so i want to do something like this configure.in: PROGNAME = "foo" DIR = "${bindir}/${PROG}" AC_SUBST(DIR)
myfile.h.in: #define DIR "@DIR@" when things resolve out to myfile.h i get #define CONF_DIR "${exec_prefix}/foo" this is because $bindir = ${exec_prefix}/bin i.e. we only get one level of variable resolution. Is there any way around this, or has anyone written a decently portable macro to make this work. thanks
