Hello, I just moved to the autotools and I'm facing a problem I cannot deal with; I've searched the autoconf and automake manuals but in vain.
I've got some existing code to port to the autotools system. The code should be divided into three packages and a fourth should consist of the sum of the other three. Directory tree: /client-sdl - should be separate package - /metaserver - should be separate package - /server - should be separate package - /shared - SHARED CODE (.c and .h files) - Now, the global package making all is easy to build, the problem arises with /shared, which is a directory containing source code referenced by all other directories. I would like to build my-app-client-sdl-x.xx.tar.gz, my-app-metaserver-x.xx.tar.gz, my-app-server-x.xx.tar.gz, and even my-app-x.xx.tar.gz containing all others. my-app-client-sdl-x.xx.tar.gz should contain for ex: my-app-x.xx/my-app-client-sdl-x.xx/THE_CODE my-app-x.xx/shared/COMMONSTUFF and again my-app-server-x.xx.tar.gz should contain: my-app-x.xx/my-app-server-x.xx/THE_SERVER_CODE my-app-x.xx/shared/COMMONSTUFF Is it possible to reach something similar? If not, how can I change things in order to make proper distributions? This mail is already long enough so I'll avoid pasting the existing (configure.ac and Makefile.am)s but can provide them if it's useful. I would be very grateful if someone were to give me any hints; thanks again for your time! Claudio Fontana ______________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
