Also sprach Remko Troncon: } > export CFLAGS=whatever } } Of course, but then i overwrite all flags that configure sets by } default, and that's probably not very clean (although i don't think it } makes a lot of difference at this point). } We have the same problem with our library. I use a home-brewed script to remove the -g flag. Something like:
CFLAGS_temp="" if test -n "$CFLAGS"; then for d in $CFLAGS ; do if test "X$d" != "X-g"; then CFLAGS_temp="$CFLAGS_temp $d" fi done CFLAGS=$CFLAGS_temp fi There's only one drawback...if -g means something on another compiler, it will remove that as well. However, we haven't run across such a compiler yet (and we test on a bunch of weird platforms with different compilers on each). -- || Bill Wendling "Real Programmers have a Snoopy Calendar || [EMAIL PROTECTED] of '69 hanging on their wall" || Coding Simian -- Toon Moene
