* THANKS: Added Rob Collins and Chuck Wilson for their cygwin
work.
From Robert Collins <robert.collins@itdomain.com.au>:
* configure.ac (AC_EXEEXT): Needed for DOSish systems.
* libtool.m4 (shlibpath_overrides_runpath) [cygwin]: Set to yes
when compiling with gcc.
(lt_prog_compiler_pic) [cygwin]: No longer needs the -DDLL_EXPORT
hack, so we just say the pic is the default.
(AC_LIBTOOL_PROG_LD_SHLIBS) [cygwin]: Extract symbols from a
library normally.
[cygwin]: Declare C++ compiler characterisics for g++, taking into
account the new auto-import support in cygwin ld.
* ltmain.in (specialdeplibs) [cygwin]: Be careful about
eliminating duplicate -lgcc's from the link line.
[cygwin]: Be smarter about .exe suffixes.
* demo/configure.ac (AC_EXEEXT, AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL): Support
DOSish systems properly.
* depdemo/configure.ac (AC_EXEEXT, AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL): Ditto.
* demo/Makefile.am (deplibs-check): Allow for .exe suffix. Use
hell_static instead of hell.static for multi-`.' inhibited OSes.
* tests/demo-exec.test: Ditto.
* tests/demo-inst.test: Ditto.
* demo/foo.h [cygwin]: Sanitize cygwin dll support.
* demo/foo.c (_LIBFOO_COMPILATION_): No longer required.
* demo/hello.c (_LIBFOO_COMPILATION_): Ditto.
* depdemo/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Use depdemo_static instead
of depdemo.static for multi-`.' inhibited OSes.
* tests/depdemo-exec.test: Ditto.
* tests/depdemo-inst.test: Ditto.
* mdemo/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Ditto for mdemo.static.
* tests/dryrun.test: Ditto.
* tests/mdemo-exec.test: Ditto.
* tests/mdemo-inst.test: Ditto.
* tests/build-relink.test: Be careful about possible .exe
suffixes.
* tests/noinst-link.test: Allow for .exe suffix.
2001-10-24 H.J. Lu <hjl@gnu.org>
* ltmain.sh: Allow link against an archive when building a
shared library.
* libtool.m4 (lt_cv_deplibs_check_method): Always use
file_magic for Linux ELF.
* configure.ac: Bumped version to 1.4e.
GNU libtool 1.4d was released.
* configure.ac: Bumped version to 1.4d.
* NEWS: updated.
* config.guess, config.sub, texinfo.tex: Synchronised from
ftp.gnu.org.
strlen() returns size_t. argz_len changed to size_t in
foreach_dirinpath() because argzize_path() takes 3rd
argument as size_t, not int. Based on lint run from
Bob Friesenhahn <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>.
consistency with gettext's INTLINCL. Keep the old symbol too for
backwards compatibility.
(AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE): Ditto.
* doc/libtool.texi (Distributing libltdl): Adjust documentation.
support shl_load *and* dlopen, dlopen works correctly only
with a patch. Because we want to avoid the situation where we
build on a system with the patch but deploy on a system without,
use shl_load exclusively if found.
tool support (while still running libtool on cygwin). In that case
PATH_SEPARATOR is ':', but gcc -print-search-dirs still prints its
search path with ';' as separator.
(AC_LIBTOOL_RC, AC_LIBTOOL_LANG_RC_CONFIG): Add support for .rc
files (Windows resource files), compiled by the resource compiler
(windres in mingw) to .o files.
(AC_PROG_NM): Minor bug fix for $PATH elements with spaces in
them.
* configure.ac: Use LT_AC_PROG_RC.
* ltmain.in: Check for .rc files.
* NEWS: Updated.
there is no need for us to preset it anymore.
Be careful not to set IFS="${IFS}$PATH_SEPARATOR" for PATH
splitting, otherwise spaces in directory names will be lost.
Use $PATH_SEPARATOR... don't rely on $ac_path_separator, which was
an autoconf internal until just now, when it disappeared!
* ltmain.in: Default IFS once, at the start.
