libtool/ChangeLog

Thu Jan 16 17:57:38 1997  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): If linking with $link_static_flag fails,
 	then retry without it, but still use the .a versions of
 	uninstalled libtool archives.

Wed Jan 15 08:59:22 1997  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Eval $link_static_flag.  Reported by Bruno
	Haible.

	* PLATFORMS: Add to distribution.  Suggested by Bruno Haible.

Mon Jan 13 12:59:29 1997  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Add support for SCO OpenServer 5.x.

	(can_build_shared): Initialize at the top of the file, so that
 	shared libraries aren't built on platforms that don't support
 	them.

Sat Jan 11 13:29:08 1997  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in, libtoolize.in, doc/libtool.texi:
 	Update the copyright completion years.

Wed Jan  8 15:01:06 1997  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Port to IRIX 5.3, 6.2.

Mon Jan  6 08:54:00 1997  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: HP-UX 9 support is the same as HP-UX 10, so the
	port is trivial.

	* libtoolize.in: Add --dry-run option, -n for short.

Fri Jan  3 17:26:07 1997  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): On at least SunOS, /bin/sh doesn't
	understand "export something=val".  From Bruno Haible.

Thu Jan  2 13:04:17 1997  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (compile): Recognize valid source file suffixes for
	Fortran and C++.

Tue Dec 17 23:17:17 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Don't allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid
 	object type suffixes, in spite of Automake's current ansi2knr
 	implementation.  Not all compilers allow non-`.o' suffixes.

Mon Dec 16 20:16:35 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Delete the `libtool' version type.

Thu Dec 12 00:04:27 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Use the full autoconf syntax when checking for GNU
	C.  Delete library stripping program, until we have a correct
	test.

Wed Dec 11 11:41:33 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: On AIX 3, use /usr/ucb/nm, not /ucb/nm.  From
	ir. M.M. Kettenis.

Mon Dec  9 12:06:31 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	Reported by Charles Kerr:
	* doc/libtool.texi (Creating Object Files): Doc fix independant ->
	independent.

	* ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs): SunOS 4 doesn't support shared library
	dependencies.

Sun Dec  8 14:39:04 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* Release 0.7.

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add README-automake to the
	distribution.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): When linking libtool libraries, use
	standard objects if they are PIC.  This prevents spurious warnings
	about invalid suffixes on AIX.

	* demo/Makefile.am: Rename libhell to libhello, so that we're not
	quite as offensive.

	* ltconfig.in: Remove unnecessary host validity checking.

	* ltmain.sh.in: Don't force people to use libNAME.la: SOMETHING.la
	is good enough (for consistency with *.a handling).

Sat Dec  7 12:31:15 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Accept files ending in .a as standard
	object files.  Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
	Remove support for creating profiled libraries (for now).
	Transform all library objects into standard objects when linking a
	program.

	* ltconfig.in (thisdir): How embarrassing!  An error in the regexp
	for finding the directory component of the script path.

Thu Dec  5 14:19:21 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (compile): Support `.S' (preprocessed assembler)
 	files.  Reported by Anthony Green.

	* libtoolize.in: Give clearer instrutions for how to update
	aclocal.m4.

	* ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (link): Add support for creating
 	reloadable objects.

Wed Dec  4 00:42:53 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix passing -n flag to `libtool
 	--finish'.
	(compile): Compile `.lo' and `.o' objects at the same time so that
 	non-PIC objects (if they are available) can be used for linking
 	into programs and creating static archives.  Suggested by Ulrich
	Drepper.

Tue Dec  3 10:43:22 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Give the full path to the libtool library
	when sourcing it.

	* ltconfig.in (old_striplib): Do a configuration test to determine
	if old-style libraries actually can be stripped or not.

Mon Dec  2 13:57:28 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Delete reference to ABOUT-LIBS.

	* tests: Added new subdirectory.

	* doc/libtool.texi: Doc fixes, and finished up the Configuring
	chapter.

	* ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid object
	file suffixes, for Automake's ansi2knr implementation.
	New option -version-info replaces -version-file.

	[help]: Give a pointer to mode-specific help when appropriate.

	* ltconfig.in: Changed messages to correspond to AM_PROG_CC_STDC.

	* demo: Also test Automake's ansi2knr support.

Tue Nov 19 14:09:27 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Bug fixes for AIX 4, and for static platforms.

	* ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix for loops over arguments.
	Need to quote ${IFS= } -> "${IFS= }".
	(link): Fix soname_spec bug.  Create objdir whether or not we have
	shared libraries.

	* ltconfig.in: Check for library stripping program.
	Use test -f instead of test -e.

Mon Nov 18 20:10:42 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltconfig.in: Don't run the RANLIB test unless RANLIB wasn't
	set.
	Be verbose about the environment variables we were configured
	with.

	* ltmain.sh.in (objdir): change to .libs.

Sat Nov 16 12:02:03 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in (install): Just plunge ahead with the
	installation... don't try to enforce dependencies.

Fri Nov 15 17:57:36 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh.in: Fix up $libdir to be $dest in install mode.

Sun Nov 10 13:08:04 1996  Gordon Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* ltmain.sh: Finished rewrite of compile, link, and install
	modes.

	* New ChangeLog file for libtool-0.7, since I've totally rewritten
	libtool.

Fri Mar 15 14:21:15 1996  Gord Matzigkeit  <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

	* For historical reasons: this is when I started writing libtool.
