* 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.
* cdemo/main.c: "Welcome _to_ ..."
* mdemo/main.c: ditto
* libltdl/configure.in: support multiple dlopening mechanisms
at once
* libltdl/ltdl.c: prefix system dependent functions with "sys_"
to avoid symbol conflicts (libdld didn't work)
* libtool.m4 (AC_LIBLTDL_*): set INCLTDL to the path of ltdl.h
* ltconfig.in: check for dlopen with -ldl first
installing libltdl's sources.
* instutil/ln: New script to avoid hard-linking libltdl's sources
in the install tree.
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Dist them.
(instal-data-hook): Add srcdir/instutil to the beginning of the
PATH before installing libltdl's sources.
* libltdl/configure.in: Clean up some duplicate defines. Enable
support for multiple dlopening mechanisms.
* libltdl/acconfig.h: New file. Add #undefs for defines that
would be duplicated.
ltconfig if this is set.
(AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL): New macro required for libtool to attempt
a dll build on win32 hosts.
* ltconfig.in (--enable-win32-dll): new flag for the cli.
(cygwin*|mingw*|os2*, ltconfig_enable_win32_dll): if this is not set
to yes, then do not attempt to build shared libraries.
* doc/libtool.texi: document AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL.
* NEWS: noted new macro.
AC_ENABLE_STATIC, AC_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE,
AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE): Warn if they appear after
AC_PROG_LIBTOOL. AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, actually.
(AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Check whether DLOPEN support is to be enabled
at autoconf time, not configure time. Simplify code and
improve (?) help message about --disable-libtool-lock.
* THANKS: added Ossama Othman
* doc/libtool.texi: documented the new `clean' mode
* ltconfig.in: set need_version=no on OSF (reported by
Marcus Sundberg <mackan@stacken.kth.se>)
* ltmain.in: allow absolute non-existant -L paths,
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.
* ltconfig.in (cygwin*, deplibs_check_method): Accept
"architecture: i386" as optional suffix, for it is printed on a
separate line sometimes.
* ltmain.in (cygwin*, ltdll.c): Wrap DllMain declaration in extern "C".
* ltmain.in (deplibs_check_method=file_magic): Redirect stderr to
/dev/null, to suppress error messages from target objdump.
(aix4*, shared_flag): Set to -shared or ${wl}-bM:SRE.
(aix4*, archive_cmds): Use -bexpall.
(aix4*, archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds): Use shared_flag and
allow_undefined_flag.
(aix4*, always_export_symbols): Set to yes up to AIX 4.1.*,
because -bexpall is supported from 4.2 on.
