Hi, I have a project called CGDB that uses a library from another project called gdbmi. The gdbmi project only creates a library. The two projects are packaged together and look like cgdb/ cgdb/lib/gdbmi/
where cgdb/ has all the stuff for cgdb and cgdb/lib/gdbmi/ is all the stuff for the gdbmi package. The gdbmi project has it's own configure.in script and the CGDB configure.in script does AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([lib/gdbmi]). gdbmi used to use AC_PROG_RANLIB. By doing this, it would create a libgdbmi.a and the CGDB package would do cgdb_LDFLAGS = \ -L$(top_builddir)/lib/gdbmi/src cgdb_DEPENDENCIES = \ $(top_srcdir)/lib/gdbmi/src cgdb_LDADD = ... -lgdbmi ... My first question is, does it even make sense for the cgdb Makefile.am files to use the LDFLAGS, DEPENDENCIES and LDADD variables for a library that is created in a sub configure.in? If this isn't the way to do it, what is? My second question is, now that I'm switching over to libtool, can I still depend on the libgdbmi.a file to be in the gdbmi builddir after I type make? It seems as if libtool creates the libraries during the 'make install' instead of during the make phase. Sorry for all the questions, I'm new to libtool.
