Hey all, I'm wondering if there is a best practice for getting paths such as locaeldir or datadir into source code. As it stands now in the Makefile I've got:
prefix= /usr/local datarootdir= ${prefix}/share localedir = ${datarootdir}/locale To get localedir into a source file, I've got a section in Makefile.am like: DEFS = -DLOCALEDIR="\"$(localedir)\"" @DEFS@ (except that I've actually got several - localedir is just a convenient example) It makes things a little ugly. If I just do AC_DEFINE(LOCALEDIR,"${localedir}") I only get #define LOCALEDIR "${datarootdir}/locale" is there a cantrip I'm missing, or a decent way to deal with this? Thanks!
