Octave's build system

[Lars Jahr Røine]

Hello,

I wondered if there are any sources to learn more about Octave's build 
system?

Specifically I would like to find out the correct approach to signal 
that new files should be compiled and linked. If for example
I have two files, a .cc file and a .h file that contains a class that I 
want to use in gl-render.cc/gl-render.h, which, if any,
makefiles should be modified? Makefile.am in the /src directory? And if 
yes, do I then have to run configure to generate a new
Makefile and then do a clean make?

Kind regards,
