`configure.ac' to be more like AC_INIT and accept a space
delimited list of options. Instead of calling `AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN;
AC_PROG_LIBTOOL', we now recommend `LT_INIT([dlopen])':
* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, _AC_PROG_LIBTOOL)
(AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Removed. Added AU_DEFUNs.
(LT_INIT): Replace with an Autoconf like interface which accepts a
version number as a minimum required libtool release at configure
time.
* m4/ltoptions.m4: New file inspired by automake/m4/amoptions.m4,
which additionally flags an error if the configuring libtool
macros are not new enough according to LT_INIT.
(LT_OPTION_DEFINE): New macro to declare option handlers.
(dlopen, win32-dll, shared, disable-shared, static)
(disable-static, fast-install, disable-fast-install, pic-only)
(no-pic): Newly LT_OPTION_DEFINEd option handlers that use...
(_LT_ENABLE_SHARED, _LT_ENABLE_STATIC, _LT_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL)
(_LT_WITH_PIC, _LT_WIN32_DLL): New macros to handle
LT_LIBTOOL_INIT options...
* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_ENABLE_SHARED, AC_ENABLE_STATIC)
(AC_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN, AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL):
...to replace these user interface macros, now defined as
AU_DEFUNs.
(AC_DISABLE_SHARED, AC_DISABLE_STATIC, AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL):
Removed. No longer required with LT_INIT_LIBTOOL interface.
Added AU_DEFUNs.
(AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC)
(AM_DISABLE_STATIC): Changed AU_DEFUNs to match new interface.
(_LT_SETUP): Internal to LT_INIT, replaces AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP.
* m4/lt~obsolete.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, _AC_PROG_LIBTOOL)
(_LT_PROG_LTMAIN): More AC_DEFUNs that have been retracted.
* configure.ac: Use new interface.
* doc/libtool.texi: Document new interface.
* NEWS: Updated.
tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo2/configure.ac,
tests/pdemo/configure.ac, tests/tagdemo/configure.ac: Declare just
the tags we need using AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, reducing the size of the
configure script by 50% in most cases.
then tweak the results by hand:
* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD): In common with all the other
AC_PROG_ macros, AC_SUBST the discovered LD.
(AC_PROG_NM): Similarly for NM.
(LT_AC_PROG_SED): Similarly for SED.
* configure.ac: No need to SUBST NM and LD manually any more.
(AC_PREREQ): Conservatively downgrade from 2.59 to 2.54.
* tests/cdemo/configure.ac, tests/demo/configure.ac,
tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo2/configure.ac,
tests/pdemo/configure.ac, tests/tagdemo/configure.ac: Ditto.
* m4/libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL, AM_ENABLE_SHARED,
AM_ENABLE_STATIC, AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_STATIC,
AM_PROG_LD, AM_PROG_NM): AU_DEFUN these macros so autoupdate can
use the newer definitions.
tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo2/configure.ac,
tests/pdemo/configure.ac, tests/tagdemo/configure.ac:
s/AM_PROG_LIBTOOL/AC_PROG_LIBTOOL/. Marching boldly into the 21th
century :-$
