
PingPongDemo_TOOL_LIBS += -lPiranhas

#The TaskEventDemo
TOOL_NAME = TaskEventDemo
TaskEventDemo_OBJC_FILES = Sources/Demos/TaskEventDemo.m
TaskEventDemo_TOOL_LIBS += -lPiranhas

And I want to indicate that libPiranhas must be built before the tools. 
Is there a variable I could set to do this ?

Tia,
