(_AC_CONFIG_COMMAND, _AC_CONFIG_LINK): New.
Use dnl, not the KILL diversion.
Extracted from...
(AC_CONFIG_FILES, AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS)
(AC_CONFIG_LINKS): here.
Adjust.
Don't use the KILL diversion, as it kills spurious output, which
results in failures being hidden.
Use m4_defn where appropriate.
(AC_CONFIG_IF_MEMBER): Kill the real bug: a spurious parenthesis
after the second argument.
Use m4_defn.
* lib/autom4te.in (Autoconf, Autotest, M4sh): Don't pass --warning
syntax, as it is provided by M4sugar.
* tests/torture.at (Multiple AC_CONFIG_FILES): New.
(_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_REJECT): New.
Also recognize *.bb and *.bbg as compilation byproducts.
(_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT, _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_O)
(_AC_COMPILER_OBJEXT): Use them.
Fixes Debian #138666.
Create at_test_all by a series of assignments,
not by a single assignment of a long string. The latter causes ksh
version 11/16/88g to silently misbehave on OpenServer 5.0.6a,
presumably because of a buffer overrun.
(AS_MKDIR_P): Require it. Use mkdir -p if available, falling
back on AS_DIRNAME to compute prefixes otherwise; this is
roughly what mkinstalldirs does. That way, we need not have
our own filename disassembler. The old disassembler did not
work with Solaris 8 dtksh, which is ksh Version M-12/28/93d.
and host is irrelevant.
(Specifying Names, Canonicalizing): Remove all references to the
backward compatibility hooks. Rather, collect them all into...
(Hosts and Cross-Compilation): this new section.
* doc/install.texi (System Type): Ditto.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_CANONICAL_HOST): Explicitly state
that `--host' implies cross-compilation.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 (m4_lquote): Remove, it is totally
useless.
(_m4_foreach): Define the variant with immediate evaluation so
that it contains exactly the items, not an expression which
evaluation is the current item.
(m4_re_string, m4_re_word): Don't over quote them.
`foreach' loops immediately evaluate them.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 (m4_quote, m4_dquote): Use $@ rather than
$*. This is the n-th time I change my mind, but hopefully this is
the last...
(m4_lquote): New.
(m4_text_wrap): Use m4_foreach, which is finally correct _and_
efficient.
(m4_foreach_quoted, m4_car_quoted, _m4_foreach_quoted): Remove, as
it was only a hack for m4_text_wrap.
(m4_car2): Remove, replaced by...
(m4_cdr): New.
(_m4_foreach): Adjust.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Adjust, and use
m4_bpatsubst for clarification.
AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM fails with dashed program names
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM): Just use a fresh
variable when looking for the prefix program.
Now it also works for shell variables.
optional are the sum of the previous files on the command line'.
Also, pass `--reload-state=' on them, so...
(handle_m4): don't.
* lib/autom4te.in (Autotest, Autoconf): Rely on M4sh.
(M4sh): Rely on M4sugar.
(Autotest, M4sh, M4sugar): Use frozen files.
AUTOTEST_PATH *after* it was set.
Don't put `.' in the PATH: the user should be precise and `./' if
needed. In addition, given that the test suite does some `cd', if
`.' is in the path, the `tested programs' sections will report
programs found in the test suite's directory, while during the
tests (performed in their own directory), these programs are no
longer visible. In other words, the results is confusing and
useless.
* tests/m4sh.at: Adjust: don't rely on `.' being in the PATH.
package.m4, since is really depends upon configure.ac, not
configure.
* doc/autoconf.texi (testsuite Scripts): Adjust.
* tests/Makefile.am (package.m4): New.
EXTRA_DIST it since its a source.
of PACKAGE_NAME, PACKAGE_TARNAME, PACKAGE_VERSION, PACKAGE_STRING,
and PACKAGE_BUGREPORT from here...
(_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS): to here, since it is unrelated to the
arguments.
(_AC_INIT_PREPARE): AC_DEFINE these symbols.
* lib/autotest/general.m4: Use AT_PACKAGE_*, not PACKAGE_*.
(AT_INIT): No longer catch `^PACKAGE_(BUGREPORT|STRING)$'.
* tests/tools.at (autoheader): Adjust.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_CHECK_DEFINES): Adjust.
trailing files, don't apply `-rf' to files which might not be
created by configure (core, core.*, and *.core), but just `rm -f'.
Suggested by Jonathan Kamens.
Remove, replaced by...
* tests/wrappl.in: Be common for all the Perl executables.
In particular autoscan and autoheader want -I.
* configure.ac: Adjust.
* lib/autoscan/headers: errno.h is portable.
directives.
(&scan_sh_file): Remove a duplicate pattern.
(&check_configure_ac): Use long options.
* lib/autoscan/headers (alloca.h): Check with AC_FUNC_ALLOCA.
* lib/autoconf/autotest.m4 (AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR): Replace srcdir,
top_srcdir and top_builddir with at_srcdir, at_top_srcdir and
at_top_builddir.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Compute srcdir,
top_srcdir, builddir and top_builddir.
Use `at_*dir' relatively to the directory containing the
suite, use `*dir' when relatively to the current group dir.
static, to catch errors if the value isn't known at compile-time
and the compiler supports dynamic arrays. Change its name from
`_array_' to `test_array' to avoid potential name clashes.
(AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE): Make it a compile-time test, not a run-time
test. Do not define HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE if `long double' is no
better than double. Catch a bug in GCC 2.95.2 x86.
variable names when referring to a single test group, or to
`suite' when referring to the whole test suite.
`at_last_test' is removed: m4 compute at_format itself.
(at_stdout, at_stder1, at_stderr): New variables.
(AT_CHECK): Use them.
in PATH.
Create `testsuite.dir/003/run' instead of `testsuite.003'.
Do it as soon as a test fails, don't wait till the end of the test
suite.
Don't remove $as_me.[0-9]*, since these files no longer exist.
need to list the files to remove at the end of tests groups.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (_AT_CLEANUP_FILE, AT_CLEANUP_FILES):
(AT_data_files, at_data_files): Remove.
(AT_CLEANUP, AT_DATA): Simplify.
(AT_INIT): Adjust.
Remove the group dir if !debug && !failed.
* tests/atspecific.m4: Adjust.
`testsuite.dir' in which the at-check-line etc. files are to be
found, and `testsuite.dir/003' where the test group 3 is run.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): at_tests_dir,
at_check_line_file, at_format, at_test_normalized, at_group_dir
are new variables.
Create the directories.
Use absolute paths for at- files.
(AT_CHECK): Adjust.
* lib/autoconf/functions.m4, lib/autoconf/general.m4,
* lib/autoconf/headers.m4, lib/autoconf/libs.m4,
* lib/autoconf/programs.m4, lib/autoconf/specific.m4,
* lib/autoconf/types.m4: When invoking AC_DEFINE and friends,
specify to what the macro should be defined (typically to 1).
AC_TRY_EVAL to run $LEX, not AC_TRY_COMMAND. This validates the
definition used by Automake where LEX is +/- "${missing} lex" and
`missing' itself contains variables.
(&file_name_is_absolute): New, wrappers around routines from
File::Spec.
Use and export them.
(&find_configure_ac): Optionally take a directory where to look at.
* bin/autoreconf.in (&parse_args): Trim the configure.ac part of
the arguments.
Default @ARGV to `.', not find_configure_ac.
(&autoreconf): Argument is a directory.
Trace AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS and schedule the subdirs for autoreconf'ing.
* doc/autoconf.texi (autoreconf Invocation): Update.
(@export_forward_subs): New.
Add basename, dirname, and fileparse.
(@EXPORT): Adjust.
* bin/autoreconf.in (&autoreconf): Fix call to fileparse.
Don't look for aclocal flags if we already know aclocal is not
used.
Move aclocal.m4t only if it exists.
Reported by Ezra Peisach.
work even if there are multiple instances of $LINENO on the same line.
Do not substitute for other variables like $LINENOT. Do not check
file dates; such a check is unreliable on sufficiently fast machines,
and removing the check makes the code simpler and more reliable.
Check for output and chmod failures.
ac_cv_func_strerror_r_char_p, and rename HAVE_WORKING_STRERROR_R to
STRERROR_R_CHAR_P, since POSIX decided to standardize on the int
flavor of strerror_r. Always do char* test, as there's no reason not
to. Assign to a char* var, to catch strerror_r that returns int*.
unchanged, remove the source.
(&up_to_date_p): Don't be verbose, be debug.
* bin/autoreconf.in: No longer support --m4dir.
(&autoreconf): Display the full path of the configure.ac we are
studying.
Trace it only once.
Be sure to honor --force with gettextize.
Always run aclocal.
* doc/autoconf.texi: Adjust.
