are a few warnings.
* lib/autoconf/autoheader.m4 (AH_VERBATIM, _AH_VERBATIM_OLD):
Quote for Perl '' strings, not "".
* bin/autoheader.in: Invoke autoconf to get '' strings, not ""
strings.
characters is a syntax warning now.
(_AS_QUOTE): Accept $2 as list of characters to quote.
* lib/autoconf/autoheader.m4 (AH_VERBATIM, _AH_VERBATIM_OLD):
Quote for Perl, not sh.
* bin/autoheader.in: When $debug, report the file which is
`do'ne.
* tests/tools.at (autom4te, autoheader): Exercise @bar, not merely
`@', to tickle Perl's lists.
Reported by Carlos Velasco.
longer required can still cause errors.
Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz.
* bin/autom4te.in (&parse_args): Do not prepend `--reload-state'
to frozen files in @ARGV, as @ARGV must remain being a list of
files. Rather, at M4 call sites, use this...
(&files_to_options): New function.
(&freeze): Use &error.
(&up_to_date): If a file that was included according to the cache
is no longer there, then the output is out dated.
(&main): Don't even check whether a file is up to date is anyway
--force is given.
* tests/tools.at (autom4te cache): New.
* bin/autoupdate.in (&parse_args): Kill old options.
* bin/autoreconf.in (&parse_args): Remove dead options.
Factor some code.
(&autoreconf): Report the directories we enter *and leave*, so
that error messages can be easily located, and use GNU Make
format, so that Emacs' compile mode understands us.
* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (&update_file): Use `verbose' to report
if some file was changed instead of `print'.
* bin/autoheader.in: Suggest AC_DEFINE with 3 args when needed.
(&parse_args): Remove the dead options.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_CHECK_AUTOHEADER): Adjust to the new
autoheader's quiet mode.
(AT_CHECK_AUTOUPDATE): Likewise.
* tests/tools.at (autoupdate): Adjust.
* tests/semantics.at (AC_C_BIGENDIAN): Likewise.
aclocal invocation, as Gettext macros might not be visible to
aclocal.
Instead of blindly running autopoint, scan configure.ac (not the
traces) for AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION uses, as autopoint does.
Reported by Paul D. Smith.
autoheader are Perl programs.
(autoconf, autoheader, autoreconf, autoupdate, ifnames, autoscan)
(autom4te): Specify that the sources are in the $srcdir.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Installation Directory Variables): Adjust.
* lib/autoconf/autoconf.m4: Include it.
* lib/autoconf/functions.m4: Use AN_FUNCTION for all the functions
that were listed in the original autoscan.list.
* lib/autoconf/headers.m4: Similarly with headers.
* lib/freeze.mk (autoconf_m4f_dependencies): Add autoscan.m4.
(.m4.m4f): Don't pass --prepend-include, since that's done by
tests/autom4te itself.
* lib/autoscan/Makefile.am: Include freeze.mk.
(autoscan.list): New target --this file is no longer a source.
(autoscan.pre): New file.
Adjust all uses.
(&init_tables): When --debug, report the list of rules to ease
tracking changes in autoscan.list.
* lib/autoscan/autoscan.list (function): Strip comments, sort.
* lib/autoscan/identifiers, lib/autoscan/makevars,
* lib/autoscan/programs: Make the `kind' explicit, i.e., each
`functions' line is now prefixed with `function:'.
* bin/autoscan.in (&init_tables): Adjust.
word: there is no `default' macro for autoscan.
* bin/autoscan.in (&init_tables): Reject entries with no macro at
all.
* lib/autoscan/functions, lib/autoscan/headers: Make the macro
explicit.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Installation Directory Variables): Update.
(Limitations of Make): Some about `Single Suffix Rules and
Separated Dependencies'.
* bin/Makefile.am (autoconf, autoheader, autoreconf, autoupdate)
(ifnames, autoscan, autom4te): Un-factor into several rules.
make handles suffix-rules differently from GNU make.
(SUFFIXES, .in): Remove.
(autoconf autoheader autoreconf autoupdate ifnames autoscan autom4te):
Move the body of the old .in rule here.
(ifnames, autoscan, autom4te): Since we don't only depend on
configure.ac variables (such as VERSION etc.), but also on prefix
and so forth, depend on Makefile, not configure.ac.
Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Installation Directory Variables): Adjust.
(&xsystem): Use WIFEXITED and WEXITSTATUS instead of decoding $? by
hand, which is not portable.
(&error): New.
* bin/autom4te.in: Use them.
Use &error instead of die.
* tests/m4sugar.at (m4_warn, m4_require: circular dependencies):
Adjust.
* bin/autom4te.in: Remove --include-envvar and --site-macro-subdir
options and use $AUTOM4TE_PATH.
* doc/autoconf.texi: Remove documentation of autom4te
--include-envvar and --site-macro-subdir options and document
use of $AUTOM4TE_PATH.
* lib/autom4te.in: Remove --include-envvar and --site-macro-subdir
arguments from each language section.
