# This is a simple script which is meant to help developers
# better deal with the GNU autotools, specifically:
#
# aclocal
# autoheader
# autoconf
# autromake
#
# The whole thing is quite complex...
#
# The idea is to run this collection of tools on a single platform,
# typically the main development platform, running a recent version of
# autoconf. 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.
echo "Running libtoolize"
libtoolize
# --- Step 1: Generate aclocal.m4 from:
# . acinclude.m4
# . config/*.m4 (these files are referenced in acinclude.m4)
echo "Running aclocal"
aclocal
# --- Step 2: Generate config.h.in from:
# . configure.ac (look for AM_CONFIG_HEADER tag or AC_CONFIG_HEADER tag)
echo "Running autoheader"
autoheader
# --- Step 3: Generate configure and include/miaconfig.h from:
# . configure.ac
#
echo "Running autoconf"
autoconf
# --- 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:
# . Makefile.am
# . src/Makefile.am
#
# Using --add-missing --copy makes sure that, if these files are missing,
# they are copied from the system so they can be used in a distribution.
echo "Running automake --add-missing --copy"
automake --add-missing --copy
echo "All done."
echo "To build the software now, do something like:"
echo ""
echo "$ ./configure [--with-debug] [...other options]"
echo "$ make"
