I want to use the new form of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE to use a global -Wall setting. My current configure.in uses the old method: AC_INIT(src/swish.c) [...] AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE($PACKAGE, $VERSION) And I want to use this new form: AC_INIT($PACKAGE, $VERSION) AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([-Wall]) The problem is that $VERSION can be modified by a configure option, which I can't seem to use unless I call AC_INIT first. VERSION=$MAJOR_VERSION.$MINOR_VERSION.$MICRO_VERSION AC_ARG_ENABLE(daystamp, AC_HELP_STRING([--enable-daystamp], [Adds today's date to version]), daystamp=yes,) if test x$daystamp = xyes; then TODAY=`/bin/date +%Y-%m-%d` VERSION="$VERSION-$TODAY" fi So, two questions: 1) Can I somehow use the new form of AC_INIT and use AC_ARG_ENABLE like above? 2) If not, is there another suggested way to set -Wall globally for all my Makefiles?
