multiple subdirectories for single library (F77 support)

I have successfully used automake-1.4d to build a single library using multiple subdirectories using: lib_LIBRARIES = libjunk.a libjunk_a_SOURCES = src/a/a.c src/b/b.c But if one of the source is a FORTRAN source, it will not work :-( Is this a simple or difficult fix? I really love this capab

automake/54

I think the line at 1260 from automake-1.4d in the function handle_single_transform_list: 1260 &require_file ($FOREIGN, 'compile') 1261 if $lang eq 'c'; should instead read: 1260 &require_config_file ($FOREIGN, 'compile') 1261

Making a single library from multiple source directories

I have a deep package, but each library is on par with a single directory, so liba_SOURCES, etc. works fine. But now I have a situation in which, the library contains many different parts and contains a lot of source. What is the best way using automake to accomplish this? I could dump them all

Macro quoting

Unless, I am reading the manual (2.49c) wrong the following is prefered: AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([config]) to AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR(config) With automake-1.4d, in the first case the configure directory is `[config]' rather than `config'. $ ../../devel/bin/automake automake: configure.ac: required file

automake understand new AC_OUTPUT

I am wondering if the new preferred way of an empty AC_OUTPUT and use of AC_CONFIG_FILES in autoconf-2.49c is presently known to automake-1.4d or does automake still require the old way of doing AC_OUTPUT. Thanks. Paul

spurious output for dependency checking

Using the CVS version of automake, I am getting spurious output from the dependency checking /usr/local/share/aclocal/depend.m4 line 50. Normally, I am getting this: checking dependency style of cc... conftest.o: conftest.c conftest.o: conftest.h sgi But, if I redirect the stdout and stderr to

making pre-build headers

I am using automake/autoconf and am in a situation in which I need to use a program to generate a header file using a template file before I can compile the program. Has anyone encountered a similiar situation? What is the best way to accomplish this? Suggestions. Thanks, Paul

missing.m4 in CVS

I am getting an error running my configure script using the lastest CVS of automake. configure[832]: syntax error at line 836 : `<<' unexpected 830 test x"${MISSING+set}" = xset || \ 831 MISSING="\${SHELL} `CDPATH=: && cd $ac_aux_dir && pwd`/missing" 832 if eval "$MISSING --run :
