Write wrapper functions then, one for each function call you must deal with. Wherever you would call one of the functions, call your wrapper function instead which which contain the necessary #ifdefs to make your code function correctly no matter what libraries are installed. Then the #ifdefs are all in one place. Rich. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
