use the easy way.
the maintanance problems of the hard way have no real benefit over doing
some renamings.
And if there are other reasons that you are not supposed to
rename something, well, then you could use the rename trick.
this is - you add the following two pattern rules to your makefile
%-coo.c : %.c
cp $< $@
%-cpp.cpp : %.cpp
cp $< $@
and make the link target dependent on objects one-coo.o and one-cpp.o!!!!
.... in automake-speak:
lib_LTLIBRARIES = libtest.la
libtest_la_SOURCES = one-cpp.cpp one-coo.c
%-cpp.cpp : %.cpp
cp $< $@
%-coo.c : %.c
cp $< $@
... which will instantly compile with the following configure.in:
AC_INIT(Makefile.am)
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(test,1.0)
AC_LANG_C
AC_PROG_CC
AC_PROG_CXX
AM_PROG_LIBTOOL
AC_PROG_INSTALL
AC_OUTPUT(Makefile)
