} I have a question about managing subdirectories with
} autoconf/automake.
}
} Our project contains several independent packages. For
} each package we have a subdirectory and each subdirectory
} has a configure script.
} >From the top level configure script the user should choose
} wether s/he wants to compile a specific package or not.
}
} e.g.: ./configure --enable-gui
}
} By now (and that solution works with autoconf-2.53 and automake-1.6.3)
} we use the AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS macro in the top level configure.in
} file:
}
} if test "x$gui" = xtrue; then
} AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS(Utilities GUI)
} else
} if test "x$model" = xtrue; then
} AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS(Model)
} else
} AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS(Utilities GUI Model)
} fi
} fi
}
} Trying the same code with autoconf-2.57 and automake-1.7.7 results in the
} following error when running automake:
}
} configure.in:29: error: `Utilities' is already registered with
} AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS.
} /usr/local/src/autoconf/autoconf-2.57/lib/autoconf/status.m4:1073:
} AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS is expanded from...
} configure.in:29: the top level
}
} Is there a better/standard solution for our purpose ?
}
This is a shot in the dark (and I haven't tested it) but have you tried
"quoting" the subdirectories above (because they have spaces in their
names)?
So, something like:
AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([Utilities GUI Module])
or something?
