The above will not work with newer libtool, I think. (Is your libtool modified to support c++-header?) In general, would it be interesting to enable this for both static and shared builds, right? The precompiled headers for both versions would look different, and thus have to be stored in different directories. Libtool would have to add something like `-I path/to/pch/in/.libs' or similar. Ugly. Other than that, libtool needs to detect .gch. I've heard of other compilers that support precompiled headers. How do they do this? I bet there are slight differences here, right? How does your project cope with compilers that do not support precompiled headers? Regards, Ralf
