No problem. It's not always easy for new users to know which is the right one. If your mailer allows it, it would be helpful though if you replied to mails, so that references are kept. Not much of an issue either, though. > i am trying to use a top level configure script in ./ with all sources in > ./src and ./src/gtk2 > > directory : > ----------- > src/main.c > src/gtk1/gtk1.c > > makefile.am : > ------------- > bin_PROGRAMS = mine > mine_SOURCES = src/main.c > > if WITH_GTK1 > mine_sources += src/gtk2/gtk1.c src/gtk2/gtk1.h This should be mine_SOURCES.

This is a very old version. Please update to a new one, current is 1.9.6, but anything above 1.5 should support sources in subdirectories. If you use a distribution, you should just be able to install a newer package. > if i change mine_SOURCES = src/main.c to mine_SOURCES = main.c : > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/mine-0.0.9 $ aclocal -I aclocal.include/ && autoheader && > autoconf && automake && ./configure && make > make: *** No rule to make target `main.c', needed by `main.o'. Stop. That's to be expected. Another note: you may want to use the Automake option subdir-objects. Again, with newer Automake versions, you can stick that into the first argument of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE in configure.ac if you use the new form of that and AC_INIT, or you can stick it into each Makefile.am as AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = subdir-objects Please also see the corresponding Automake documentation about this, you should likely also use AM_PROG_CC_C_O after AC_PROG_CC then.
