97ade8120f * ltmain.in: Always use $echo not echo for consistency.
Changes for darwin building. Warn if linking against libs linked
with -module. Use module_cmds if available and building a module,
move convenience double lib check,
* libltdl/ltdl.c: ltdl support for darwin (first blush)
* libltdl/README: note that darwin is supported
* ltdl.m4: Changes for darwin, and for new shrext
* libtool.m4: Changed the way darwin builds stuff (make check passes)
added module_cmds, module_expsym_cmds and hardcode_automatic and put
them in the libtool script. check for zsh's removal of escapes. Allow
libraries to be stripped on darwin.
* TODO: Remove the todo about zsh's removal of excapes. note that zsh
echo works perfectly well, eval is screwed up. Seems to be fixed in
latest zsh.
* THANKS: added self :)
* f77demo/configure.ac: Use config.h or it doesn't work.

  compiler and linker-specific flags,
  add -lc before we do the deplibs check
* ltconfig.in: linkopts -> compiler_flags for $CC and linker_flags
  for $LD, link_all_deplibs=yes on IRIX

7052713ac0 * NEWS: Updated docs.
* TODO: Recommend libtool.m4 to be inserted in acinclude.m4. AIX
4.3.2.0 no longer fails on static dlopening.  GNU DLD no longer
has to support .la files, since libltdl already does.  Convenience
libraries and reloadable objects should be tested in the
testsuite.  We could support some amount of control on the soname
of libraries.
* doc/libtool.texi: Notes about convenience libraries and
automake.  Documented INCLTDL.

obviates it.  Keep only quoting of $PATH, for uniformity with

  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

* 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
* doc/libtool.texi: documented new variable hardcode_into_libs
  and thread_safe_flag_spec, renamed all AM_ENABLE/DISABLE_* macros
  to AC_*, documented AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL and AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
* libltdl/ltdl.c: added two new error messages (cannot_open_error,
  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

64d9b880c5 * merged my inter-library dependencies code from the ILD branch:
* 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.

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

symbols; avoid extracting symbol lists from dlpreopened files
twice; do not filter symbols from dlpreopened libraries

  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
