In theory, if we had these tools on each platform where we # ever expected to port the software, we would never need to checkin # more than a few autotools configuration files. However, the whole # idea is to generate a configure script and associated files in a way # that is portable across platforms, so we *have* to check in a whole # bunch of files generated by all these tools. # The real source files are: # # acinclude.m4 (used by aclocal) # configure.ac (main autoconf file) # Makefile.am, */Makefile.am (automake config files) # # All the rest is auto-generated. if [ "$1" = "clean" ]; then echo "Cleaning..." rm configure aclocal.m4 rm m4/* rmdir m4 rm config/* rmdir config find . -iname "Makefile.in" -type f -exec rm '{}' + fi # Prevent any errors that might result from failing to properly invoke `libtoolize` or `glibtoolize,` whichever # is present on your system, from occurring by testing for its existence and capturing the absolute path to its # location for caching purposes prior to using it later on in 'Step 2:' if command -v libtoolize >/dev/null 2>&1; then LIBTOOLIZE="$(command -v libtoolize)" elif command -v glibtoolize >/dev/null 2>&1; then LIBTOOLIZE="$(command -v glibtoolize)" else echo "Unable to find a valid copy of libtoolize in your PATH!" bail_out fi # create m4 directory if it not exists if [ ! -d m4 ]; then mkdir m4 fi bail_out() { echo echo " Something went wrong, bailing out!" echo exit 1 } # --- Step 1: Generate aclocal.m4 from: # . acinclude.m4 # . config/*.m4 (these files are referenced in acinclude.m4) mkdir -p config echo "Running aclocal" aclocal -I config || bail_out # --- Step 2: echo "Running libtoolize" $LIBTOOLIZE -f -c || bail_out $LIBTOOLIZE --automake || bail_out # --- Step 3: Generate config.h.in from: # . configure.ac (look for AM_CONFIG_HEADER tag or AC_CONFIG_HEADER tag) echo "Running autoheader" autoheader -f || bail_out # --- Step 4: Generate Makefile.in, src/Makefile.in, and a whole bunch of # files in config (config.guess, config.sub, depcomp, # install-sh, missing, mkinstalldirs) plus COPYING and # INSTALL from: # .
