Raw Blame History

2002-03-26 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Portable Shell): Add pointers to FAQs.
2002-03-26 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Introduction): The GNATS base moved.
2002-03-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* tests/m4sh.at: Don't rely on "PATH=test:$PATH test-1" working
as POSIX requires, as it doesn't work with Zsh.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Assignments): Document the problem.
2002-03-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Limitations of Make): Mention more issue
about VPATH, overriding of macros in sub-makes, and handling of
SHELL.
2002-03-21 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Here-Documents): Mention Solaris 8 dtksh
problem with here-document buffer boundaries.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_LINENO_PREPARE): Unset ENV and BASH_ENV
when reinvoking the shell, to work around problems with installers
who put strange things like "cd" commands in their environments.
2002-03-19 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* tests/semantics.at (AC_C_BIGENDIAN): s/unknow/unknown/.
From Aaron Ucko.
2002-03-19 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autoscan.in (scan_file): Specify the location in `&used'
invocations.
From Nicolas Joly.
2002-03-19 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi: Adjust @code/@command, @xref/@ref usage.
From Nishio Futoshi.
2002-03-19 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 (m4_define_default, m4_fst, m4_map): New.
2002-03-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Programming in M4sh): Add AS_MKDIR_P.
(Limitations of Usual Tools): Add mkdir section.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_MKDIR_P_PREPARE): New macro.
(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.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT, AT_CLEANUP):
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.
2002-03-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (at_times_skip):
Renamed from at_times. Now a boolean.
ksh93 Version M-12/28/93d doesn't like 'x=times; $x'; it
says 'times: not found'.
2002-03-14 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autoreconf.in (&study_gettextize): New.
(&autoreconf): Handle newest gettextize.
Rerun aclocal if needed.
Suggested by Andreas Schwab.
2002-03-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Special Shell Variables): More about IFS.
2002-03-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Header Portability): New.
Add information about stdint.h and inttypes.h from Paul Eggert.
2002-03-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Limitations of Usual Tools): Some about `cp
-p'.
From Bob Proulx.
2002-03-12 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_BASENAME_EXPR): AS_REQUIRE, not
m4_require.
2002-03-11 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>
* configure.ac: Explicitly check for EMACS since AM_PATH_LISPDIR
does not do it if --with-lispdir is given.
2002-03-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Version 2.53.
2002-03-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Subdirectories): Clarify that the
subdirectory should exist.
2002-03-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): 1.6.
2002-03-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autom4te.in (&handle_m4): Do not foreach with `$_' as it
aliases the actual variables, and modifications of the former
affect the latter.
2002-03-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autom4te.in (&handle_m4): Protect us from corrupted file
because of C-c: have m4 output in tmp files, then mv them.
2002-03-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autoconf.in, bin/autoheader.in, bin/autom4te.in,
* bin/autoreconf.in, bin/autoscan.in, bin/autoupdate.in,
* bin/ifnames.in: Copyright update.
2002-03-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Invoking autom4te): New.
2002-03-05 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Specifying Names): Clarification suggested by
Kevin Ryde.
2002-03-05 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Version 2.52i.
2002-03-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (AC_LIBOBJ vs. LIBOBJS): New.

message for LIBOBJ.
2002-03-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/freeze.mk ($(build_libdir)/m4sugar/version.m4): New, for
parallel builds.
2002-03-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Transforming Names): Equality between target
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.
2002-03-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Evaluation Macros): New.
* 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.
2002-03-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Instead of having stacking `shift's evaluated at the end, let
`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.
2002-03-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

lib/autoconf/functions.m4, lib/autoconf/general.m4,
lib/autoconf/headers.m4, lib/autoconf/lang.m4,
lib/autoconf/programs.m4, lib/autoconf/status.m4: Improve spelling
of messages.
2002-02-28 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Suggest a title to the
message to be sent.
2002-02-28 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Function Portability): Add va_copy and va_list.

case/esac.
2002-02-06 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

is not available.
2002-02-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Specific Compiler Characteristics):
Describe HP-UX cc bug workaround more accurately.
* lib/autoconf/types.m4 (AC_CHECK_SIZEOF): Cast to long,
not unsigned long.
* tests/semantics.at (AC_CHECK_SIZEOF): Check non-GCC
cross-compilers, too. This undoes some of the most recent change
to this file.
2002-02-05 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* tests/Makefile.am (check_SCRIPTS): Use it, instead of WRAPPERS,
to make sure they are up to date when `check' is run.
2002-02-05 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Making testsuite Scripts): Document
package.m4.
2002-02-05 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/freeze.mk: New.
2002-02-05 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Implement `autom4te --freeze'.
* bin/autom4te.in (&freeze): New.
* lib/autoconf/autoconf.m4, lib/autotest/general.m4,
* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4: Don't include files given by autom4te.
2002-02-05 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autom4te.in (&parse_args): Implement `frozen files are
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.
2002-01-31 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PACKAGE): Accept $4.

2002-01-30 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PACKAGE): Map non
alphanumeric to `-' instead of `_'.
2002-01-30 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* tests/semantics.at (AC_CHECK_SIZEOF): Split into two tests: one
for plain code, the other for cross-compilation code. The latter

so that aclocal 1.4 works.
Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz and Larry Schmitt.
2002-01-28 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Writing testsuite.at): AT_CLEANUP no longer
needs an argument.
2002-01-28 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Don't be ridiculous: adjust
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.
2002-01-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Version 2.52g.

Bourne. Use /bin/sh.
From Andreas Buening.
2002-01-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* config/config.guess, config/config.sub, config/texinfo.tex:
Update from masters.
2002-01-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): 1.5b.
* config/auxdir.m4, config/cond.m4, config/depend.m4,
* config/init.m4, config/install-sh.m4, config/lispdir.m4,
* config/missing.m4, config/sanity.m4, config/select.m4,
* config/strip.m4: Remove, to ease sync'ing with any version of
Automake.
2002-01-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS)
(_AC_INIT_PREPARE): Support -n as --no-create, as documented.
Reported by Geir Ove Myhr.
2002-01-21 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (AC_FUNC_MMAP): #Undef malloc.
2002-01-21 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (getopt): Use a more GNUish error
message on invalid options.
* bin/autom4te.in (parse_args): Don't use
Autoconf::General::getopt with non valid options.
2002-01-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
* lib/autoconf/lang.m4 (_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT): Initialize
$ac_cv_exeext so we don't use an old, invalid, cached value.
2002-01-11 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (AC_FUNC_STRNLEN): New, from Jim
Meyering.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Function Portability): Document the strnlen
limitation.
(Particular Functions): Document AC_FUNC_STRNLEN.
* lib/autoscan/functions: Adjust.
2002-01-06 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/autotest.m4 (AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR): Don't create
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.
2002-01-06 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS): Move the AC_SUBST
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_*.

2002-01-06 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

* doc/autoconf.texi (Function Portability): Add notes on sscanf
sometimes needing writable input.
2001-12-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
* doc/autoconf.texi (New Macros): Tweak wording.
2001-12-14 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PREPARE): We cleaning up the
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.
2001-12-14 Aaron M. Ucko <amu@alum.mit.edu>
* lib/autoconf/general.m4: Avoid duplicates in `$ac_configure_args'.

2001-12-13 Peter Eisentraut <peter_e@gmx.net>

abs_srcdir, top_srcpath to abs_top_srcdir.
(_AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Adjust.
* NEWS, doc/autoconf.texi, lib/autoconf/autotest.m4,
* tests/atspecific.m4, tests/autoreconf.in, tests/tools.at,
* tests/wrappl.in, tests/wrapsh.in: Adjust.
2001-12-12 Steven G. Johnson <stevenj@alum.mit.edu>
* lib/autoconf/fortran.m4 (_AC_PROG_F77_V_OUTPUT): Fix failed
C/Fortran linking on HP/UX, by extracting the Fortran library
search path from the LPATH line in the $F77 -v output.
2001-12-12 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
* doc/autoconf.texi (File Descriptors): Use a clearer layout for the
forbidden file descriptors table.
2001-11-26 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autoscan.in (%c_keywords): Build it at top level.
Map to 1 in order to simplify its uses.
2001-11-26 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autoscan.in (&scan_c_file, &scan_sh_file, &scan_makefile):
Remove $filepath, useless.
(&scan_makefile): Don't remove the $(FOO), ${FOO} and @FOO@
variables, they are really part of the tokens.
Split the input line on spaces and then look for tokens.
Now autoscan ceases to ask for AC_PROG_LEX for the package Bison
because of `lex$U.$(OBJEXT)'.
(&scan_files): Use "@list" instead of join.
* doc/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Add *.fns.
2001-11-26 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

* lib/autoscan/headers (alloca.h): Check with AC_FUNC_ALLOCA.
2001-11-26 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autoscan.in (scan_c_file): Fix the handling of C comments.
Before, having a line containing the opening of a multi line
comment made the whole line be ignored.
2001-11-26 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Using an Autotest Test Suite): New.
(testsuite Scripts): Be one of its subsection.
(Autotest Logs): New.
2001-11-26 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Test groups are now run two directories deeper.
* 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.
2001-11-25 Joseph S. Myers <jsm28@cam.ac.uk>
* doc/autoconf.texi, TODO, lib/autoconf/fortran.m4,
lib/autoconf/functions.m4, lib/autoconf/headers.m4,
tests/atgeneral.m4, tests/tools.at, tests/atspecific.m4: Fix
spelling errors.
2001-11-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Using System Type): Add an example of `case
$host' usage so people quit using `case $target' everywhere.
2001-11-22 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Installation Directory Variables): Englishoes
spotted by Jim Meyering.
2001-11-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
This patch implements a `long double' suggestion by Oliver Kiddle.
* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_LANG_BOOL_COMPILE_TRY(C)): Make the array
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.
* doc/autoconf.texi (C Compiler): Document the above.
* NEWS: Likewise.
2001-11-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* tests/m4sh.at (LINENO): Protect from autom4te's substitution by
hand.
* tests/tools.at: Don't protect dnl, AT_DATA_M4SH does.
2001-11-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): After having run the test
group, go back to the initial directory, not to at_suite_dir.
2001-11-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_DATA_M4SUGAR, AT_DATA_M4SH)
(AT_DATA_AUTOCONF): Also protect @&t@ from autom4te.
(AT_CHECK_AUTOCONF, AT_CHECK_AUTOHEADER): Pass no --include
option.
(AT_CHECK_CONFIGURE): Use absolute paths.
(_AT_CHECK_AC_MACRO): Create aclocal.m4 with AC_STATE_SAVE in it.
The problem is still the old one: there is no means in M4 (that I
know about) to create a defining macro, because there is no means
to create `$1' etc., therefore, the defining macro ``swallows''
all the arguments meant to the defined macro.
2001-11-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_DATA_AUTOCONF): New.
(AT_CONFIGURE_AC): Output the definition of AC_STATE_SAVE in
configure.ac.
* tests/aclocal.m4: Remove, as it is no longer used.
2001-11-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autotest/general.m4: Change `tests?' into `groups?' in
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.
2001-11-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Be sure to put `.', relative,
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.
2001-11-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* tests/tools.at: Use absolute paths, since we are no longer run
in place.
2001-11-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Now that tests are running in their own private dir, there is no
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.
2001-11-13 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Start a new layout for Autotest: `testsuite' creates
`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.

with stricter rules on LIBOBJS.
2001-11-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>

* lib/autoconf/programs.m4 (_AC_PROG_LEX_YYTEXT_DECL): Use
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.
2001-11-12 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Push KILL at the end.
Now that M4sh pushes BODY, the comments were output at the end of
the test suites.

* bin/autoreconf.in (&autoreconf): Run aclocal before tracing, so
that we can trace macros from aclocal.m4.
Trace AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, not AM_PROG_LIBTOOL, since the latter is
obsoleted, and redirect to the former anyway.
Reported by Ralf Corsepius.
2001-11-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autoreconf.in (&autoreconf): AC_CONFIG_SUBIDRS are to be
processed only if present.

Add a nonexistent subdirectory to exercise the patch above.
Reported by Ralf Corsepius.

File::Spec.
Use and export them.

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.
2001-11-03 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

Don't run aclocal when aclocal.m4 is not from aclocal.
From Ezra Peisach.
Don't run libtoolize and gettextize if --install is not given.
2001-11-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_SHELL_SANITIZE): _AS_CR_PREPARE needs to
be invoked before _AS_LINENO_PREPARE.
(_AS_LINENO_PREPARE): Use as_cr_digits and as_cr_alnum rather
than character ranges.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_SHELL_SANITIZE): Fix NLS before
invoking AS_BASENAME. Set the locale variables to 'C' if
possible, as POSIX requires this to get the traditional
behavior.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Special Shell Variables): Describe the above.
2001-10-31 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_LINENO_WORKS): Do not surround body
with {}, as that triggers a bug in Bash 2.05.
(_AS_LINENO_PREPARE): Use Sed rather than
Awk. Fix the sed prepass to 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.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Special Shell Variables): Document
the above.
2001-10-31 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* tests/Makefile.am (atconfig): Remove this target, Automake
handles it now.
2001-10-31 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/autotest.m4 (AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR): Do not
AC_CONFIG_FILES(atlocal) as it means a file atlocal.in *must* be
provided, while it is optional.
* configure.ac: Adjust.
2001-10-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* NEWS, README, configure.ac, lib/Autom4te/General.pm,
lib/Autom4te/Struct.pm:
Require Perl 5.005_03 instead of just 5.005, as some tests fail
with 5.005_02.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Special Shell Variables): Document some
more LINENO gotchas, particularly with respect to the Awk+Sed hack.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_LINENO_WORKS): New macro.
(_AS_LINENO_PREPARE): Use it instead of shell eval, since
eval $LINENO is not portable in practice.
2001-10-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

2001-10-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R):
Rename ac_cv_func_strerror_r_works to 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*.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Particular Functions):
Document the above changes. Also, document the fact that
AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R defines HAVE_DECL_STRERROR_R.
* NEWS: Mention HAVE_WORKING_STRERROR_R -> STRERROR_R_CHAR_P.
2001-10-20 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

* bin/autoheader.in ($localdir, $m4, $SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX):

(AS_BASENAME_EXPR): New macro.
(AS_BASENAME_SED): Do not assume GNU sed semantics.
(AS_BASENAME): Use 'basename' if that works; then try 'expr';
and fall back on 'sed' only if the other two fail. This makes
AS_BASENAME act more like AS_DIRNAME.
(as_me): Shell-quote the argument of AS_BASENAME, in case $0
contains white space.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_SRCDIR):
Use AS_DIRNAME, since I think it's now DOS-friendly.
* tests/m4sh.at (DIRNAME_TEST): New arg $3.
Allow "dirname //FOO" to return either / or //, as POSIX allows
either behavior.
2001-10-10 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

2001-10-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>

now merely checks whether it is an error to pass an argument
to getpgrp.
* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (_AC_FUNC_GETPGRP_TEST): Remove.
(AC_FUNC_GETPGRP): Don't bother with a runtime test. Just check
whether it is a (compile-time) error to pass an argument to

added test. It now correctly handles /1/2/3/, returning '3' not ''.

* tests/base.at: Fixed the expected responses. The old ones were
one line out...
* lib/autoconf/general.m4: Fixed AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM, it now behaves as
the documentation claims it should (and how it behaved in 2.13).
2001-09-18 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

2001-09-17 Bruno Haible <haible@ilog.fr>
* lib/autoconf/c.m4: (AC_LANG_INT_SAVE(C)):
Always include <stdio.h> and <stdlib.h>. Evaluate
the expression in an extra function before these includes. Call
fprintf "%d" only after ensuring the argument is of type 'int'.

2001-09-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
Fix bug reported by Paul Townsend on AIX 4.3.3.0 with CFLAGS=-O4
or CFLAGS=-O5. In that case, the linker has a relaxed view of
fatal errors, and AC_CHECK_LIB causes it to include libraries even
when they don't exist.
* lib/autoconf/headers.m4 (AC_HEADER_DIRENT): Use AC_SEARCH_LIBS,
not AC_CHECK_LIB, so that we don't use -ldir or -lx if we don't
need it.
* lib/autoconf/specific.m4 (AC_ISC_POSIX): Replace the old, crufty
version with the version used by fileutils 4.1, except use
AC_SEARCH_LIBS, not AC_CHECK_LIB, so that we don't use -lcposix if

* bin/autoupdate.in, bin/autoheader.in: Adjust.
Drop AC_MACRODIR dead for real.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_CHECK_AUTOHEADER): Now autoheader says
`autoheader: `config.hin' is created'.
* tests/tools.at (Syntax of the Perl scripts): Check autoheader.
2001-08-31 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autoheader.in: Rewrite in Perl.
* tests/autoheader: Adjust.
2001-08-31 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autoconf.in (--include, -I): New option.
Map --localdir, --autoconf-dir onto it.
Forward autom4te's options instead of interpreting them.
* bin/autoconf.in, bin/autoheader.in (AC_MACRODIR, autoconf_dir):
There is no such envvar since the inception of autom4te.cfg.

Pass `autoconf_dir' via options, not via invisible envvars.
* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (&find_peer): Remove.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): `AUTOTEST_PATH=a:b' gives

find the executables for it.
* tests/Makefile.am: Major cleanup. Too lazy to document...
* tests/atlocal.in: Remove all the obscure envvar manipulations.
We only need PERL.
* tests/atspecific.m4, tests/tools.at: Passing --localdir is
indeed related to running the test suite, while passing
--autoconf-dir and others is related to running non installed
Autoconf executables. So don't do that, leave it to...

* tests/autoscan: New.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_CHECK_M4SUGAR, AT_CHECK_M4SH): Don't

Suggested by Paul Eggert.
2001-08-29 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

classified as an Autoconf macro.

2001-08-12 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
* tests/semantics.at (AC_C_BIGENDIAN): New test.
2001-08-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_C_BIGENDIAN): Handle ACTION-IF-TRUE,
ACTION-IF-FALSE, and ACTION-IF-UNKNOWN.
* doc/autoconf.texi (C Compiler Characteristics): Update
documentation for AC_C_BIGENDIAN.
2001-08-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_C_BIGENDIAN): Guess endianness by grep'ing
magic values from an object file when cross-compiling.
Based on code by Guido Draheim <Guido.Draheim@gmx.de>.
2001-08-10 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autom4te.in (&handle_output): Don't use `grep' with side
effects.
Suggested by Russ Allbery.
2001-08-10 Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_SUBDIRS): Propagate the
current $prefix to the sub-configures.
2001-08-09 Tim Van Holder <tim.van.holder@pandora.be>
* lib/autoconf/lang.m4: Ignore *.xSYM when looking for an executable
extension (needed on BeOS). Reported by Guido van Rossum.
2001-08-09 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autom4te.in ($icache): Load it only if older than autom4te.
2001-08-07 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): All the `at-*' are to be
removed.
(at-setup-line): Huh? Be a variable `at_setup_line', not a file.
No need to remove the files before and after the each test, before
each test and at the end of the suite is enough.
Display only the children `times', not the shell's.
If the test failed or was skipped, at-times is not available.
2001-08-07 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Always produce testsuite.log, including when there are no
failures. This helps getting information on skipped tests, and
duration of the tests. Err, implement the latter btw.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Set up fd 6 for the log.
Dump information on the first run of each test.
(AT_CLEANUP): Create `at-times' containing the duration of the
test group.
2001-08-07 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
The use of `dumpstat' revealed that `len' was used although it
should not. m4_text_wrap was using it, but in the Autoconf world
where it is legal. Hence (i) test M4sh in its own world, not
Autoconf's, and (ii), ahem, fix the bug :)
* lib/autotest/general.m4: Be sure the set good quotes, as tracing
does not like `' instead of [].
(AT_INIT): Forbid `^_?AT_'.
And don't output such tokens.
* tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Add `script', `script.s4g',
`script.as', and `autom4te.cache'.
Remove `empty' and `macro' which are no longer used.
* tests/atspecific.m4 (AT_CHECK_M4SUGAR, AT_CHECK_M4SH): New.
* tests/m4sugar.at: Use it.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4: Use `m4_len' not `len'.
2001-08-07 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autoconf.in, bin/autoheader.in: --force, -f is a new option.
2001-08-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>

2001-08-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (AC_FUNC_ALLOCA, AC_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE)
(AC_FUNC_FSEEKO, AC_FUNC_OBSTACK): Use AC_LANG_IFELSE, not
AC_TRY_LINK.
* lib/autoconf/headers.m4 (AC_HEADER_MAJOR): Likewise.
* lib/autoconf/fortran.m4 (_AC_LANG_PROGRAM_C_F77_HOOKS)
(AC_F77_MAIN): Likewise.
2001-08-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Don't rely on M4sugar outputting the patterns in files, since we
might process the output _without_ running m4, hence without these
files.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 (m4_init): No need for `m4_tmpdir'.
* bin/autom4te.in (@Request::includes): Remove, unused.
(@Request::source): Rename as...
(@Request::input): this.
(@preselect): Add `m4_pattern_forbid' and `m4_pattern_allow'.
(&handle_output): Fetch the patterns from the traces.
`$forbidden' and `$allowed' are constant: use m//o.
(&handle_m4): M4sugar no longer wants `m4_tmpdir'.
(m4_pattern_forbid, m4_pattern_allow): Adjust for tracing only.
2001-08-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
`autoconf && autoheader' is sped up. Now, speed up `autoheader &&
autoconf', i.e., in addition to caching traces, cache the output.

(Request::id): this.
($cache, $icache, $tcache, $ocache): New.
(&handle_m4): Save M4 output in the cache instead of $tmp.
(&handle_output): Adjust.
(&up_to_date_p): Check that the output cache is up to date too.
(top level): Run `&handle_m4' iff force or the cache is invalid.
Run `&handle_output' if the output cache is more recent.
2001-08-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* bin/autom4te.in ($force): New.
(&parse_args, &print_usage): -f, --force is a new option.
(&handle_output): CPP directives might have spaces after `#'.
(&parse_args): The first file only can be frozen.
2001-08-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Don't let autom4te compute the `include' traces several times:
first check that the trace cache file is up to date, and then
compare its timestamp with that of the output.
* bin/autom4te.in, bin/autoupdate.in, bin/autoscan.in: Normalize
the preamble. Don't require 5.005 as Autom4te::General does it,
and better yet (use `use', not `require'!).
* lib/Autom4te/Struct.pm: Rename the last occurrences of
Class::Struct as Autom4te::Struct.
* lib/Autom4te/General.pm (File::stat): Use it.
(&mtime): New, export it.
* bin/autom4te.in: Use it.
Declare `$req' is invalid if it is outdated.
Don't declare it valid before saving it if something went wrong.
2001-08-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Autom4te shall not encode Autoconf data, and preselecting traces
must be proposed to the users.
* bin/autom4te.in (@required_trace): Remove.
(@preselect): New.
(&parse_args, &print_usage): -p, --preselect is a new option.
(&up_to_date_p): Adjust.
* bin/autoconf.in: Preselect some Autoconf macros.
2001-08-04 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* tests/tools.at (autoconf --trace: user macros): Check traces on
macros invoked without arguments, and macros invoked with multiple
lines arguments.
2001-08-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
* bin/autom4te.in (handle_traces): Fix rewriting of traces without
arguments.
2001-08-03 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

m4_if, and m4_wrap.
2001-08-03 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 (m4_init): Also forbid `_m4_*' tokens.
(m4_divert_pop): Dump the whole diversion stack when a diversion
mismatch happens.
* bin/autom4te.in (&handle_output): Remember of the first
occurrence of a possibly undefined macro, not the last.
Complain about the possibly undefined macros in the same order as
the appear in the output.
* lib/autoconf/Makefile.am (autoconf.m4f): List its dependencies.
* tests/tools.at (autoconf: forbidden tokens, basic)
(autoconf: forbidden tokens, exceptions): No longer sort
autoconf's stderr, as it is now deterministic.
Check that `dnl' is caught.
2001-08-01 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* configure.ac: Bump to 2.52c.
