The complete program is compiled from the top level make file. Both a standalone program (logger) and a libtool compliant library (liblogger.la) are created. The library provides a convenient mechanism for reusing the code from this model, when creating subsequent models which use derived classes.

The SystemC modules are all compiled with SC_INCLUDE_DYNAMIC_PROCESSES defined when using TLM 2.0. This is a requirement for using the TLM 2.0 library. The final executable is linked against the SystemC library.
