Re: generating a configure script in a subdirectory?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



But the problem with doing it independently is that the user could install the subproject in
a different location of the main project, and the application needs to both be installed
in the same directory to function correctly.


Is this not possible to do?

Cheers,

that with AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS I can run an existing configure script in a
subdirectory, but I don't know how to generate it from configure.in.



Each configure script is normally independently maintained. That means that you can run 'autoconf' in the subdirectory where the subordinate configure script lives to generate the configure script. Some versions of autoreconf may attempt to do this for you (with varying success).
