(cygwin, export_symbols_cmds): Ditto.
* ltmain.in: Generate export symbol list before expanding
convenience libraries, to avoid passing whole_archive_flag_spec to
$NM.
Reported by Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>
* ltconfig.in: set deplibs_check_method=pass_all on FreeBSD,
Linux and Solaris since no one can reproduce the famous deplibs
bug
* ltmain.in: preserve $CC (reported by Tom Tromey),
strip libraries using GNU strip if it's available and the
-s flag was passed to "install"
* TODO: -Wc, -Wl, implemented
* AUTHORS: changed my email address
* doc/libtool.texi: fix "wierd" typo :)
* ltmain.in: linking against convenience libraries was broken,
implemented the "-Wc," "-Wl," "-Xcompiler" "-Xlinker" flag for
compiler and linker-specific flags,
add -lc before we do the deplibs check

always use output_objdir instead of objdir for temporary files,
delete generated temporary symbol lists,
don't add .la twice in the pseudo-library header,
implemented and documented clean mode (deletes libraries,
programs and object files and the files associated with them),
if build_libtool_libs=no and no static library is available,
try to link the program against the shared library,
don't add a statically linked library to the dependency_libs
* ltmain.in (help uninstall): added a missing backslash
after echo (reported by Ossama Othman)
which links to object files we must create. Do not test for empty
pic_flag to create such links. Use objext when searching for
object files extracted from convenience library.
* ltconfig.in (cygwin*, file_magic_cmd): Use autoconf-located target
objdump tool. Track OBJDUMP like DLLTOOL and AS.

of build_libtool_libs to decide whether to use a shared or static
version of a library, when both versions are available.
* libltdl/ltdl.c (shl_close, shl_sym): use (shl_t *) instead of shl_t
* ltconfig.in (check for gcc): removed a bogus line,
check for shl_load in libdld
* ltmain.in: added a warning to the header of the .la file
to warn users against deleting the file,
link shared against static libraries if
deplibs_check_method == pass_all
an exec in the same if construct; otherwise the inline document
may not be removed.
* ltmain.in (--fallback-echo): Likewise.
Reported by John David Anglin <dave.anglin@nrc.ca>

(libtool): Set to `/bin/sh ./libtool' by default, but use LIBTOOL,
SHELL and top_builddir from the environment if available. For dry
runs, use "$libtool -n".

* tests/dryrun.test: new test to check whether the dry-run
mode works properly
* libtool.m4: check for main in libm instead of cos
* ltmain.in: cosmetic fixes, don't try to link libraries only once
(although it's not necessary on many platforms and looks ugly...),
library was linked with the same convenience library by
uniquifying the extract directory. It is now named after the new
library *and* the old one, and lives in the objdir of the new one.
the deplibs check is now optional
* libltdl/configure.in: read libtool --config only once,
merged AC_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE+AC_SYS_NM_PARSE from libtool.m4
* libtool.m4: AC_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE+AC_SYS_NM_PARSE were not
used, lt_dlopen and silent may be empty, AC_SYS_LIBTOOL_CYGWIN
no longer necessary
* ltconfig.in: NM is already checked in libtool.m4,

* ltmain.in: always search for libname.la - don't eval libname_spec,
when linking libraries against static ones just print a warning
and add them to dependency_libs, add -lc before deplibs,
always link all dependencies of a static library or if
link_all_deplibs is yes, hardcode library paths if
hardcode_into_libs is no, don't link against dependency_libs
that already are deplibs
from 1999-03-25; Gary's delay_variable_subst patch from 1999-02-19
obviates it. Keep only quoting of $PATH, for uniformity with
other systems that already did it
* TODO: comments on hardcoding paths into libraries; problem
with shell meta-characters in filenames
* README: updated (BeOS support, no longer shared libraries
support for AmigaOS), cleanups, we have now two mailing lists
* REAMDE-alpha: autogen -> bootstrap, we have now two mailing lists
* THANKS: added Xavier Pianet

put each author in a separate line,
inter-library dependencies on uninstalled libtool libraries are
now supported, cleanups and minor corrections

* Makefile.am: removed libtool.spec
* ltmain.in: use TMPDIR when possible, create a subdirectory
in the temporary directory, added -export-symbols-regex to the help,
its expansion the first time *_cmds variables are eval'ed. Modify
$show within loops that eval them so as to expand variables
* ltconfig.in (*_cmds): quote $ so that they're not expanded by
the first eval
* doc/PLATFORMS: Erez Zadok reported that libtool works on bsdi 4.0.1
* doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): libltdl supports BeOS

didn't exist, partially reverted my previous patch: BeOS will
automatically search in ADDON_PATH
* ltmain.in: don't allow relative run-paths, fixed a typo in a warning,
ignore -dlopen self for libraries and objects,
only accept -L paths that exist, minor cleanups,
bugfix: add -lc for normal libraries, not convenicence libraries
removed offensive warnings/comments
* ltconfig.in: fast-install mode doesn't work for

dlopen_self_static, automatically enable -export-dynamic when
using "-dlopen self", always make run-paths absolute,
ignore -lc only on platforms that don't have such a library,
cleanups in the ILD code, find even installed libtool libraries
that were moved, before generating the DLL-import library we need
to set libname, improved hardcoding of shlibpath for libraries,
don't generate an installable pseudo-library for convenience
libraries, bugfix: export_symbols would be removed immediately
before it is used
* NEWS: improved support for BeOS and Cygwin
* TODO: ILD branch was merged, all internal variables and macros
are now documented
* demo/Makefile.am: use $(LIBS) instead of -lm

cannot_close_error), use them where approriate,
BeOS support (thanks to Xavier Pianet), on BeOS search modules
additionally in ADDON_PATH
* libtool.m4: rewrote AC_CHECK_LIBM: BeOS and Cygwin don't have
libm and *-ncr-sysv4.3* requires libmw

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.
* doc/libltdl.texi (linking with installed libtool libraries):
fixed typo
* doc/libltdl.texi (libltdl): added documentation for building
libtool modules and examples how to embed libltdl
* ltmain.in: don't ignore user-specified run-paths (fixed it
at the right place)
lists the system *run-time* search path. Listed directories are
not implicitly hard-coded into executables.
* ltmain.in: use it, but *never* discard -R flags
* doc/libtool.texi: document it
* NEWS: ditto
Reported by Bob Friesenhahn <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>
output of NM too
(global_symbol_to_cdecl): new variable; convert the output of
global_symbol_pipe to valid C declarations; on HP/UX, convert
text symbols to function declarations
* libtool.m4: similar modifications
* doc/libtool.texi: document new variable
* ltmain.in: use global_symbol_to_cdecl to generate lt_dlpreopened
symbols; avoid extracting symbol lists from dlpreopened files
twice; do not filter symbols from dlpreopened libraries
* TODO: fixed HP/UX dlpreopening problem
(AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): if lt_dlopen=yes, add --enable-dlopen to
libtool_flags; drop --enable-dlopen-self
* ltconfig.in: perform all the dirty work of testing for dlopening
support, because we need platform-dependent equivalents for
-export-dynamic, for self dlopening, and -static, for static self
dlopening
(dlopen_self_static): new configuration variable that is set to
yes only if static programs can dlopen themselves
* ltmain.in (-static, -all-static): dlopen_self=dlopen_self_static
then translate them to the export_symbols format. Now it works,
but it appears to be needlessly extracting the symbol list from
dlpreopened libraries twice
* doc/libtool.texi (libltdl interface): removed the line which
promised that lt_dlopen will return NULL if it can't resolve all
symbols
* libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/configure.in: fixed build problem:
renamed the convenience library to libltdlc.la and the
installed version to libltdl.la
* ltmain.in (wrapper script): replaced the "T" suffix of the program
file name with a "lt-" prefix
* mdemo/Makefile.am: use libltdlc.la
* tests/Makefile.am, tests/demo-nofast.test: added demo to
test --enable-fast-install=no
need relink; in the other cases, set it to needless
* ltmain.in (fast_install): if needless, set relink_command empty
* doc/libtool.texi (fast_install, shlibpath_overrides_runpath):
document the new behavior
* demo/configure.in: use AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
* libtool.m4: added AC_ENABLE/DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL macro
* ltconfig.in: added --disable-fast-install flag
* ltmain.in: partially reverted Alexandre's patch and implemented
on-demand linking in such a way that the old developer-friendly
linking style is optional,
don't hardcode library paths that are in the system search path,
fixed a typo in lib_search_path,
implemented -export-symbols-regex for programs
and rename it to $progdir/$program only when it's finished, to
avoid race conditions. We can still get the program linked
multiple times, if multiple instances are started simultaneously
and the program does not exist, but they are very unlikely to
interfere with each other. There's still a possibility that one
process removes the $program another has just created, and doesn't
replace it before the other tries to run it, in a system whose
`mv' is not atomic, so it will $rm then $mv, but so what? :-)
Locking files have been avoided to prevent dead-locks in case they
are left over after a reboot or crash.
just warn if it can't be removed; add wrapper code to test whether
the install-executable is newer than the build-executable, to
relink it when it appears to be out-of-date
when dlopening the executable
* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN): removed the redundant "yes: "
prefix for lt_cv_dlopen, renamed lt_cv_dlopen_LIBS
to lt_cv_dlopen_libs (more consistent)
* ltmain.in: implemented -dl[pre]open self, necessary for
lt_dlopen(NULL), generation of exported symbols was broken
determines whether LD_LIBRARY_PATH or equivalent can be used to
override a hard-coded library search path; default to unknown
(linux-gnu*): set it to no
(solaris*, sunos4*): set it to yes
* ltmain.in (build_libdirs_flags, build_libdirs, build_rpath): if
shlibpath_overrides_runpath is not yes, arrange that wrapper
scripts create, on demand, programs that use uninstalled libraries
* doc/libtool.texi: document it
export_symbols_cmd.
(cygwin, mingw): Be sure to compile the ltdll.c object before
extracting the exported symbol list. Extract only the names
of the exported symbols from the def file [otherwise we might
run into trouble with -export-symbols-regex].
(archive_expsym_cmds): Regenerate the def file from the symbol
export list.
(delay_variable_subst): New sed expression to allow us to delay
evaluation of $foo in a double_quote_subst evaluated variable by
using $.
* ltmain.in (export_symbols_cmds): evaluate each ~ delimitted cmd
separately.
* doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents): new paragraph to
explain the difference between _cmd and _cmds suffixes for
variable names.
(export_symbols_cmds): renamed from export_symbols_cmd.
used under win32 to extract a def file (symbol export list) from a
dll that has none. Code to use it might need to wait for the ILD
merge before it will be useful...
* autogen: only libltdl needs autoheader
* doc/libtool.texi (link mode): documented -export-symbols-regex
and updated -export-symbols
* doc/libtool.texi (script contents): documented
always_export_symbols, export_symbols_cmd, exclude_expsyms,
include_expsyms, dlopen and dlopen_self
more detailed description of need_lib_prefix
* ltconfig.in: a "'" was missing in the default value
of export_symbols_cmd
* ltmain.in: implemented -export-symbols-regex
* cdemo/foo1.c: renamed to foo.c
* libltdl/ltdl.c: eliminated lt_dltype, in presym_open():
search for @PROGRAM@ if filename == 0, in lt_dlopen():
fixed bug for filename == 0
* libltdl/ltdl.h: use __P macro for lt_dlmalloc/free
* libtool.m4: new macro AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN: checks for dlopen
and dlopen(NULL) support
* ltconfig.in: added new variables dlopen and dlopen_self,
--enable-dlopen[-self] flags for AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
* ltmain.in: use dlopen[_self], dlpreopen files if there's no
dlopen support, build lt_preloaded_symbols only if
-dl[pre]open was used, include program symbols if -export-dynamic
was specified and there's no dlopen(NULL) support
* mdemo/configure.in: use AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
* mdemo/main.c: demonstrate lt_dlopen(0)
* *demo/configure.in: use AC_CHECK_LIBM

added always_export_symbols, export_symbols_cmd, exclude_expsyms,
include_expsyms, removed archive_cmds for cygwin/mingw and AIX,
on Solaris store the exported symbols list in objdir
* ltmain.in: allow -export-symbols for modules, use thread_safe flag,
add include_expsyms to the exported symbols
* demo/Makefile.am: renamed hell.debug to hell.static
(we're demonstrating static linking, not debugging)
* tests/demo*: ditto
* doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): documented new lt_dlopen(NULL)
feature
* libltdl/acconfig.h: required for config.h
* libltdl/configure.in: use config.h
* libltdl/ltdl.c: use config.h, support lt_dlopen(NULL)
(returns a handle for the program itself)
* ltconfig.in: minor reformatting
* ltmain.in: in lt_preloaded_symbols always define
the program's symbols first, for -export-dynamic list all
program symbols together, -export-symbols was broken for
programs, minor reformatting
* mdemo/Makefile.am: renamed mdemo.debug to mdemo.static
* tests/mdemo*: ditto, mdemo.test was completely broken
*-*-cygwin32. sed -e 's%(cygwin|mingw)32%1%g' ltconfig.in
* ltmain.in: sed -e 's%(cygwin|mingw)32%1%g' ltmain.in
* ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec, allow_undefined_flag,
archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds, old_archive_from_new_cmds):
removed duplication of config by assuming that `test $with_gcc =
yes' implies gnu ld, otherwise MSVC++ (which I haven't tested
since I inheritted the code from Ian Lance Taylor btw!) is implied.
1999-01-25; "don't try to use .o instead of .lo just because
there's no PIC flag. It loses if --disable-static, and there's
not much point if we're referring to the same file anyway...",
because not all linkers will accept .lo object names.
* ltmain.in: In the case where --disable-static is specified (as
noted in Alexandre's log entry), we just link some .o files to
prevent the original error.
Reported by Andrey Slepuhin <pooh@msu.ru>
* demo/configure.in: likewise
* depdemo/configure.in: likewise
* libltdl/configure.in: likewise
* mdemo/configure.in: likewise
* libltdl/ltdl.c: in find_module() check whether libdir is defined,
tryall_dlopen(): move deallocation of an already opened handle
to lt_dlopen(), allocate the directory in lt_dlopen() dynamically,
minor cleanups, fixed memory leak (name)
* libtool.m4: renamed all AM_ macros to AC_ and added aliases for
compatibilty, updated AC_SYS_NM_PARSE (no undefined symbols,
don't count the symbols)
* ltconfig.in: added thread_safe_flag_spec (not used yet),
added generic variable for linker options "linkopts" in
all archive_cmds
* ltmain.in: added -thread-safe flag (unused)
more general regular expressions
(file_regex): remove it; the name is misleading, it's not used
* ltconfig.in, doc/libtool.texi: ditto
* ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*, deplibs_check_method): extend regex to
support `LSB dynamic lib' in the output of `file'
Reported by Scott D. Heavner <sdh@po.cwru.edu>
dependency_libs only just before creating the .la file; they
should not be passed to the C compiler or linker at
library-creation time, since we don't know whether it is supported
(timestamps, update-timestamps): check whether TSDEPS_DIST are
up-to-date and update ltconfig and ltmain.sh if needed
(ltconfig, ltmain.sh): depend on TSDEPS; replace @TIMESTAMP@ with
the Date tag in the ChangeLog
(TSDEPS): empty unless overridden by update-timestamps

references to VERSION
link libraries with dependencies on .la libs.
