1996-12-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltmain.sh.in (link): Don't allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid
object type suffixes, in spite of Automake's current ansi2knr
implementation. Not all compilers allow non-`.o' suffixes.
1996-12-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltmain.sh.in (link): Delete the `libtool' version type.
1996-12-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltconfig.in: Use the full autoconf syntax when checking for GNU
C. Delete library stripping program, until we have a correct
test.
1996-12-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltconfig.in: On AIX 3, use /usr/ucb/nm, not /ucb/nm. From Mark
Kettenis.
1996-12-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
Reported by Charles Kerr:
* doc/libtool.texi (Creating Object Files): Doc fix independant ->
independent.
* ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs): SunOS 4 doesn't support shared library
dependencies.
1996-12-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* Release 0.7.
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add README-automake to the
distribution.
* ltmain.sh.in (link): When linking libtool libraries, use
standard objects if they are PIC. This prevents spurious warnings
about invalid suffixes on AIX.
* demo/Makefile.am: Rename libhell to libhello, so that we're not
quite as offensive.
* ltconfig.in: Remove unnecessary host validity checking.
* ltmain.sh.in: Don't force people to use libNAME.la: SOMETHING.la
is good enough (for consistency with *.a handling).
* tests/demo.test: Break up into demo-conf.test, demo-make.test,
demo-exec.test, demo-inst.test, and demo-unst.test, so that passes
and failures are reported more quickly.
* tests/link-2.test: Test to make sure that .lo files don't get built
directly into programs.
1996-12-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltmain.sh.in (link): Accept files ending in .a as standard
object files. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
Remove support for creating profiled libraries (for now).
Transform all library objects into standard objects when linking a
program.
* ltconfig.in (thisdir): How embarrassing! An error in the regexp
for finding the directory component of the script path.
* tests/tlibtool: A typically-configured libtool script, that uses
../ltmain.sh.in for its backend.
* tests/link.test: Make sure that it is legal to link against .a files.
1996-12-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltmain.sh.in (compile): Support `.S' (preprocessed assembler)
files. Reported by Anthony Green.
* libtoolize.in: Give clearer instrutions for how to update
aclocal.m4.
* ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (link): Add support for creating
reloadable objects.
1996-12-04 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix passing -n flag to `libtool
--finish'.
(compile): Compile `.lo' and `.o' objects at the same time so that
non-PIC objects (if they are available) can be used for linking
into programs and creating static archives. Suggested by Ulrich
Drepper.
1996-12-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltmain.sh.in (link): Give the full path to the libtool library
when sourcing it.
* ltconfig.in (old_striplib): Do a configuration test to determine
if old-style libraries actually can be stripped or not.
1996-12-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* tests/demo.test: Try compiling the ../demo subdirectory, with no
special options.
* test-e.test: Check that we haven't used `test -e' anywhere in
our portable shell scripts.
1996-12-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltconfig.in: Delete reference to ABOUT-LIBS.
* tests: Added new subdirectory.
* doc/libtool.texi: Doc fixes, and finished up the Configuring
chapter.
* ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid object
file suffixes, for Automake's ansi2knr implementation.
New option -version-info replaces -version-file.
[help]: Give a pointer to mode-specific help when appropriate.
* ltconfig.in: Changed messages to correspond to AM_PROG_CC_STDC.
* demo: Also test Automake's ansi2knr support.
1996-11-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltconfig.in: Bug fixes for AIX 4, and for static platforms.
* ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix for loops over arguments.
Need to quote ${IFS= } -> "${IFS= }".
(link): Fix soname_spec bug. Create objdir whether or not we have
shared libraries.
* ltconfig.in: Check for library stripping program.
Use test -f instead of test -e.
1996-11-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltconfig.in: Don't run the RANLIB test unless RANLIB wasn't
set.
Be verbose about the environment variables we were configured
with.
* ltmain.sh.in (objdir): change to .libs.
1996-11-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltmain.sh.in (install): Just plunge ahead with the
installation... don't try to enforce dependencies.
1996-11-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltmain.sh.in: Fix up $libdir to be $dest in install mode.
1996-11-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* ltmain.sh: Finished rewrite of compile, link, and install
modes.
* New ChangeLog file for libtool-0.7, since I've totally rewritten
libtool.
1996-03-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
* For historical reasons: this is when I started writing libtool.
