Create a simple project in the IDE that has the options you require - build
it - look in the 'build' output window to find the command line it is
using - copy this into your makefile.

By the way - just so you know, the answer to this is yes - we have
built MSP430 and NEC 78K0 projects with makefiles using MAKE from the
free command-line edition of Borland C++ 5.5. I can't pull the files to
tell you how it was done, but this is more to tell you that it IS
possible (note that these were old versions of IAR).
Note that we despise IAR and have successfully migrated away from them.

i believe it is right in theory. but finding out how to properly pass
many options to compiler and linker without a simple example is very
hard as i think. especiall, beside the object files, IAR's linker has
a command file as it's parameter, i don't know how to use or generate
it.
so i like to know, is there anyone successfully do a Makefile for a IAR
embeded project ? if so, i just want an example. thanks.

Like I said: "not if it's a Windows IDE which requires GUI
interaction".
If an IDE simply calls external command-line programs, then good - but
there are unfortunately some that are totally "integrated" in the real
monolithic single-executable sense of the word.

Hmm - ridiculous. I guess I stand corrected. Don't buy such silly
systems.

Even there. There is an underlying set of command line driven
programs, including the compiler and linker. I am thinking of
Microsofts own stuff (Visual Studio etc.) here. I doubt that
anybody elses stuff is fundamentally different.

I haven't seen Chuck's post on my newsreader yet, but as an example...
CodeVisionAVR, a C compiler targeting Atmel AVR microcontrollers most
emphatically does not support usage by make. You load all your C
files into a "project" in the GUI, and hit the "build" button. Every
C file is compiled every time. Rather than object files, a big honkin
ASM file is generated and passed to an assembler. The application is
"linked" at the ASM level.
There is _no_ command line interface whatsoever. Many users have been
begging for one for some time, but the architecture of the system
apparently makes this difficult. Even if there was, it would probably
take the form of "build the project" rather than "compile the file."

Not if it's a Windows IDE which requires GUI interaction to perform the
compile operation.
