Hello everybody, this is a follow-on from a message I posted to gnu-prog-discuss@xxxxxxx, and illuminates a similar problem to the recent `how to prefix definitions in config.h' thread. I am writing a GNU package which provides a library for other GNU packages. The problem is that then multiple config.h's start floating around. Each config.h contains two types of macro: machine-specific ones (e.g. the const macro) and project-specific ones (e.g. the PACKAGE-STRING macro). I generate the config.h.in's exclusively using autoheader, i.e. the config.h.in's are removed with `make maintainer-clean' and are not hand-edited. It would be nice if the machine-specific macros were individually guarded to prevent multiple definition when two config.h's are present, and for the project-specific macros to be prefixed with the package name so that they do not collide. Any thoughts on whether this might be implemented in autoheader some day, or are there workarounds available? /Dale _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
