It depends on what you're trying to check for. If all you're trying to check is whether a particular form of call will work, then check that form of call (as you have). If you want to check for the exact signature, though, then I'd take the address of the function pointer and assign it to a pointer-to-a-pointer-of-a-function of the exact signature that you want. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
