This allows building two versions for different architectures at
the same time, without the built files clobbering each other.
This is very helpful when trying to track down differences between
two build configurations.
To build outside of the source tree, create the other directory to
use for building (either outside of the openh264 directory, or as
a subdirectory), enter that directory, and do
"make -f path/to/openh264/Makefile".
All the code that relies on separating them uses the built-in defines
_WIN32 and _WIN64, or the corresponding machine defines (such as
_M_IX86, for MSVC 32 bit inline assembly).
This is enabled for platforms/compilers that support the -MMD
option, which creates a dependency file named out.d when compiling
to a file named out.o, only including local, not system headers.
The additional -MP option adds phony targets for all included
headers, to avoid having make error out due to "no rule to make
target foo.h" if a header is renamed/removed.
This makes sure that all the right files are rebuilt if a header
is changed, avoiding the need for a full rebuild if only a few
files are affected.
Don't enable threading globally since the MSVC/ARM build target
(neither windows phone nor windows rt) doesn't support the normal
windows threading functions.
This makes sure that e.g. "make clean" actually removes
the built exe files, and avoids relinking the exe files each
time make is run when cross compiling from linux to windows.
(Make on windows seems to have an exception that knows to skip
rebuilding the 'h264enc' target if 'h264enc' doesn't exist but
'h264enc.exe' does, but this exception doesn't work on normal
unix make.)
By setting an overridable variable in the main makefile, we avoid
having to move the default -DUNIX64 into each of the other unix
platform makefiles, but still allowing the mingw platform to
override it.
