Message definition (KDevelop5/Manual/Building (compiling) projects with custom Makefiles)

Many projects describe how source files have to be compiled (and which files have to be recompiled once a source or header file changes) using Makefiles that are interpreted by the '''make''' program (see, for example, [http://www.gnu.org/software/make/ GNU make]). For simple projects, it is often very easy to set up such a file by hand. Larger projects often integrate their Makefiles with the '''GNU autotools''' (autoconf, autoheader, automake). In this section, let us simply assume that you have a Makefile for your project and you want to teach '''KDevelop''' how to interact with it.
