Switch for static/ dynamic linking

Hi! I'm planing to include a switch in my configure script to link external libraries static in my project. The question is how to do this? I can't find a good hint in the docs. Is there already an Autoconf macro defined? Or must I create everything by myself? For dynamic linking, I would use

AC_SUBST and AC_CACHE_VAL

same value several times? I guess there is something like sb_cv_foo_set for the cahing mechanism, but where is the difference in testing for that instead of putting the AC_SUBST stuff into the AC_CACHE_CHECK command-to-set section? greetings, Stefan -- Stefan Bienert Zentrum fuer Bioinformatik Un

Hi Ralf, > What does the last line have to do with the ones before that? Oh, I forgot to mention: I have this stuff in a macro. It's meant to check for certain flags and if accepted by the program, the flag is added to the flag-list. Now I have another macro, which invokes the flag checks by AC_R

> Wating for you to implement it. ;-) Well, I suspected something like this...right now I'm on some contrib' to gnulib, then I have promised the automake people to try to help and then I could try to make a satisfying implementation of AS_FOR...wait! I've to clean my flat before everything else ;

Re: pthreads

? This would require including the source of the ACX_PTHREAD macro in the project directory. As far as I understand the whole license thing (I am defenitively not a lawyer) including GPl-Code in your project makes the project GPL... greetings, Stefan -- Stefan Bienert Zentrum fuer

package (making the software accessible to the public), it should be OK to use our own license on the project. Right or not? greetings, Stefan -- Stefan Bienert Zentrum fuer Bioinformatik Universitaet Hamburg Bundesstrasse 43 20146 Hamburg Germany Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: +49 (40) 42838
