It seems like what is needed is C# support in libtool. This should be
discussed on the libtool list. Be aware that libtool evolves slowly
so there is no "quick solution" with it. If someone contributes C#
patches to libtool, then perhaps libtool would support it some number
of months later, or longer, depending on how invasive and risky the
patches are.
My current makefile looks like:
=====================================================
.dll.cs:
mkdir .libs
$(CSCOMP) -v -unsafe -nologo -out:./.libs/$@ -target:library $<
pkglib_LIBRARIES = csmsgque.dll
csmsgque_dll_sources = csmsgque.cs
=====================================================
but I get the following error
csmsgque/Makefile.am:17: `csmsgque.dll' is not a standard library name
csmsgque/Makefile.am:17: did you mean `libcsmsgque.a'?
Since Automake does not know how to build DLLs (other than via
libtool), you won't be able to use pkglib_LIBRARIES for this purpose.
You may still be able to work around the problem as long as you avoid
using Automake reserved variable names with well defined
functionality.
