* NEWS: inter-library dependencies are now supported
* configure.in: add the depdemo subdirectory
* depdemo/*: new demo to demonstrate inter-library dependencies
* tests/depdemo*: new tests for depdemo
* ltconfig.in: added hardcode_into_libs (whether library paths
should be hardcoded into the libraries),
it currently defaults to 'no'
* ltmain.in: new internal 'relink' mode to relink libraries
on platforms with hardcode_into_libs=yes, save command line
arguments in libtool_args, accept relative -L directories,
ignore -lm on BeOS and Cygwin, always ignore -lc,
handle -l, -L and .la arguments later, always make the library
installation directory (-rpath) absolute, in relink mode don't
delete the not-relinked library and exit immediately after relinking,
try to find already-installed libtool libraries that were specified
using -l, support hardcoding of library paths into libraries too,
export shlibpath before linking libraries, and a lot of other
big changes that I don't want to describe here... please read
the source.
* merged Gary's Win32 code from the ILD branch:
* NEWS: Win32 DLLs are now supported
* TODO: removed .a library namespace clash for win32. It is
now resolved.
* ltconfig.in (cygwin, library_names_spec): removed $libname.a.
Creating a dll with libtool no longer creates an import library.
* ltconfig.in (extract_expsyms_cmds): Create $objdir if it does
not exist -- i.e. we need to generate import an import library
in a directory which has no libs of its own.
* doc/libtool.texi (old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds,
extract_expsyms_cmds): documented these new variables.
* ltconfig.in (extract_expsyms_cmds): New variable. Commands to
extract the exported symbol list from a dll.
(old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds): New variable. Commands to build
an old archive from the extracted expsyms list.
* ltmain.in: run the cmds in extract_expsyms_cmds and
old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds as necessary.
* ltconfig.in (cygwin, old_archive_from_new_cmds): no longer
required.
* ltconfig.in (cygwin, shlibpath_overrides_runpath): I'm not even
sure whether win32 honours the runpath at all when searching for
a dll to load! Anyway, when set to yes this prevents a gratuitous
warning.
* ltmain.in (deplib): The cygwin environment doesn't actually have
-lm, and although the linker fakes having one, specifiying it to
libtool will break ILD, so we ignore it when generating
dependencies.
avoid introducing multiple --enable options when re-running
config.status
* libltdl/configure.in: if enable_ltdl_* is not set, assume no
* configure.in: if enable_ltdl_install is not set, enable it
configure-work that AC_PROG_LIBTOOL used to do; add
--cache-file=$cache_file to libtool_flags
(AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): call AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, save the cache, run
ltconfig and reload the cache
* configure.in: run AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, then set LIBTOOL_FLAGS to
libtool_flags
* ltconfig.in: support --cache-file switch. If it is used, load
the cache in the beginning and save it just before terminating
always configure libltdl, add libltdl/acinclude.m4 to
ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST, disable installation of libltdl if necessary
* libltdl/Makefile.am: set version info for libltdl.la
* libltdl/configure.in: don't check whether
enable_ltdl_convenience/install was set so that libltdl
can be used as independent package (libltdl.tar.gz) without
the need to use --enable-ltdl*
* libltdl/ltdl.c: minor cleanups, allocate the line cache
dynamically (lt_dlopen)
only if --enable-ltdl-install
(CONF_SUBDIRS): list directories that are configured on demand,
but that must be included in the distribution
(ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST, DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST): generated from CONF_SUBDIRS
* Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): added version 1.3e and
readme-alpha, to handle README-alpha automatically
(EXTRA_DIST): removed README-alpha
(BUILD_SUBDIRS): subdirectories that are always built
(SUBDIRS): BUILD_SUBDIRS plus BUILD_LTDL
(DIST_SUBDIRS): BUILD_SUBDIRS plus CONF_SUBDIRS, from configure
(all-local, check-local): depend on $(ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST), from
configure, and libtool, so that it is built before subdirs
(configure-subdirs): new target
(configure-subdirs, distdir): depend on $(DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST),
from configure
(@DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@): create subdir if needed, then run
configure.
On-demand configuration of subdirs at distribution time was
suggested by Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
depdemo commented out, so that `dist' works before `check'
(BUILD_LTDL): will contain libltdl if --enable-ltdl-install
* Makefile.am (DIST_SUBDIRS): expand SUBDIRS and add depdemo,
commented out
(SUBDIRS): add $(BUILT_LTDL)
* libltdl/Makefile.am (EXTRA_LTLIBRARIES): add libtest.la, the
same as libltdl but always a convenience library. Not built by
default. Both libraries now depend on the libtool script, that
depends on ../libtool and is rebuilt when needed
* mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo, mdemo.debug): depend on and link with
../libltdl/libtest.la, that is rebuilt if needed
(mdemo_LDADD): removed $(LIBADD_M), to avoid silent failures
(foo1.la): renamed from libfoo1.la; test removing the lib prefix
* mdemo/foo1.c: renamed libfoo1_LTX symbols to foo1_LTX
* mdemo/main.c: don't include string.h nor math.h, nor refer to
sin nor cos
* tests/mdemo-exec.test: renamed libfoo1.la to foo1.la
* tests/mdemo-inst.test: ditto
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): build libltdl by default
(DIST_SUBDIRS): simplify distribution of demo and mdemo
(libtool, clibtool, libtoolize, ltconfig, ltmain.sh): add
srcdir where appropriate
(ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST): new rule for maintaining links from
acinclude.m4 to libtool.m4
(*demo/Makefile.in): don't update autoconf/automake files any
more; make check is needed
