Sorry I forgot to mention the files in EXTRA_DIST are to be packed into release package. All the cpp files mentioned here already exists and are to be compiled and released. If I put all cpp files in _SOURCES, the EXTRA_DIST files are not released. The only way I've found is to put only one cpp file in _SOURCES, while others to EXTRA_DIST and add .o to _LIBADD. My goal is to build all the .cpp and put all .cpp, .txt, .rc into release package.
Okay, I understand the problem now. But there's not enough information in the snippet you posted to determine the cause. Can you post the entire Makefile.am file? Or at least a smaller example that reproduces the problem. There's nothing that I can see in the portion of your file that you posted that would be the cause of such a problem.

------------------------------------- And can I ask another question? I want to build some source code files into this library and need to distribute some other files, too. But EXTRA_DIST in Makefile.am does not work as below, lib_LTLIBRARIES = libezcommon.la ... libezcommon_la_SOURCES = ezcommon.cpp tinystr.cpp ... EXTRA_DIST = tinyxml.txt ezcommon.rc ... If I write only one file in libezcommon_la_SOURCES, while adding others to EXTRA_DIST and others' .o to libezcommon_la_LIBADD, it works. I don't know why.
