I'll fix Autoconf-related problems, and that is probably why Lars does not. I'm only looking (rather, honestly, starving! :-) for some peaceful, quiet day to dive into this, but those times are fairly rare in my current life. Yet, don't despair, I'll surely come to these, and no message is lost. -- François Pinard mailto:pinard@iro.umontreal.ca Join the free Translation Project! http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~pinard ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread

I do all sorts of nasty things in my autoconf scripts. Here's a rundown of my aclocal.m4 file for Emacs/W3: AC_EMACS_VERSION - gets the major and minor versions of Emacs. Defines EMACS_VERSION for use in *.in files AC_EMACS_PACKAGES - add the --with-package-dir command line switch. This is XEmacs specific and replaces --prefix and changes prefix, datadir, infodir, and lispdir. AC_XEMACS_P - checks if the EMACS is really XEmacs in disguise. Sets EMACS_FLAVOR to emacs | xemacs, and XEMACS to yes | no. AC_EMACS_LISP() - Execute arbitrary emacs-lisp and get the return value. AC_PATH_LISPDIR - I think I ripped this off from gnus :) Determine where to install the lisp files. Defines `lispdir' for use in *.in files. AC_EMACS_CHECK_LIB(library,function) - Check whether a function exists in a library. Basically does a (progn (fmakunbound function) (require library) (fboundp function)) Defines HAVE_function with yes | no AC_EMACS_CHECK_VAR(library,variable) - As above, but does a (boundp variable) check instead. AC_CHECK_CUSTOM - Perform sanity checking and try to locate custom and widget libraries. Defines CUSTOM for use in *.in files. AC_CHECK_AUTOLOADS - Figure out how to rebuild auto-autoloads.el. These are used in the XEmacs package system. A package should be shipped out with them, and use this macro to rebuild them. If XEmacs is being used it will do the right thing, or 'touch' them if the emacs is not package-capable. You have to have the dependencies right in your lisp/Makefile.in though. Defines REBUILD_AUTOLOADS for use in *.in files. AC_CHECK_CUSTOMLOADS - Figure out how to rebuild custom-load.el. These are used in the XEmacs package system. A package should be shipped out with them, and use this macro to rebuild them. If XEmacs is being used it will do the right thing, or 'touch' them if the emacs is not package-capable. You have to have the depenpdencies right in your lisp/Makefile.in though. Defines REBUILD_CUSTOMLOADS for use in *.in files. You should also be sure to check for the following programs: - makeinfo (faster than using emacs) - installinfo (automatically updates `dir' file, etc) - texi2html (to make html versions of the manual) - if EMACS=t, unset EMACS -Bill P. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread
