It would require a library and a program, e.g.: Ouch. While I see why you need more than one translation unit here, the example seems very unfortunate to me: it's a very ugly and non-intuitive way of coding IMVHO. Could you provide a useful example, i.e. one for which it would make sense to adapt a piece of intended-to-be-portable software to? To put it another way: with that example, you did not convince me of the usefulness. IME the autoconf developers are less easily convinced than I am. :) Regards, Ralf _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
