I need to check for scripting languages (ruby, perl , python 2.x ,
python 3.0) and generating a script file
depending on what's available.
I do this in the following way
if ruby is available:
cp collect.rb collect && chmod +x collect
if perl is available:
cp collect.rb collect && chmod +x collect
eg.,
AC_ARG_VAR([RUBY]) # optional - adds RUBY to 'influential variables'
in configure --help
AC_CHECK_PROGS([RUBY], [ruby])
if test "x$RUBY" != x; then
cp collect.rb collect && chmod +x collect
fi
You can use the $(RUBY) variable to run the located RUBY interpret from
within your Makefile.am or Makefile.in files.
