I don't understand the test objc.test (which fails with one of the
patches I work on).
# Test to make sure LINK defined for Objective C.
echo 'AC_SUBST(OBJC)' >> configure.in
cat > Makefile.am << 'END'
bin_PROGRAMS = foo
foo_SOURCES = foo.m
SUFFIXES = .m
.m.o:
whatever
END
$AUTOMAKE || exit 1
grep '^LINK' Makefile.in
I don't understand why $(LINK) should be (and was) defined.
automake.in says:
# `-pure' is `yes' or `no'. A `pure' language is one where, if
# all the files in a directory are of that language, then we do
# not require the C compiler or any code to call it.
and
®ister_language ('objc', 'linker=OBJCLINK', 'autodep=OBJC',
'flags=OBJCFLAGS',
'compile=$(OBJC) $(DEFS) $(INCLUDES) $(AM_CPPFLAGS)
$(CPPFLAGS) $(AM_OBJCFLAGS) $(OBJCFLAGS)',
'compiler-name=OBJCCOMPILE',
'output-arg=-c -o $@',
'pure=yes',
'm');
so it seems to me that there are no reason for LINK to be defined
here. What is it that I missed?
