platforms that use -rpath, programs must be finalized at
installation time, otherwise build-tree programs will
prefer installed libraries over build-tree ones
From Chris Laas <golem@MIT.EDU>
* ltmain.in (compile): corrected a typo in compile mode which
caused "gcc: unrecognized option -c-fPIC" errors due to a missing
space.
deplibs_check_method): default to unknown, so that we're
remembered that this needs porting; unknown is interpreted as yes,
yes and none, respectively
(freebsd2*, freebsd3*, sunos4*, need_version): set to yes
(freebsd2*, freebsd3*, library_names_spec): libraries without a
version number are not used by `ld'; add $versuffix;
Reported by Ben Jackson <ben@ben.com>
* ltmain.in (deplibs_check_method): alias unknown to none
(need_version): if vinfo was not provided and release info was,
zero out versuffix only if we don't need_version.
* doc/libtool.texi: document what `unknown' means
1999-01-13 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* ltconfig.in (solaris): Define `deplibs_check_method',
`file_magic_command', `need_lib_prefix' and `sys_lib_search_path'
* ltmain.in (file_magic_regex): Add space before matching pattern,
such that it works on solaris (solaris has a tab between the
library name (including the colon) and the `ELF' and such the
`ELF' will never be matched).
libtool.m4, in last Alexandre Oliva's change to it
(sysv4*, ncr): pass all library dependencies
* ltmain.in (dependency_libs, -R): use `dep' instead of `arg' to
iterate, otherwise we'd overwrite `arg'
(convenience, old_libs): if --disable-shared, convenience
libraries are just old archives, as .lo's are of no use
* tests/cdemo-static.test: print --disable-shared here
* ltmain.in, doc/libtool.texi: documented that -rpath is the same
as -R for programs
* ltmain.in: softened the instructions for linking with installed
libraries, and noted that libtool can be used to link with them;
documented that -rpath is not required for convenience libraries
the files extract from the convenience library. Some systems,
such as FreeBSD2, will add a SYMDEF file, that is not an object
file, and therefore should not be fed to the linker
old-fashioned archive, use a copy of libobjs saved before
convenience libraries are appended
* libltdl/ltdl.h (_LTDLL_EXPORT, _LTDLL_IMPORT): use cygwin or
unix library import/export primitives; this may be convenient for
people willing to create DLLs
(_LTDLL_EXTERN): select _LTDLL_EXPORT or _LTDLL_IMPORT depending
on _LTDL_COMPILE_
* libltdl/ltdl.h, libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlpreopen): new function,
that replaces the current preloaded_symbols list with its
argument, and returns the old value, initially NULL
(dldpre_init): don't refer to dld_preloaded_symbols any more
(dldpre_open, dldpre_sym): search preloaded_symbols
(lt_dlpreopen_default): call lt_dlpreopen with
dld_preloaded_symbols, that is declared as extern; it should be
called from the main program or from some static library without
-no-undefined
(lt_dlerror): new function, that returns the error message for the
last error occurred; the error message is kept in the static
variable last_error
* libltdl/configure.in (enable-ltdl-install): moved back from
enable-install; other packages might use enable-install already,
better have fine grained control over this.
* libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdls.la): discarded
ltdll.c into ltmain.in, to avoid its duplication, and added a sed
script to extract it. Also, create def and base files in $objdir,
and don't remove them after the compilation.
(cygwin, library_names_spec): Create static part of the dll with
suffix -dll.a, to avoid conflicts with actual static libraries.
* ltmain.in: Added ltdll.c, as commented out text
